Socio‐Economic Impacts, Farmer Perception and Management Responses to the Invasive Weed Parthenium hysterophorus L. in Uganda

Weed Research, Volume 66, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT The invasive weed Parthenium hysterophorus L. presents a severe socio‐economic threat to Ugandan agriculture. This nationwide study of 244 farmers in infested districts reveals near‐universal recognition of the weed and widespread negative impacts: 88.3% of the farmers report increased labour demands, 62.1% cite yield reduction and significant

Effects of deficit irrigation and biostimulants on melon productivity and quality in semi‐arid conditions

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 11, Page 6348-6364, 30 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Water scarcity and soil salinization are major constraints to irrigated agriculture in semi‐arid regions, affecting crop productivity and fruit quality. Combining deficit irrigation with biostimulant application has emerged as a promising strategy to improve water use efficiency and plant stress tolerance.

From Knowledge to Practice: Information Access, Smallholders' Behavior, and the Adoption of Climate‐Resilient Soil Management Practices in Coastal Cameroon

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10022-10034, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers in coastal Cameroon face accelerating soil degradation and climate variability. However, the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices (SAPs) remains uneven. This study examines how information behavior and motivational objectives shape SAP adoption in the Tiko municipality using a cross‐sectional survey of 122 ...
