Short‐Term Agricultural Drought Prediction Using Explainable Data‐Driven Models and Quantified Uncertainty

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that explainable deep learning models can skilfully predict short‐term agricultural drought using standardized drought indices, capturing hydroclimatic memory and seasonal persistence. The integration of uncertainty quantification and SHAP‐based interpretability reveals the dominant role of antecedent moisture and climate ...

Food Security Versus Environmental Health: The Nitrogen Dilemma

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth and, consequently, crop production. However, the cycling of nitrogen in the environment can have negative effects. Here, we review the historical development of scientific and public awareness of these effects and the influence this has had on political action to control them.

Eco-physiological response of grain amaranth to regulated deficit and conventional deficit irrigation applied with surface and subsurface drip irrigation systems

open access: yesThe Journal of Agricultural Science
AbstractUnderstanding the water use of drought-tolerant crops of the drought-prone Mediterranean regions is important for sustainable agriculture. The aim of this study was to evaluate the yield and yield responses of amaranth (Amaranthus hybridus L.) to different irrigation strategies conducted in 2019 and 2020 under Mediterranean climatic conditions ...

Effects of Microplastic Pollution on Growth, Photosynthesis, and Nutritional Composition of Maize (Zea mays L.)

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Microplastic (MP) contamination in agroecosystems is an increasingly recognized environmental concern, whereas its polymer‐specific impacts on plant growth and nutritional composition remain poorly understood. Aim Our study aimed to evaluate how polymer type and concentration of MPs directly affect plant growth, physiological traits,

Regulated deficit irrigation based on plant water status and Agrivoltaic systems as possible improvements on water resources management in tomato

open access: yes
Limited water resources around the world affect tomato production, and regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) based on plant water status reduces water needs with an accurate control during periods of drought.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Assessing plant water status: Part 1 – Classical methods

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract As a result of the changing climate, water scarcity poses a significant threat to crop and pasture production. Although soil water content can indicate drought, its measurements often provide limited spatial resolution and are weakly correlated with plant water status, producing misleading drought assessments.

Regulated Deficit Irrigation and Density of Erythroneura spp. (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) on Grape

open access: yesJournal of Economic Entomology, 2008
This study looked at regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) on leafhoppers in the genus Erythroneura (Erythroneura elegantula Osborn, or western grape leafhopper, and Erythroneura variabilis Beamer) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), which are serious pests of cultivated grape (Vitis vinifera L.) in California. RDI is an irrigation strategy that reduces irrigation
