The Biology, Ecology, Distribution and Management of Two Globally Invasive Weeds: Calotropis procera (Calotrope) and Calotropis gigantea (Giant Calotrope)

Weed Research, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Calotropis procera and C. gigantea are emerging as globally invasive plants that can significantly alter ecosystems in areas where they have escaped from attended cultivation. Without effective management, these species can form dense monospecific stands, resulting in severe economic, environmental and social impacts.

Legacy Knowledge on Landscape Soil Carbon—Concentrated Organic Input to Selected Sites Comes With the Expense of Soil Health of Larger Areas

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 189, Issue 2, Page 181-183, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Xu et al. show that high organic input and N‐balancing fertilization improve soil health at the soil plot scale; however, the effects of allocating C and N on soil health at the landscape or region scale are not considered. Historical soil management systems show that such a depletive redistribution leads to local agricultural improvements ...

Intensifying a no‐till sorghum–soybean–wheat rotation with double‐crop soybean and cover crops

Agronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract A central strategy of sustainable intensification is increasing cropping intensity. The fourth cycle of a long‐term, no‐till sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench]–soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]–wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) rotation established in 2007 near Manhattan, KS, was intensified with both double‐crop soybean (DCB) and cover crops ...
