A novel way to establish fertilization recommendations based on agronomic efficiency and a sustainable yield index for rice crops. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2017
AbstractA simpler approach for establishing fertilizer recommendations for major crops is urgently required to improve the application efficiency of commercial fertilizers in China. To address this need, we developed a method based on field data drawn from the China Program of the International Plant Nutrition Institute (IPNI) rice experiments and ...

Neural Network for AI-Driven Prediction of Larval Protein Yield: Establishing the Protein Conversion Index (PCI) for Sustainable Insect Farming

Sustainability
The predictive capabilities of artificial intelligence for predicting protein yield from larval biomass present valuable advancements for sustainable insect farming, an increasingly relevant alternative protein source. This study develops a neural network model to predict protein conversion efficiency based on the nutritional composition of larval feed.

Determining relevant traits for selecting landrace accessions of Phaseolus lunatus L. for insect resistance [PDF]

PeerJ, 2021
Plant-insect interactions are a determining factor for sustainable crop production. Although plants can resist or tolerate herbivorous insects to varying degrees, even with the use of pesticides, insects can reduce plant net productivity by as much as 20%
