Monitoring farmland soil moisture status in semi-arid regions using multi-source remote sensing fusion data and machine learning algorithms

This study demonstrates that integrating optical vegetation indices and radar backscatter features within an XGBoost machine learning framework effectively monitors the spatiotemporal dynamics of soil moisture across various depths and growth stages in semi-arid spring maize fields, revealing the complementary roles of these data sources and the superior performance of the combined approach.

Comparative Analysis of Exponential Smoothing and ARIMA Models for Forecasting Major Agricultural Crops in Bangladesh

This study evaluates Simple Exponential Smoothing, Holt's Linear Method, and ARIMA models to forecast production trends for rice, maize, potato, and wheat in Bangladesh, finding that Holt's Linear Method is optimal for three crops while ARIMA(0,3,2) best predicts wheat, thereby offering critical insights for future agricultural planning and policy-making.

Multi-ratio co-inoculation of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Oenococcus oeni with Saccharomyces cerevisiae reveals an optimal blend for enhancing aroma complexity and sensory preference of Cabernet Gernischt wine

This study demonstrates that co-inoculating *Saccharomyces cerevisiae* with a 1:1 ratio of *Lactiplantibacillus plantarum* and *Oenococcus oeni* optimizes Cabernet Gernischt wine quality by accelerating fermentation, enhancing fruity and floral aromas, and achieving superior sensory preference compared to single-strain or other mixed-ratio treatments.

Effects of Different NaCl-Based Salinity Levels in Irrigation Water on Screen House Cucumber (Daewy F1)

This study demonstrates that the Daewy F1 cucumber variety can tolerate irrigation water salinity up to 1.50 dS/m without significant yield loss under screen house conditions in Abeokuta, Nigeria, but experiences severe growth suppression and economic losses at higher salinity levels, with plants dying completely at 5.00 dS/m.

Asymmetric Effects of Fishing Attributes on Angler Satisfaction in Chinese Fishing Gardens

This study analyzes online review data from Chinese fishing gardens using advanced machine learning and Kano modeling to reveal that angler satisfaction is asymmetrically driven by catch-related attributes—particularly fish size and quantity—which exhibit threshold effects and complex interactions with non-catch factors like water quality and cost.

Divergent Biostimulant Capacities Under Salinity: PGPR Monoinoculation and a Tri-Strain Consortium Evaluated in Tomato (In Vitro) and Wheat (Pot Culture)

This study demonstrates that the efficacy of native PGPR strains in mitigating salinity stress is highly host-specific, with a tri-strain consortium proving optimal for tomato while *Pseudomonas* sp. TA3 alone was most effective for wheat, underscoring the necessity of matching microbial ecophysiology to target crops for sustainable saline agriculture.

Effects of Dietary Phytobiotic Supplementation on Growth Performance, Tibia Mineralization, and Serum Antioxidant Status in Growing Japanese Quails

This study demonstrates that while dietary phytobiotic supplementation in growing Japanese quails did not significantly alter growth performance, carcass yield, or serum antioxidant status, it effectively enhanced tibia calcium and phosphorus concentrations without affecting bone breaking strength.
