Humate application alters microbiota–mineral interactions and assists in pasture dieback recovery

Heliyon, 2023
Pasture dieback is a rapidly expanding decaying pasture syndrome that affects millions of hectares of agricultural land in Queensland, Australia, making it useless for the cattle industry and decimating farmers’ income and welfare. Since the syndrome was

Defining the pollinator garden: is conceptual flexibility a feature or a bug?

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Ecologists often aim to reduce conceptual ambiguity by attempting to create rigid shared lexicons. These efforts imply that ambiguity is undesirable. In some contexts, however, conceptual flexibility comes with under‐discussed benefits. Here, we use the lens of pollinator gardening to explore how conceptual flexibility is built into participatory ...

Developing an extreme learning machine based approach to weed segmentation in pastures

Smart Agricultural Technology, 2023
Effective weed management in pastures is critical for maintaining the productivity of grazing land. Autonomous ground vehicles (AGVs) are increasingly being considered for weed localization and treatment in agricultural land.

Climate change effects on biomass and greenhouse gas emissions are ameliorated by nontoxic endophytes in southeastern USA transition zone tall fescue pastures

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Tall fescue produces more biomass and less carbon dioxide from the soil when it contains its beneficial fungal endophyte. Increased temperatures projected with climate change reduce fescue biomass, while altered rainfall frequency does not. Altering rainfall frequency and increasing temperatures can reduce carbon dioxide emissions from soil.

Biomass Carbon in Harvest Residues of Winter Oilseed Rape Across Fertilizer N Rates: Implications for Carbon Input Estimations in Soil Carbon Models

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Reliable estimation of carbon (C) inputs from above‐ and belowground residues at different yield levels is crucial, as these inputs drive soil organic carbon (SOC) models for C accounting. Aims: This study quantifies C inputs from different components of winter oilseed rape (WOSR) and compares them with estimates from various ...
