Historical Irrigation Expansion Has Substantially Mitigated Spring Heat Stress in North China Plain
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract Since the 1950s, global irrigated areas have expanded dramatically, with complex effects on regional climate worldwide. Although the North China Plain (NCP) is among the most intensively irrigated regions in the world, the effects of irrigation expansion on heat stress over the past multidecadal timescale remain poorly understood.

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 346-358, May 2026.ABSTRACTPerennial bioenergy crops, such as miscanthus and switchgrass, and crop residues have the potential to scale up sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production and mitigate carbon emissions. However, high establishment costs, delayed returns, and risk–return profiles that diverge from those of conventional crops can hinder incentives to adopt ...

Climate variability and population vulnerability in the Sahel : Farmers' evolution of mitigation strategies and policies [PDF]
, 2008 The Sahelian rural population is considered to be one of the most vulnerable on earth and this vulnerability is considered to be caused mainly by the variability of the climate that prevails in this region.

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Intercropping cereals with non‐food intercrops (NFICs) provides a means to enhance cereal productivity while providing additional benefits such as improved soil health or forage production. We conducted a meta‐analysis to investigate the effect of NFICs on cereal yields, cereal nitrogen uptake, and striga (Striga spp.) infestation, using 874 ...

Cassava production systems optimized for double output: Seed‐cuttings and root yields
Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a strategic crop for food security but continues to face major challenges related to low root yields and the lack of optimized systems for producing high‐quality seed‐cuttings. This study evaluated the effects of different planting densities, varieties, and agrochemical‐based seed‐cutting treatments ...

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Stockpiled bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.) can potentially provide nutritious forage and extend the grazing season in the upper southeastern US Coastal Plain. This multi‐location 1‐year study evaluated the effects of four N fertilizer rates (from 0 to 135 kg ha−1) and four harvest dates (from October to January) on leaf‐to‐stem ...

Metabolic Reprogramming Analysis of Wheat Response to Low Temperature Stress Under Nitrogen Supply
Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Low temperature stress triggers a defense network that maintains growth at the expense of inhibiting photosynthesis and chlorophyll synthesis. Temperature recovery effectively repairs low temperature‐induced damage and enhances stress resistance, while nitrogen supply can further augment these protective processes to strengthen cold tolerance ...
