Can soil amendments help stabilize rainfed soybean production variations?

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract The application of biochar and gypsum to soil promotes soil health for crop production. The benefits can vary depending on the soil and climate. We evaluated seed yield, quality, and soil quality benefits of applying biochar and gypsum to silt loam soil in a humid subtropical climate at Stoneville, MS (33° 42′ N, 90° 55′ W).

Sugarcane straw and the populations of pests and nematodes

Scientia Agricola, 2013
The green cane harvesting represented a significant change in sugarcane ecosystem due to the presence of straw left on the soil and to the absence of fire. These two factors may affect the populations of pests and their natural enemies.

Impulsive Biological Pest Control Strategies of the Sugarcane Borer [PDF]

Mathematical Problems in Engineering, 2012
We propose an impulsive biological pest control of the sugarcane borer (Diatraea saccharalis) by its egg parasitoid Trichogramma galloi based on a mathematical model in which the sugarcane borer is represented by the egg and larval stages, and the parasitoid is considered in terms of the parasitized eggs.

On the Limits of Alpine Plants: A Systematic Review of the Factors Behind Species' Elevational Range Limits

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This systematic review of 107 studies on the factors behind the elevational range limits of alpine vascular plants shows a persistent emphasis on upper limits and abiotic factors, especially temperature, while work at lower limits is more evenly distributed across water availability, plant–plant interactions, and selection/local adaptation.

Electrophysiological and oviposition responses of Asian corn borer, Ostrinia furnacalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), to compounds rinsed from the surfaces of sugarcane and maize leaves

European Journal of Entomology, 2015
The Asian corn borer, Ostrinia furnacalis, is one of the most important pests of maize (Zea mays) in China. However, the mechanism by which intercropping sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) and maize controls this pest via compounds rinsed from leaf ...

Combined Effect of Cetane Improver, Aluminum Oxide Nanoparticles, and Waste Cooking Oil Biodiesel Blend on a Dual Fuel Combustion Engine Run With Biogas Originated From Food Waste

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 1372-1386, March 2026.
Sugarcane juice is clarified and fermented with yeast to produce ethanol and CO₂. The broth is refined through distillation and molecular sieves, yielding fuel‐grade ethanol stored for transport. Bagasse, vinasse, and residues are recycled as valuable by‐products, enabling a sustainable bioethanol production pathway ABSTRACT This study investigates the
