Short‐Term Response of Soil Health Indicators to Cover Crop Management in Small‐Scale Vegetable Cropping Systems

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT A 2‐year field experiment (2022–2023) was conducted on a clay loam soil in Quebec, Canada, to evaluate the short‐term effect of spring‐seeded cover crop termination methods on soil health indicators. A mixture of field peas (Pisum sativum L.) with oats (Avena sativa L.) in 2022 and with faba beans (Vicia faba L.) in 2023 was seeded in early ...

Determination of the Nutritional Value of Tomato Shoot Silage in Ruminant Nutrition by In Vitro Techniques [PDF]

open access: yesپژوهشهای تولیدات دامی
Extended Abstract Background: Developing countries, especially with dry weather conditions, are facing the problem of lack of animal feed. Thus, agricultural by-products, which are often processed for feeding in ruminants, can be used as an alternative ...

Traversing the effects of ploidy changes in different Eragrostis curvula genotypes through high‐throughput RNA sequencing

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Polyploidization has played a key role in plant genome evolution. Eragrostis curvula (Schrad.) Ness, a perennial forage grass species of the Poaceae family, is an excellent model for investigating genome duplication due to its natural variation in ploidy levels.

Corn silage inoculated with microbial additives

open access: yes, 2014
This study aimed to determine the quality of corn silage inoculated with microbial additives. Therefore, three experiments were carried out. In the first year, in experimental silos, four inoculants that comprised the following treatments were tested: forage inoculated with Lactobacillus buchneri (LB), Propionibacterium acidipropionici (PA), Bacillus ...

Plant growth regulator and spring nitrogen effects on grass seed crops in western Canada

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are used in herbage seed crops to mitigate lodging risk and protect seed yield, though their effects on aging perennial grass stands remain understudied. This study evaluated the effect of PGRs on the agronomic characteristics of herbage seed crops of creeping red fescue (Festuca rubra L.), meadow brome (Bromus ...

Legume intercropping in organic timothy seed crops

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Timothy (Phleum pratense L.) is a perennial grass widely grown for livestock feed in temperate regions of the world. It is one of the primary forage grasses grown for seed in Scandinavia due to good cold tolerance and high‐quality feed characteristics.

From Assessment to Optimization: A Comprehensive Review of the Mutton Quality Evaluation Index, Factors, and Improvement Strategies

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 3, May 2026.
This graphical abstract summarizes the comprehensive framework of mutton quality, including evaluation indices, influencing factors, and improvement strategies. Meat quality is systematically assessed through multiple dimensions, including flavor, color, pH, tenderness, water‐holding capacity, intramuscular fat, and nutritional composition.

Topography, management, and extreme precipitation influence greenhouse gas emissions in a cool, humid corn silage system

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Agricultural soils are sources of nitrous oxide (N2O) and, under prolonged saturation, methane (CH4)—two potent greenhouse gases (GHGs). Soil management, field topography, and climate all influence GHG emissions, yet their interactions are not well understood.

Targeting phosphorus loss with carbon farming practices? Results from an on‐farm study

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Agricultural soils lose P to waterbodies and C to the atmosphere. Reversing the C trend requires change in management (carbon farming), but what is the effect of carbon farming practices on P transport from soils to waterbodies? This was empirically studied by analyzing the P loss risks from 20 farms participating in a 5‐year on‐farm carbon ...
