This study demonstrates that a novel crop-specific drought index, derived from a modeling chain combining crop phenology and water balance, effectively correlates with and predicts crop insurance claims for maize in France, offering a valuable tool for assessing the impact of evolving drought risks on agricultural insurance losses.
This study demonstrates that root necrosis, rather than foliar symptoms or root bitterness, is the primary determinant of yield loss in cassava brown streak disease, revealing that reliance on leaf screening is deceptive and highlighting the necessity of mandatory root evaluation to identify elite, disease-resistant, and consumer-preferred cassava varieties.
A field experiment conducted in Rajasthan, India, demonstrated that applying 75% of the recommended fertilizer dose combined with 25% nitrogen through vermicompost and a 0.5% foliar spray of iron and zinc at 30 and 45 days after sowing significantly enhanced the growth, yield, quality, and economic profitability of pearl millet compared to other treatments.
This study demonstrates that variations in thermal conditions and depth-specific soil nutrients across the Jiayuguan, Zhangye, and Wuwei regions of the Hexi Corridor significantly drive distinct differences in the sugar, phenolic, and aroma profiles of 'Italian Riesling' grapes, providing a scientific basis for precision viticulture in arid zones.
This study demonstrates that combining limited field-measured potato leaf data with PROSPECT-5B simulated samples to train a TabPFN model using four optimized spectral indices significantly improves the accuracy and efficiency of chlorophyll content estimation under small-sample conditions.
This review synthesizes 65 studies from 1977 to 2026 to demonstrate that utilizing diverse agro-industrial wastes as substrates for citric acid production, when optimized through pretreatment, nutrient balancing, and inducer supplementation, offers a viable strategy for reducing operational costs and mitigating environmental impacts.
A field experiment in northwestern Ethiopia demonstrated that the integrated application of 150 kg ha⁻¹ blended NPSB fertilizer and 10 t ha⁻¹ farmyard manure significantly maximizes both marketable tomato yield and economic return, making it the recommended treatment for smallholder farmers in the region.
This study demonstrates that reducing dietary copper sulphate to 75 mg/kg in grower-finisher pigs maintains growth performance and carcass quality while maximizing economic returns and supporting more sustainable production by lowering feed costs and copper excretion.
This study demonstrates that Sentinel-2 imagery reliably correlates with field spectrometer measurements for vegetation spectral analysis, confirming its effectiveness for precision agriculture and vegetation monitoring when integrated with ground-based data for calibration and validation.
This study of 287 livestock feed processors in South-West Nigeria reveals that while routine processing skills are adequate, significant technical competence gaps exist in scientific and analytical areas such as feed formulation and analysis, highlighting an urgent need for targeted, competency-based training to improve feed quality and system resilience.
