Innovation in pest management: can the past inform the future?

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Progress in pest management occurred incrementally, but occasionally, transformative discoveries introduced disruptive technologies. Looking ahead, generative artificial intelligence is expected to accelerate agricultural discovery by integrating vast datasets from mechanization, genetics, and chemistry.

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Intercropping mitigates incidence of the oilseed rape insect pest complex

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Intercropping reduces the incidence of the oilseed rape insect pest complex with a significant impact of the direct visual and physical disruption provided by the companion plant. Abstract BACKGROUND Oilseed rape (OSR, Brassica napus) is a major crop requiring numerous phytosanitary treatments.

Farmers’ Preferences for Sustainable Crop Protection: An Integrated Choice and Latent Variable Approach

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analyzes farmers' preferences for sustainable crop protection, focusing on Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices by incorporating social‐psychological factors to capture economic and behavioral dimensions. Using data from German and Polish potato farmers, we apply an integrated choice and latent variable framework that combines

Effects of Pre-Emergence Herbicides on Weed Control and Yield of Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) in Central Italy

Agronomy
Safflower is a multipurpose crop with several uses that can offer benefits to rainfed cereal-based cropping systems due to its tolerance to cold, drought, salinity, and its reduced need for agricultural inputs.

Antimicrobial Residues in a Key Cerrado River: Distribution, Persistence, and Effects on Zebrafish Embryo‐Larval Development

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The current study aimed to quantify the antimicrobials amoxicillin (AMX), cefazolin (CFZ), chloramphenicol (CHL), metronidazole (MTZ), and sulfamethoxazole (SX) in effluents and surface water of an important Cerrado river, calculate their half‐lives, and analyze their ecotoxicity following single and combined exposures.

Using programmable infusion pump in avian species – a validation methodology in geese

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife face anthropogenic and natural stressors that affect their physiology and behaviour. The activity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and glucocorticoid (GC) production is intrinsically linked with energy regulation and environmental stressors.

Efficacy and Rice Phytotoxicity of Different Tank-Mix Ratios of Pre-Emergence Herbicide in Boro Rice Under Zero Till Non-Puddled Condition

Fundamental and Applied Agriculture
Tank-mixing two or more chemical groups of either pre- or post-emergence herbicide may be very beneficial for the efficient control of weeds in a heterogeneous population.

Economic Analysis of Infrastructure Investment and Break‐Even Carbon Prices for Low‐Water, Low‐Emission Farming Techniques in Vietnam

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excessive water use in rice production is a major source of methane emissions, the dominant greenhouse gas from Vietnam's agricultural sector. Improving water‐use efficiency can enhance water security and reduce emissions, but achieving these gains requires substantial changes in farming practices and significant investment in supporting ...

Evaluation of chemical weed control strategies in biomass sorghum

Journal of Plant Protection Research, 2018
Two field experimental trials were carried out in central Italy, in 2005 and 2006, on biomass sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] in order to assess weed control efficacy and selectivity to the crop of some pre- and post-emergence herbicides applied ...
