The functional role of ants in no‐till cropping systems

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Ants provide valuable ecosystem services in tropical agriculture, but their roles in temperate row crops remain poorly understood. Conservation practices such as no‐till farming and cover cropping support ant communities that contribute to pest suppression, weed seed removal, and soil quality, which can increase crop productivity.

Reindustrialization meets rural reality: The limits of foreign direct investment‐led development

Contemporary Economic Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract As industrial policy drives new waves of foreign direct investment (FDI) into the U.S., rural areas are becoming key destinations. Using synthetic control, difference‐in‐differences, and propensity score matching, I examine whether rural FDI translates job growth into higher incomes.

Compartment‐Specific Functional and Taxonomic Responses of Plant Growth‐Promoting Microbiomes Following Oxytetracycline Trunk Injection in Citrus

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Huanglongbing (HLB), caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus, is the most destructive disease affecting citrus production worldwide. Trunk injection of oxytetracycline (OTC) is increasingly used to suppress the pathogen and improve tree performance, yet its ecological consequences for plant‐associated microbiomes remain poorly understood ...

Tropicalization of the Temperate Zone: Spatiotemporal Variability of Winter Warming and Declining Freeze Days Across the United States

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 10, August 2026.
Unique characteristics of winter daily minimum (Tmin) and maximum (Tmax) temperatures and freeze days across the conterminous United States from 1952 to 2024 are examined. Results show spatial heterogeneity in Tmin/Tmax warming rates across the tropical‐temperate transition zone in the southeastern United States, and that the highest temperature on the
