Key soil health indicators under humid grazing lands
Grassland Research, EarlyView.Soil health can be described using a few key soil health indicators that target a diversity of soil functions. This perspective article highlights how forage management affects these soil health indicators in humid‐zone grazing lands. Abstract Background Soil health describes critical soil functions influenced by land management. Although some key soil

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.This study demonstrates the detrimental effects of exogenous uric acid (UA) on the growth of black soldier fly (BSF) larvae, highlighting the role of gut microbiota in UA degradation. We isolated UA‐degrading bacterial strains associated with BSF, including Enterococcus faecalis AHAU24.

Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2004 The effect of pH, time and concentration on the extractability of potassium from five types of organic manures (cow dung, local chickens, duck and commercial chickens, faeces on bedded and unbedded floor) were studied. Experiments were conducted in water

REDUCTION OF LEAKAGE FROM ORGANIC MANURE
Environment. Technology. Resources. Proceedings of the International Scientific and Practical Conference, 2001 Environmental problems of leakage minimisation from solid manure handling in Latvia are discussed. Volume and composition of leakage from solid manure are investigated in storage period. Amount of plant nutrients in effluents are measured 0,099 kg nitrogen, 0,029 kg phosphorus and 0,381 kg potassium per tonne manure in 14-day period of accumulation and

Effect of plant biomass and their incorporation depth on organic wheat produc-tion in Kenya [PDF]
, 2007 Intensive agricultural technologies introduced in Africa some six decades ago paved the way for extensive land clearing and destruction of organic materials, development of high yielding crop varieties under monoculture and replacement of landraces.

Resistome flow in global landfill systems
iMetaOmics, EarlyView.Global landfill systems represent key hubs of resistome, serving as dynamic reservoirs and amplifiers through plasmid‐driven gene mobility. Waste flows and environmental pathways sustain the transboundary resistome networks, accelerating resistance dissemination across ecosystems.
