Biostimulant effects of Rugulopteryx okamurae aqueous extracts on radish growth

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract In recent years, the invasive algae Rugulopteryx okamurae has spread along the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts, causing ecological and economic damage. However, upwelling algae could provide a valuable source of carbon biomass for circular economy applications. Marine algae, particularly brown algae, have a long history of use in agriculture

Evaluation of Chemical Weed-Control Strategies for Common Vetch (Vicia sativa L.) and Sweet White Lupine (Lupinus albus L.) Under Field Conditions

Agronomy
Seed production of common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) and sweet white lupine (Lupinus albus L.) is risky due to weed infestation as few herbicides are permitted for use in crops.

Soil acidity stress: A faba bean (Vicia faba L.) cultivation challenge in Ethiopia, mitigation, and future perspectives

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil acidity is among the most important abiotic stresses globally constraining agricultural land and crop productivity. Globally, about 30%–40% of total arable land is under the influence of acidic soil. In Ethiopia, approximately 43% of arable land and productive areas are constrained by acidic soil.

Disease control with quality compost in pot and field trials [PDF]

, 2005
Quality compost can have a positive effect on soil fertility and plant growth and health. This positive effect is not only observable in the laboratory, but also by growers. Phytopathological problems could be solved with the use of compost.

Exploring the role of exogenous salicylic acid in cereals resilience to water deficit stress: Advances and challenges

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Salicylic acid (SA) is an elicitor of abiotic stress tolerance in plants, but a comparative analysis of its effects across cereals remains under‐explored. This review article assesses the literature on the biological functioning of exogenous SA application (foliar‐ or root‐applied) in water‐stressed cereals.

Key management practices driving soybean yield variability in lowland fields of southern Brazil

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] production in the lowlands of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, covers more than 50% of the area traditionally cropped with irrigated rice. However, soybean yields in lowland fields average 3.0 Mg ha−1, which is well below the potential yield (6.2 Mg ha−1) estimated for highland areas.

Weed Control in Annual Strawberries Grown with Plastic Mulch: Efficacy, Phytotoxicity, and Soil Persistence Studies [PDF]

, 1987
Cool soil temperatures in Alaska are a limiting factor for many crops. Clear plastic mulch has been shown to increase soil temperatures, and use of this mulch has allowed the production of many warm season crops farther north than they could otherwise ...

Copper and zinc speciation in pig slurry: implications on mobility and bioavailability in soils [PDF]

, 2011
The fate of pollutants associated with organic wastes is a key issue. For example, pig slurry presents high concentration of Copper (Cu) and Zinc (Zn) since they are used (at high concentration) as essential micronutrients in animal feeds.

Screening of Native Plant Species in the Artisanal Gold Mining Sites of Doko, Guinea: Perspectives for Phytoremediation

CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study focuses on phytoremediation in a gold mining‐contaminated area in Doko, Guinea. Plant, soil, and rhizospheric soil samples were collected and subjected to physicochemical analyses to quantify heavy metal content. Biological indicators: bioconcentration factor (BCF), translocation factor (TF), and biological accumulation coefficient (BAC ...
