Sustainable Agriculture Through Agricultural Waste Management: A Comprehensive Review of Composting’s Impact on Soil Health in Moroccan Agricultural Ecosystems
Agricultural activities generate substantial quantities of waste, which are often relegated to landfills or incineration. However, these residues can be effectively valorized through composting, which transforms them into valuable organic...
An introduction to conducting responsible and reproducible agricultural research
This article aims to provide researchers with introductory guidance to good practices in the design, conduct and reporting of agricultural research. This narrative review considers issues related to research co-design, ethics and integrity...
The Dynamics of Food Demand in Algeria: A Differential System Approach
In Algeria, it happens that the quantitative assessment of food consumption patterns is less present in analytical studies of demand. The food consumption pattern has undergone since independence (1962) radical and even drastic changes, and this...
Review of climate-resilient agriculture for ensuring food security: Sustainability opportunities and challenges of India
Climate Resilient Agriculture (CRA) effectively responds to climate change while contributing to sustainable productivity adapted to local hydro-meteorological conditions. CRA provides resilience to climate variability by enhancing agricultural...
Making use of synergies from integrated land-climate-biodiversity action pays off
Collaboration between the Rio Conventions and coordinated action both at international and national level could offer considerable benefits. Drawing on their research in Rwanda and Central Asia, our authors demonstrate the economic potential...
Local agro-industrial by-products offer feasible options to supplement breeding rams in mixed farming systems of Ethiopia
The study assessed the supplemental effect of flushing Menz breeding rams with local agro-industrial by-products on their reproductive performance and semen quality. It recommends the use of wheat bran-based supplementation strategies to enhance...
Genome-wide association mapping and genomic prediction of water deficit stress tolerance indices in spring bread wheat
Genome-wide association mapping (GWAM) is crucial for identifying the genetic architecture of quantitative traits, such as drought tolerance indices in bread wheat. This study aims to identify Marker-Trait Associations (MTAs) and genes related...
Estimates of genetic parameters and genetic trends for growth traits in Menz sheep under community-based breeding programs
The main objectives of this study were to estimate genetic and phenotypic parameters for growth traits in Menz sheep under community-based breeding programs (CBBPs). Data used in the study were collected from five Menz CBBPs villages during 15...
Performance of specific CMIP6 GCMs for simulating the historical rainfall and temperature climatology of Lake Tana sub-basin, Ethiopia
This study aims to evaluate the performance of 7 rainfall and 6 temperature products from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 (CMIP6) Global climate models (GCMs) for simulating the rainfall, maximum temperature (Tmax), and minimum...
Advanced prediction of rice yield gaps under climate uncertainty using machine learning techniques in Eastern India
The current study focuses on applying machine learning approaches to forecast future Kharif rice yield gaps in eastern India while accounting for climate change implications. To achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)...
