Background: The use of pesticides among smallholder farmers, agrochemical sellers, and agricultural officers involves a complex interplay of knowledge, economic factors, and regulatory frameworks. Therefore, this study explores the patterns, practice...

Carbon dots (CDs) are promising for agro-environmental applications; however, clear connections between synthesis, photophysical properties, size, and biosafety are often not well established. In this study, we map these relationships for glucose&nda...

Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) cultivation in the United States has expanded rapidly over the past decade. Due to federal and state regulations, only a limited number of studies have examined the chemical options available for controlling pests on C. sati...

Modern agriculture faces a critical challenge from escalating fungicide resistance and the ecological impact of conventional agrochemicals. A paradigm shift is required, moving beyond simple product substitution toward an integrated technological pla...

Weeds have acquired resistance to commonly used herbicides, and to replace them, new products, including those of natural origin, have been produced. This study evaluated the neurotoxicity, cytotoxicity, and changes in the antioxidant system caused b...

Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) is a polymorphic species that synthesizes an array of bioactive metabolites, with cannabinoids and terpenoids constituting the major chemical classes. Until recently, the lack of legislative framework led to limited research...

Since the late 1970s, brown spot of pear (BSP), a fungal disease caused by Stemphylium vesicarium (Wallr.) Simmons, has been one of the most important pear fungal diseases in Italy. To protect orchards from BSP, frequent fungicide application is esse...

Pinus taeda plantations have been facing declining productivity in South America, especially due to competition for natural resources such as light, water, and nutrients. Competition with spontaneous vegetation in the early years is one of the main c...
