Formalin Destruction of Salmonellae in Poultry Litter
Litter was sprayed with 2%, 4%, and 6% formalin solutions both with and without litter turnover after contamination either on the surface or by mixing well with feces containing salmonellae. Results showed that 4% and 6% formalin applied to the litter by a turnover, spray, turnover, spray, turnover, spray procedure completely destroyed the salmonellae.

ABSTRACT Soil quality assessment is essential to detect management failures and prevent land degradation in agricultural systems. No‐tillage system (NTS) is a conservation management widely adopted in Brazil, but its effectiveness is compromised when adherence to the core principles of crop rotation and ground cover is not complete, and basic ...

ABSTRACT Low maize yields in Mozambique remain a major constraint to food security, primarily due to soil nutrient depletion and limited access to affordable fertilizers among smallholder farmers. Integrated nutrient management, combining organic and mineral inputs, offers a promising approach to improve both productivity and soil health.

ABSTRACT Soil carbon–nitrogen pools are central to soil health, yet their responses to conservation‐oriented management remain insufficiently quantified in tropical agroecosystems. This study evaluated soil carbon–nitrogen pools, stocks and soil health indicators across conventionally managed arable land (CMA), no‐till‐based conservation systems with 2,

Microplastics Toxicity and Life‐Threatening Impact on the Arabian Gulf: A Critical Review
ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) have emerged as a pervasive pollutant in marine environments worldwide, yet the Arabian Gulf remains underrepresented in global assessments despite its ecological and economic significance. The estimated mass of MPs entering the water of the Gulf ranged from 155 to 413.4 kt per year.

Abstract Reactive nitrogen (Nr) gases (NH3, N2O, and NO) emitted from agricultural fields constitute a substantial portion of the Nr flux from land to the atmosphere. Here, we coupled the Flows of Agricultural Nitrogen (FANv3) with a modified version of the Community Land Model (CLM5.1) to produce a model (CLM‐FANv3) that simulates the emissions of NH3,
