A longitudinal study of the effects of providing straw at different stages of life on tail-biting and other behaviour in commercially housed pigs [PDF]
, 2011 Tail-biting (TB) is a welfare concern. Recent studies indicate that early provision of straw may help prevent TB, however, many of these studies were carried out on small groups of pigs and may have limited applicability to commercial farms.

Effects of application of biochar and straw on sustainable phosphorus management [PDF]
, 2021 Abstract. Excessive use of phosphorus (P) in farmland soil and improper disposal of crop residues such as straws accelerate the consumption of P resources and cause a high level of air and water pollution, which are the main limiting factors for sustainable agricultural development.

A solid state fungal fermentation-based strategy for the hydrolysis of wheat straw [PDF]
, 2013 This paper reports a solid-state fungal fermentation-based pre-treatment strategy to convert wheat straw into a fermentable hydrolysate. Aspergillus niger was firstly cultured on wheat straw for production of cellulolytic enzymes and then the wheat straw
