Fate of fatty acids during ensiling: relationship with milk fat composition of dairy cows [PDF]
, 2011 Transition of dairy cows from grazing to silage based rations significantly increases the saturated: unsaturated fatty acids (FA) ratio and decreases the content of beneficial C18:1 cis-9, C18:1 trans-11, C18:2 cis-9,trans-11 and C18:3n-3 in milk fat ...

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Triticale (x Triticosecale Wittmack) is an interspecific hybrid of wheat and rye. It is a promising grain and forage crop that thrives in poorer soils and low‐input farming systems. It can serve as a viable alternative to traditional small grains such as wheat and barley, bringing diversity to crop rotations and enhancing biodiversity in ...

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a vital cereal crop in dry regions worldwide. However, in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), grain yields from currently grown varieties remain low (< 1 ton/ha) and exhibit variable nutrient composition. Therefore, the objective of this study was to undertake a genetic analysis of selected East African‐adapted ...

Prediction of cereal rye biomass accumulation in Wisconsin based on weather and agronomic management
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.Abstract Cereal rye (Secale cereale L.) biomass accumulation is strongly influenced by weather conditions and management practices, making accurate biomass estimates critical for guiding farmers’ management decisions. In this study, we evaluated how weather (e.g., temperature and rainfall) and management practices (including planting and termination ...

Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 4, October 2026.ABSTRACT Purple elephant grass (Cenchrus purpureus (Schumach.) Morrone) is a valuable forage crop with potential bioactive properties that influence animal health. This study presents a comprehensive metabolomic characterization of two purple elephant grass genotypes (T441 and T515) using high‐resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), molecular networking ...

Ban Glyphosate—Does It Affect the Swedish Farmers' Willingness to Grow Cover Crops?
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1035-1047, September 2026.ABSTRACT The cultivation of cover crops is one of the new Eco‐scheme practices introduced in Sweden. This study examines how the design of policy attributes of these schemes influences farmers' willingness to grow cover crops on arable land, with particular focus on the potential impact of a glyphosate ban.

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1119-1134, September 2026.ABSTRACT Increased frequency of extreme weather events, particularly droughts, threatens grassland farming by destabilizing yields and farms' economic viability. We examine, theoretically and through numerical simulations, how sown plant diversity (natural insurance) influences the attractiveness of indemnity and drought index insurance (formal ...
