From Grave to Cradle: Kombucha Waste for Sustainable Electronics
This study introduces a sustainable method to purify kombucha bacterial cellulose (KBC) with sodium bicarbonate and hydrogen peroxide, avoiding harsh chemicals. KBC films are patterned with gold and function as pressure sensors for flatfoot gait detection. At the end‐of‐life, the KBC‐based device biodegrades in soil, leaving environmentally benign gold

Parasitic Plant–Host Interactions: Molecular Mechanisms and Agricultural Resistance Strategies
Parasitic plants devastate global agriculture through sophisticated molecular interactions with host crops. This review synthesizes current understanding of parasitic plant‐host interactions, from strigolactone‐mediated germination and haustorium formation to host defense mechanisms.

Biostimulant effects of Rugulopteryx okamurae aqueous extracts on radish growth
Abstract In recent years, the invasive algae Rugulopteryx okamurae has spread along the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts, causing ecological and economic damage. However, upwelling algae could provide a valuable source of carbon biomass for circular economy applications. Marine algae, particularly brown algae, have a long history of use in agriculture

ABSTRACT Soil acidity is among the most important abiotic stresses globally constraining agricultural land and crop productivity. Globally, about 30%–40% of total arable land is under the influence of acidic soil. In Ethiopia, approximately 43% of arable land and productive areas are constrained by acidic soil.

Effects of grain-producing cover crops on rice grain yield in Cabo Delgado, Mozambique
Besides providing benefits to the environment such as soil protection, release of nutrients, soil moisture maintenance, and weed control, cover crops can increase food production for grain production.
