Assessing the Efficacy of Steinernema carpocapsae for Biological Control of Megaselia halterata on Mushroom Farms

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Steinernema carpocapsae applications averaged 40%–60% mortality of mushroom phorid larvae in laboratory experiments. Survival experiments showed that nematode populations drop 50% approximately 5 days post application in mushroom compost. ABSTRACT Mushroom phorid flies (Megaselia halterata; MPF) are a major pest of commercial mushroom production, where

Impacts of Bacillus velezensis inoculation on exogenous organic carbon mineralization and bacterial community composition in fumigated continuous-cropping obstacle soils

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture
Chemical fumigants such as dazomet (DZ) and dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) effectively suppress soil-borne pathogens but there is uncertainty regarding the restoration of soil ecological functions in continuous cropping obstacles after fumigation, such as ...

Embedded Pesticide Use: Exploring the Pesticide‐Land Nexus

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the turn of the century, global land grabs, farmland financialization and land‐based food sovereignty movements have returned the land question to the heart of agrarian studies. Meanwhile, abiding interest in pesticides has been reanimated in the face of changes in production, regulation and knowledge of toxicity.

The effects of biocidal treatments on metabolism in soil .2. Gamma-irradiation, autoclaving, air-drying and fumigation

open access: yes, 1976
Respiration and mineralisation of N were measured in a set of contrasting soils that had either been autoclaved, air-dried, fumigated (with chloroform or methyl bromide) or exposed to gamma radiation. The soils used were a manured and an unmanured arable

Pesticide Supply Chains From China to Australia: Examining Paraquat Amid the Global Pesticide Complex

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following recent calls to deepen understanding of the Global Pesticide Complex, this article delves into the China‐to‐Australia supply chain of a single herbicide—paraquat. First released in the United Kingdom in the 1960s, acutely toxic paraquat is now primarily produced in China.

The Global Pesticide Complex: Infrastructure, Fragility and Frontiers of Agrarian Change

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although most pesticides have long been on the market, the political economy surrounding their production, regulation and use has undergone considerable change, spurring renewed interest in the social sciences. The global pesticide complex (GPC) is an analytical device to understand the multidimensional nature of these changes. In this special
