Landless peasants, soilless cultivation: British agricultural experimentation and intervention in post‐independence Iraq (1932–1958)

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
‘Greening’ is often depicted as an inherently benevolent practice, turning arid stretches of land into arable and fertile plots. However, by considering a longer history of place and taking archival records into account, such transformations are rendered more complex and, often, more fraught.

The effects of flower supplementation on pollinators and pollination along an urbanisation gradient

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Enhancing urban greenspaces for pollinator communities by planting flower patches is increasingly common, but their efficacy for different groups of insects (bees, hoverflies and moths) is unclear. Our city‐scale experiment demonstrated that the effect of flower patches on pollinators is complex, and direct benefits to specific insects are difficult to

Protected and productive: How greenhouses should deliver UK food security

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The United Kingdom produces less than 20% of its fruit and ~50% of its vegetables, leaving it highly import dependent and vulnerable to supply chain disruptions. Our study maps 2085 ha of existing greenhouses, over 70% more than 40 years old, and identifies where modern infrastructure could expand production.

Integrating tunable LED‐induced plant responses with novel solar cell technologies for energy‐efficient agrivoltaic systems

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The increasing demand for sustainable food production requires innovative solutions that balance productivity, resource efficiency, and environmental impact. Vertical Farming Systems (VFSs) offer a promising approach; however, their high energy consumption remains challenging.

Novel applications of the tomato microbiome: Roles and considerations for agriculture, human health, and society

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Plants, like humans, have a microbiome that helps them grow, defend themselves against pathogens, acquire nutrients, and protect themselves against environmental stresses. The microbiome of tomatoes, a staple crop grown worldwide, could be utilized not only to reduce fertilizer and pesticide applications, but also to clean up harmful pollutants ...
