Resilience through diversity: The potential of modelling species and variety interactions to enhance resilience of production systems

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Agricultural production systems in the global North combine monocultures of specialised varieties and breeds with external interventions and inputs. Increasing the diversity of varieties, breeds and species may increase the system's resilience to external pressures through beneficial interactions.

Integrating indigenous crops in agroforestry systems: Lesser yam and teak mixed systems are more profitable than monocultures in Indonesia

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Major staple crops are often introduced and cultivated in monocultures. Yams are staple crops native to the majority of low‐ and middle‐income countries and can provide an alternative to introduced staple crops. We showed that lesser yams cultivated together with teak trees (planted at the border of the farm) are more profitable than lesser yam ...

Quantifying aboveground herbaceous biomass in grassy ecosystems: a comparison of field and high‐resolution UAV‐LiDAR approaches

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The abundance of herbaceous vegetation in grassy ecosystems—which cover >25% of the world's land surface—is highly variable and impacts key ecological processes including carbon sequestration and support for grazing wildlife and livestock. Here, we present a method for using high‐resolution, UAV‐borne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) to estimate ...
