Integrated and closed‐loop biorefinery strategies for efficient waste valorization and biofuel production

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 1656-1676, April 2026.
Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

The resistance of the perennial ryegrass cultivar Endura to ryegrass mosaic virus

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, 1980
SUMMARYThe perennial ryegrass cv. Endura is particularly resistant to infection with two ryegrass mosaic virus isolates, RMV‐Roth and RMV‐Sax. A few plants appeared immune to RMV‐Roth but were infected by RMV‐Sax. Two plants that developed only mild symptoms after infection with RMV‐Roth contained few virus particles, but passage through these ...

Incorporating Plantain Into a Perennial Ryegrass–White Clover Mixed Sward for an Environmentally Sustainable Dairy System: A Three‐Year Farm System Study

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Over three production years (2021–2024), this study investigated the effects of incorporating plantain into a perennial ryegrass–white clover (RGWC) mixed sward on dairy farm productivity and environmental footprint. Seventy‐two Friesian × Jersey cows were allocated to six farmlets across two replicated herbage treatments (n = 3): RGWC with no plantain

A study of patchiness in mid-season dairy pastures : consequences and control : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
There is interest among some dairy farmers in increasing herbage intake of cows during spring by increasing pasture cover but without compromising pasture quality into the summer.

Milk Fatty Acid Dynamics in Cows Grazing Standard and Multispecies Pastures Under Two Management Systems

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
This study evaluated the influence of three pasture‐management systems on milk fatty acid (FA) profiles in New Zealand dairy cows: standard–contemporary (STD–CON), diverse–contemporary (DIV–CON), and diverse–regenerative (DIV–REG). The STD–CON pastures consisted of ryegrass–clover, whereas diverse pastures included up to 16 species of grasses, legumes,

Balancing Production and Environmental Goals in Pasture‐Based Dairy Systems: A Longitudinal Case Study of Transition in a High Performing New Zealand Farm

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Production and environmental outputs of intensive pasture‐based dairy systems must be rebalanced to reduce overall environmental footprint. This analysis documents the tactical management changes that enabled Lincoln University Dairy Farm (LUDF) to transition from high nitrogen (N) inputs (345 kg N fertiliser/ha/year) to a lower N input strategy (167 ...

Forage Level and Methane Inhibitor Effects on In Vitro Fermentation Products Using Forage Rape or Ryegrass as Substrates

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Dietary approaches that decrease ruminal pH may be combined with anti‐methanogenic feed additives that prevent methane formation and consequently increase the dissolved hydrogen concentration. To evaluate the effect of pH and the effect of dissolved hydrogen concentration, two forages (forage rape and ryegrass) were incubated in vitro at two forage ...

The relative influence of above and below ground competition on the growth and survival of ryegrass seedlings transplanted into a hill country pasture : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Plant Science at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
In many pasture improvement programmes, for example oversowing in hill country, seedling survival is influenced by competition from the existing vegetation. Competition between pasture plants occurs when resources are limited and may be for factors above

Challenges facing the management of pesticide resistance in weeds, diseases and insect pests in European agriculture and the future of effective IPM implementation

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 2838-2843, April 2026.
Opinion on pesticide resistance and management in the European Union (EU) and United Kingdom (UK) is presented cognisant of changes in regulation that impact on mode of action availability and cropping system choice. Abstract In recent times, pesticide resistance has been managed reasonably effectively, either proactively or reactively, by monitoring ...

Drought tolerance of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) and the role of Epichloë endophyte : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Plant Science at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Perennial ryegrass is the most important grass species in New Zealand. Due to climate change, drought will become more severe and frequent in New Zealand, which makes it increasingly important to improve drought tolerance of perennial ryegrass. There are
