The Relevance of Apology to Reparations for Historical Injustice

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explains the centrality of apology to an adequate account of reparations. I look in depth at what goes on in apology. As I have previously argued, apology is an expressive action through which we seek to mark adequately the significance of our own wrongdoing. I claim that apology so understood is not merely ornamental.

Long‐Term Straw Returning Combined With Mineral Fertilization Enhances Soil Quality but Elevates P Loss Risks in a Subtropical Rice–Wheat Rotation System, Central China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Long‐term straw returning is widely promoted to improve soil quality in intensive cropping systems, yet its combined effects with mineral fertilization on soil quality and phosphorus (P) loss risks remain unclear. Using a 16‐year field experiment in a rice–wheat rotation system, we evaluated the impacts of straw returning (S), NPK ...

Land Transfer Contract and Farmers’ Straw-Returning Behavior: Evidence from Rural China

Land
Straw return is a crucial method for utilizing agricultural waste as a resource. Against the backdrop of increasing straw production in China, most scholars focus only on the behavioral decision of whether farmers choose to transfer land.

Unraveling the Spatiotemporal Dynamics and Nonlinear Drivers of Green Transition of Farmland Use in Major Grain‐Producing Areas: A Case Study of Jiangsu Province, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Promoting the green transition of farmland use (GTFU) in major grain‐producing areas is essential for ensuring food security and advancing sustainable agricultural development. However, existing studies on GTFU have predominantly relied on static cross‐sectional analyses, with insufficient attention paid to its nonlinear driving mechanisms. To

Short-Term Straw Return Combined with Nitrogen Fertilizer Alters the Soil Nitrogen Supply in Rice–Rapeseed Planting Systems

Agronomy
This study aimed to assess the influences of short-term straw return combined with nitrogen (N) fertilizer on crop yield, soil properties, the bacterial community, and soil nitrogen cycling gene abundance in a rice–rapeseed planting system.

Image_2_Characterizing corn-straw-degrading actinomycetes and evaluating application efficiency in straw-returning experiments.TIF

, 2022
Corn straw is an abundant lignocellulose resource and by-product of agricultural production. With the continuous increase in agricultural development, the output of corn straw is also increasing significantly. However, the inappropriate disposal of straw

Long‐Term Combined Application of Biochar and Chemical Fertilizers Enhances Potassium Supply Capacity in Continuous Cropping Soils

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustaining soil potassium (K) supply in intensive continuous cropping systems is increasingly challenging because long‐term crop removal often exceeds the natural replenishment capacity of soil K‐bearing minerals, leading to progressive depletion of plant‐available K pools.

Heterogeneity and Controlling Mechanisms of Soil Organic Carbon Stocks Across Erosion Zones in China Under Future Climate Scenarios

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil organic carbon (SOC), as a key indicator of global carbon cycling and climate change response, plays a critical role in regional ecological security and agricultural sustainability. This study employs three machine learning models including the LightGBM, XGBoost, and random forest to simulate the spatial distribution of topsoil SOC stocks
