Machine learning‐based prediction of cereal rye cover crop biomass across diverse agroecosystems

open access: yesAgricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Accurate operational predictions of cereal rye (Secale cereale L.) biomass are critical for quantifying the agroecosystem services provided by cover crops and for guiding growers’ management decisions for subsequent cash crops. In this study, we developed machine learning‐based biomass prediction models using two advanced gradient‐boosted tree

Maximizing Forage Yields in Corn Silage Systems with Winter Grains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Producing sufficient high quality forage on farms is becoming difficult given current economic and environmental pressures. Farmers are looking for strategies to improve yield and quality of their own forage to reduce the financial burden of purchasing ...

Evidence of slowing yield growth – the example of Swiss cereal yields [PDF]

open access: yes
We analyze trends in yield growth and yield variability of barley, maize, oats, rye triticale and wheat in Switzerland from 1961 to 2006. In contrast to linear trends in cereal yield growth that are usually assumed for Europe, cereal yields have leveled ...

‘You Had to Obey Your Husband; He Worked, You Raised the Children. Today, Things Have Changed’: A Mixed Methods Study on Gender Equality in Rural Croatia

open access: yesSociologia Ruralis, Volume 66, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The issue of gender (in)equality occupies an important place in sociological research, but there is still a lack of empirical studies that focus on rural areas. Based on the research approach of qualitatively guided sequential mixed‐methods research design (QUAL → quan), this study analysed 53 semi‐structured in‐depth interviews conducted with

Importance of interaction between the matrix effect and microbial metabolism in the bioavailability of lignans

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2180-2189, 15 March 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plant‐lignans are polyphenols with low bioavailability and bioactivity that are transformed by the intestinal microbiota into enterolignans. Our hypotheses are: (i) the way in which plant‐lignans are ingested in the diet affects, in a decisive way, the microbial metabolism of these compounds and (ii) an increase in lignan ...

Maize‐derived arabinoxylans modulate starch pasting, gel structure, and retrogradation

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2300-2310, 15 March 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Starch–fiber interactions play a paramount role in determining the functional quality and stability of starch‐based food products. This study systematically examined how maize arabinoxylans (MAX) influences the hydration, pasting, textural, and microstructural properties of maize starch gels.

Quantifying the land‐use change due to soybean‐based biodiesel in the United States

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 20-47, March 2026.
Abstract We quantify the impact of soybean oil‐based biodiesel production on US cropland, using a method that accounts for the intermediate effect of soybean crushing facilities. Based on U.S. Environmental Protection Agency data for biodiesel production and proprietary data for soybean crushing facilities over 2011–2020, we find that the elasticities ...

An In Vitro and In Vivo Assessment of the Genotoxic Potential of Maizinol (UP165), a Zea mays Leaf Extract

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 3, Page 950-960, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Benzoxazinoids are secondary metabolites produced in monocotyledons and some dicotyledons from the Acanthaceae, Ranunculaceae, Scrophulariaceae, Plantaginaceae, and Lamiaceae families. Benzoxazinoids are commonly consumed in bread and cereal products that have been ingested for decades, which supports the safe use of benzoxazinoids as food ...
