Relationship between soil physical properties and cocoa yield in no-till renovated orchards in southern Bahia, Brazil [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo
In southern Bahia, Brazil, cocoa trees (Theobroma cacao L.) are grown in soils with varied physical properties. As many orchards in the region have surpassed their productive lifespan, renewal is crucial for increasing productivity.

Effect of Biochar Application on Hydraulic Properties of Sandy Soil under Dry and Wet Conditions

Vadose Zone Journal, 2018
Knowledge of soil hydraulic properties under dry (below permanent wilting point) and wet (from saturation to permanent wilting point) conditions is helpful for evaluating soil physical quality and modeling the movement of the substances (water and ...

Amorphous silica amendment to improve sandy soils’ hydraulic properties for sustained plant root access under drying conditions

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Climate scenarios predict more frequent and longer drought periods, potentially threatening agricultural yield. The water holding capacity of soils is crucial in controlling drought stress intensity for plants. Recently, amorphous silica was suggested to

Effects of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza Fungi and Coffee Pulp Compost in Improving Soil Water Uptake by Chilli Around the Permanent Wilting Point Conditions [PDF]

, 2020
Soil water availability to the plants is a range of water content between the field capacity and the permanent wilting point (PWP) conditions. The PWP is defined as the lower limit of soil water content that the plant can extract water from the soil as ...

Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.

Real‐time monitoring of root dielectric properties for assessing crop plant damage caused by foliar application of glyphosate

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise There is a knowledge gap regarding how foliar injury and restricted water uptake can be detected by measuring root dielectric response. This pot study nondestructively evaluated the efficiency of real‐time dielectric measurement to monitor the effects of glyphosate spraying.
