The Capital–Labour–State Dynamics of Herbicide Adoption in Rainfed India

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper engages debates around the capital–labour–state dynamics of agrarian transitions to address the oft‐studied but still little‐understood question of why farmers adopt herbicides when they do. Over the last several years, smallholder farmers in India have begun using the herbicide bispyribac sodium at breakneck speeds, particularly in

Dependent Articulation in the Global Pesticide Complex: Argentina's Agrochemical Industry After the Generics Market Revolution

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the late 1990s, the pesticide industry has undergone a ‘generics revolution’ as the centre of production, and trade has shifted to the global South. China and India have become major producers, capturing Latin American markets from Northern multinationals. As a major pesticide user and a key node in global supply chains, Argentina offers

Pesticide Supply Chains From China to Australia: Examining Paraquat Amid the Global Pesticide Complex

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following recent calls to deepen understanding of the Global Pesticide Complex, this article delves into the China‐to‐Australia supply chain of a single herbicide—paraquat. First released in the United Kingdom in the 1960s, acutely toxic paraquat is now primarily produced in China.

Protecting While Promoting? The Limits of Agroindustry‐Driven Pesticide Safety in Ugandan Smallholder Agriculture

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pesticide use is expanding rapidly across sub‐Saharan Africa, while regulatory oversight and public protection structures remain weak, leaving smallholder farmers exposed to mounting health and environmental risks. In response, agrochemical industry actors have launched ‘safe use’ initiatives that emphasize training and personal protective ...

Selectivity and efficiency of pre-emergent herbicides on cassava crop

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2013
The chemical control of weeds stands out as an important tool for obtaining high yields in cassava crops. This study aimed at evaluating the selectivity and efficiency of pre-emergent herbicides on cassava (‘Cascuda’ cultivar) crop. The experimental design was randomized blocks, with ten treatments and four replications.

Patent landscape analysis of inventions based on plant genetic resources for food and agriculture and related digital sequence information

The Journal of World Intellectual Property, EarlyView.
Abstract This article provides an overview of the patent landscape in relation to PGRFA‐based inventions involving naturally occurring (“native”) traits and related Digital Sequence Information/Genetic Sequence Data (DSI/GSD). In particular, it focuses on the potential of patent claims to limit others' uses of PGRFA and related DSI/GSD on which the ...

Genetic and Phenotypic Diversity of European Triticale: GWAS of Yellow Rust Resistance and Agronomic Traits

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Triticale (x Triticosecale Wittmack) is an interspecific hybrid of wheat and rye. It is a promising grain and forage crop that thrives in poorer soils and low‐input farming systems. It can serve as a viable alternative to traditional small grains such as wheat and barley, bringing diversity to crop rotations and enhancing biodiversity in ...
