Effect of sowing date and genotype on pearl millet yield across semi‐arid regions of Sub‐Saharan Africa

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract In climate change–vulnerable, food‐insecure semi‐arid regions of Sub‐Saharan Africa, limited studies compared the performance of pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.)] landraces and improved genotypes under staggered sowing to establish their interactions, resulting in a generalization that landraces are lower yielding than their improved ...

Wallace's pARCs—Making Climate, Climate Change and Biodiversity Data Available to Protected Area Managers and Conservation Planners With an Example From Biebrza National Park, Poland

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 1, June 2026.
A spatial representation of the potential ‘adaptation effort’ that might be needed to maintain at least 75% of the species modelled in Biebrza National Park, Poland (white outline), at 1.5°C. The darker the green shading, the less adaptation would be needed.

Selection of suitable additives for seed pelletizing to enhance germination and growth of Onobrychis viciifolia in restoration of semi‐arid degraded rangelands

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Despite direct seeding, seed pelletizing with useful materials is one of the effective methods to improve plant growth. This experiment assessed the impacts of different additives used in seed pelletizing on germination and growth of Onobrychis viciifolia at a degraded semi‐arid rangeland.

Essential nutrients’ availability in pecan orchards affected by salinity in southern New Mexico and western Texas

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Pecans [Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch] are widely cultivated in the semi‐arid and arid regions of New Mexico and Texas, where irrigation relies heavily on the Rio Grande River and brackish groundwater. This study evaluated the impact of these water sources on soil physicochemical properties, nutrient availability, and pecan tree ...

Photosynthetic Performance of Zea mays integrated with Neolamarckia cadamba under climate change condition

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Anthropogenic activities have increased CO2 emissions, elevating global temperatures and disrupting rainfall patterns, thus affecting crop productivity. This study examines the photosynthetic performance of Zea mays under elevated temperatures (25°C and 30°C) and CO2 levels (400 and 700 ppm) in two cropping systems: monoculture and an ...

Gene Editing and Transformation Strategies for Engineering Drought‐Tolerant Legumes

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Legumes play a vital role in agriculture, nutrition, and the economy, but their production faces significant threats. Among these, drought and its unpredictability will be the most damaging constraint in the coming decades. Enhancing drought tolerance is essential for resilient and sustainable legume cultivation, and genetic engineering ...

Physiological and Morphological Responses of Grain Sorghum to Varying Temperature, Irrigation and Carbon Dioxide Levels

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The increasing frequency and unpredictability of adverse growing conditions pose significant challenges to crop productivity and ecosystem sustainability. Early‐stage vigour strongly influences crop establishment and yield potential, making it essential to understand sorghum responses for developing resilient cultivars.

Assessing the Impact of Agrivoltaic Systems on Pasture Plant and Soil Microarthropod Communities

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Agrivoltaic systems (AVS) integrate renewable energy production with agricultural use, creating novel microclimatic gradients that can affect ecosystem structure and function. However, the ecological consequences of these gradients on vegetation composition and soil biological quality remain poorly understood, particularly in pasture‐based AVS
