Climate change mitigation involves carbon sequestration that can be supported by Voluntary
Carbon Markets (VCMs) and counted as Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs)
in national climate change strategies. Integrating these allows for the...
Background
Yellow rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. Tritici (Pst), is one of the most destructive wheat diseases in the world. It can cause, yield losses of up to 100% during severe outbreaks. The use of resistant wheat varieties is the...
Abiotic stressors have a significant impact on crop productivity, with moisture stress being especially important. This study investigates the consequent shifts in sorghum yields in Senegal, using NASA Power and CHIRPS data from 1990 to 2024. Matam...
Soil salinity represents the leading form of land degradation in arid and semi-arid regions. This study employed five hybrid stacking ensemble (SE) machine learning models (SE-GBM, SE-RF, SE-SVM, SE-XGB, and SE-MARS) to map salinity distribution...
Wheat growth is often restricted by drought, but crops have a water compensation effect. This study explored the effects of rewatering after different degrees of drought stress in the early stage of grain-filling (1–10 days post anthesis) on starch...
yields of 8.4 t ha?1 and net profits of US$1097 ha?1, compared with 6.5 t ha?1 and US$675 ha?1 for medium- yield farmers. In the New Lands, the yield gap was more pronounced, with high-yield farmers achieving average yields of 7.5 t ha?1 compared to...
Context
Lentil (Lens culinaris ssp. culinaris Medik.) is a key cool-season legume that suffers significant yield and quality losses under increasing heat and drought stress, particularly during its reproductive stage. With climate change intensifying...
