Residual effects of organic mulches on agrocenosis
, 2014 In the organic cropping system, with the use of soil mulching it is possible to significantly reduce weed incidence in a crop stand, to enrich the soil with nutrients and to obtain the highest yield of satisfactory quality. Having discontinued mulching, its residual effect on agricultural crops persists.

Wheat Yield Response to Organic Fertilisers Depends on Drought Timing in a Sandy Soil
Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT Organic fertilisers enhance crop drought resilience by improving nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) use efficiency and soil‐plant water relations. However, the underlying mechanisms governing their effects across different drought timings in wheat under sandy soils remain unclear.

Pollution to Solution: Understanding and Addressing Microplastic Contamination in the Environment
Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.ABSTRACT In general, plastic pollution results from the unintentional release of macroplastic materials into the environment as well as the deliberate production and usage of small plastic particles (micro‐ and nano‐sized plastic particles) in a variety of consumer products micro and nanoplastics in filtrate freshwater and marine environments because ...

Organic mulching impacts on vegetable crop production
, 2014 A sustainable approach seems to be the better way to resolve the sustainability issue of human activities. Among all the anthropogenic activities that have had negative impact on the environment, the agriculture results to be the main sector in changing land use, depleting earth’s resources or polluting the environment.

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Substrates added to peatland soils through anthropogenic disturbance alter carbon cycling and can shift these ecosystems from sinks to sources of atmospheric carbon. Isolating the direct influence these substrates have on peatland carbon cycling can be a challenge in field‐based studies due to interacting effects of vegetation and ...
