Machine Vision‐Based Morphological Benchmarking and Extrusion Optimization of Analog Rice: A Digital Image Analysis Framework for Agricultural Grain Quality Evaluation

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
A low‐cost Python‐based machine vision framework quantified rice morphology and optimized analog‐rice extrusion. Within the tested range, 50 Hz screw speed and 45 Hz cutter speed produced grains with 96.6% morphological similarity to the commercial Pusa Basmati 1121 reference.

Preharvest supplemental lighting enhances productivity and modulates postharvest quality in hydroponically grown Apulian unripe melon ‘Scopatizzo’ ( Cucumis melo L.)

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 13, Page 7666-7681, October 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Preharvest light management is increasingly used to enhance yield and fruit quality in soilless systems, yet its effects on unripe melon fruits remain poorly understood. This study evaluated the impact of supplemental red–blue light‐emitting diode (LED) lighting applied during cultivation in a closed‐cycle hydroponic system on ...

Phenotypic, physicochemical, sensory, and functional attributes of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) from Brazilian Amazonian floodplain and upland ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 13, Page 7775-7783, October 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) from the Brazilian Amazon plays an important role in national production. While most cocoa is cultivated in upland systems, floodplain ecosystems represent a traditional and distinct production environment that may influence bean composition and quality.

Application of Omics Technologies for Cowpea Improvement

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is a vital crop for food security, nutrition, and climate resilience in sub‐Saharan African and other semi‐arid regions. However, its improvement is constrained by the complexity of polygenic traits such as drought tolerance, pest resistance, and seed quality.
