This review is motivated by the urgent need to improve soil organic carbon (SOC) assessment methods, which are vital for enhancing soil health, addressing climate change, and promoting carbon farming. By employing a structured approach that involves...

This paper aims to explore the willingness of farmers in the northern Namibia to adopt conservation agriculture (CA), employing the conditional logit model to estimate the probability of farmers choosing to adopt CA in different villages relative to...

Soil salinisation is a critical problem in northern China’s arid and semi-arid irrigated regions, posing a substantial impediment to the sustainable advancement of agriculture in these areas. This research utilises the Donghaixin Irrigation Dis...

This study aimed to investigate the effects of HDPE and Cd on forms of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) by measuring the changes in enzymatic activities and physicochemical properties of Spartina alterniflora soil samples from coastal regions of China. Ov...

This study proposes an object detector for apple trees as a first step in developing agricultural digital twins. An original dataset of orchard images was created and used to train Single Shot MultiBox Detector (SSD) and You Only Look Once (YOLO) mod...

Water is a crucial resource in agriculture, but climate change has led to more frequent droughts, particularly at the start of the growing season, adversely affecting crop yields. This paper evaluates soil water retention capacity (SWRC) in the Prote...

The development of cooperatives represents an effective solution to address the looming issue of “who will harvest the rubber”. Participation in cooperatives has the potential to increase the income of natural rubber farmers, enhance agri...

Soil salinization in farmland is a critical factor limiting global soil health, food security, and ecosystem productivity. Biochar has recently shown great application potential in agricultural fields in many domains, such as soil structure improveme...

Historically, innovation has been a milestone in achieving sustainable agriculture for small-scale producers. For several centuries, innovation has improved agricultural activity. However, there is still the challenge of introducing technologies pert...

The study is devoted to determining the factors affecting the volume of agricultural production, the ability to meet the food needs of populations, as well as the environmental efficiency of production, defined as the ratio of the number of kilocalor...
