Interseeding sainfoin with alfalfa offers early‐season increase in forage production
Abstract Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is a widely cultivated forage legume valued for its high forage mass and nutritive value but is often associated with pasture bloat in ruminants. Interseeding alfalfa with sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia), a tannin‐rich legume known for its anti‐bloating properties and environmental benefits, has emerged as a ...

Abstract Agricultural practices are constantly evolving due to changes in regulation, climate, and technology. Regulations in California resulted in phasing out rice (Oryza sativa L.) straw burning in the 1990s, leading to a range of alternative practices to manage the straw, which impact agronomic practices, air quality, ecosystem services, and ...

The Senecio matatini complex in New Zealand has a convoluted taxonomic and nomenclatural history that has not been fully resolved. This is largely due to the incomplete sampling of morphologically diverse but highly threatened limestone populations in the eastern South Island in previous genetic studies.

Implementing potential climate‐smart practices through diverse partnerships
Climate change is one of the greatest threats to society, negatively impacting agriculture and crop yields. Globally, agriculture is also one of the largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitting sectors. Climate‐smart practices that are developed through diverse partnerships with scientists and practitioners are needed to decrease GHG emissions. We implemented
