Disentangling Inequality and Exploitation in the Rice Value Chain in Northern Uganda

Journal of Agrarian Change, Volume 26, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Although inequality between actors in agricultural value chains has been extensively studied, informal and semiformal arrangements in domestic value chains involving small‐scale actors have been explored less than formal arrangements involving large firms.

Field Trials and Baking Studies of Ultra‐Low Asparagine, Genome Edited (CRISPR/Cas9) and Mutant (TILLING) Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 4704-4715, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Field trials were conducted of wheat (Triticum aestivum) cv. Cadenza in which asparagine synthetase gene, TaASN2, had been knocked out, either on its own or together with a partial knockout of the related gene, TaASN1, using CRISPR/Cas9. Chemical mutagenesis (TILLING) TaASN2 nulls in the Claire background were also included.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 11, 3 June 2026.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Optimizing Carbon Sources in Biofloc Technology for Sustainable Aquaculture: A Meta‐Analytical Review

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture intensification is increasingly constrained by high water demand, nutrient‐rich effluents and disease risk, increasing interest in biofloc technology (BFT) as a waste‐recycling, low‐exchange production model. However, BFT performance depends strongly on the carbon source used to adjust the carbon‐to‐nitrogen (C/N) ratio and ...

Corn response to broiler litter total cleanout frequency

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Broiler (Gallus gallus domesticus) litter is a valuable nutrient source for corn (Zea mays L.) production in the southeastern United States; however, differences in total cleanout frequency of broiler houses may influence the agronomic value of broiler litter. A 3‐year field study was established on Decatur silt loam and Malbis sandy clay loam

Tailoring of Waste‐Derived CO2 Adsorbents From the Perspective of Apparent and Intrinsic Property Regulation

cScience, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The conversion of waste materials into solid CO2 adsorbents is a promising strategy for carbon capture and waste management. In this review, we discuss recent advances in the preparation and modification of waste‐derived CO2 adsorbents, including carbon‐based materials, zeolites, metal–organic frameworks, layered double hydroxides, CaO, and ...

Nanoshell Fabrication Techniques for Probiotic Encapsulation: A Comprehensive Review

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Probiotics, beneficial microorganisms, confer numerous health benefits when administered. However, their efficacy is hindered by harsh gut conditions, including acidity, bile acids, and enzymatic degradation. To overcome these challenges, encapsulation and nanoshell technology have emerged as a pivotal strategy to enhance probiotic stability ...

Effect of rice hull amendment in green roof substrates

Journal of Environmental Engineering and Landscape Management
The use of waste and locally available materials could improve the sustainability of green roofs. Therefore, a study was conducted to evaluate the potential of a rice hulls in the organic and inorganic portion of green roof substrates. Three substrate mixtures were prepared at the site by mixing locally available materials.
