Environmental Pesticide Exposure in the Etiology of Pediatric Brain Tumors and Leukemia: A Scoping Review of Epidemiological Studies

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 6, Page 1360-1384, 15 September 2026.
ABSTRACT Pediatric cancer is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in children. The etiologies of pediatric cancer are largely unknown, but environmental pesticide exposures are likely to contribute. Chronic low‐dose exposure to pesticide mixtures through drinking water is a growing concern in agricultural communities.

The Controlled Release of Insect Pheromones From Biobased Thermoplastic Compounds for Sustainable Pest Management

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study advances sustainable pest management by characterizing novel insect‐specific pheromone compounds with a linear release profile. Release rate constants are derived from accelerated high‐temperature tests, enabling broadly applicable comparisons of pheromone‐polymer compounds.

Drivers of Precision Agriculture Adoption in Italian Viticulture

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1258-1271, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines the main drivers influencing the adoption of two types of precision farming technologies in the viticultural sector: Decision Support Systems (DSSs) and Variable Rate Technologies (VRTs). We apply a partial proportional odds model and find that socio‐demographic characteristics are not significant determinants of adoption ...

Changing straw management practices in California rice fields: A recent and historical analysis of the Sacramento Valley

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Agricultural practices are constantly evolving due to changes in regulation, climate, and technology. Regulations in California resulted in phasing out rice (Oryza sativa L.) straw burning in the 1990s, leading to a range of alternative practices to manage the straw, which impact agronomic practices, air quality, ecosystem services, and ...
