Mangrove vegetation supports milkfish production in silvofishery pond

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2019
The present study reports mangrove vegetation to support the milkfish (Chanos chanos) production in the silvofishery pond. This study aimed to determine the relationship between the densities of mangrove vegetation on C.

Identifying knowledge barriers to agroforestry adoption and co‐designing solutions to them

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Compared to monocultures, agroforestry can promote biodiversity, ecosystem functioning and climate resilience, whilst maintaining or enhancing production and profits. Despite this, uptake in temperate regions remains low. Knowledge gaps amongst land managers are a primary barrier to uptake, but little is known about which aspects of ...

The Determination of Sapling Characteristics and Affinity Situations of Some Local Cultivars on Some American Rootstocks in Grafted Vine Sapling Production

International Journal of Agriculture Environment and Food Sciences
The Gelin, Pembe Salman, and Osmanca cultivars of Vitis vinifera L. have traditionally been grown on their own roots using Goblet training systems in the Aydın province. These cultivars are sensitive to Daktulosphaira vitifoliae, making it necessary to graft nursery plants of these cultivars in future plantings.

Biomass Accumulation and Net Primary Production during the Early Stage of Secondary Succession after a Severe Forest Disturbance in Northern Japan

, 2016
Quantitative evaluations of biomass accumulation after disturbances in forests are crucially important for elucidating and predicting forest carbon dynamics in order to understand the carbon sink/source activities.

Linking perceptions of weeds with approaches to weed management

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract A multitude of factors can shape people's perceptions, leading to a variety of views on nature's services and values. The IPBES Values Framework highlights the ways that people and nature interact (both positively and negatively) through consideration of nature's contributions to people. For plants, differences in perceived values by different

Effect on Nutrient Contents of Grafted Vine Sapling of Mychorrizal Preparations

Turkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2020
This study was carried out for two years in order to determine the effects of mychorrizal preperate (MP) applications on nutrient contents of saplings in grafted and potted grapevine sapling production.

Production performance of lettuce (Lactuca sativa): aquaponics versus traditional soil

Asian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2018
Feeding the ever increasing population in a safe way has become a rising challenge because of reckless use of natural resources. Substitution of traditional farming system with cost effective integration of different production units has emerged as ...

Simulated elephant foraging alters tree root exudation rates: Species‐specific responses and implications for belowground carbon dynamics in tropical forests

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Asian elephants play crucial roles in ecosystem functioning, and their interactions with plants influence above‐ and belowground carbon cycling. We tested whether their mechanically destructive foraging triggers short‐term, stress‐induced shifts in tree root exudation, an underappreciated pathway linking herbivory to belowground carbon processes.

Open‐land‐derived agroforestry and effects of abandonment of management of the main crop on ecosystem services and woody plant diversity

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Tropical forests are rapidly declining. One promising strategy to reverse the loss of tropical forest is the establishment of agroforestry on open land. We combined interviews with biodiversity surveys to learn general lessons from success and nonsuccess stories of the establishment of open‐land‐derived coffee agroforests in one of the world's ...

Growth and quality of Fagus sylvatica saplings depend on seed source, site, and browsing intensity

Ecosphere, 2019
Local climate and ungulate browsing are two major factors that affect tree regeneration and genetic adaptation in Central European forests. Owing to climate change and increasing ungulate numbers, the abiotic and biotic environments of trees are changing
