This study investigated the effects of four plant extracts on agronomic performance mung bean ( Vigna radiata ) during 2020 growing season at two sites in northern highlands Tanzania, namely Miwaleni and TARI Selian, located Kilimanjaro Arusha regions, respectively. The tested included Tephrosia vogelii, Clutia abyssinica, Clausena anisata , Lobelia giberroa using a randomized complete block design with replications. Extract concentrations ranged from 0 to 10,000 mg, variety “ Imara ” being used. results indicated that site significantly outperformed SARI Selian grain yield, 762 279 kg ha −1 height, 59.6 58.6 cm, Notably, L. gibelloa produced highest yield 583.6 p = 0.011) greater than C.

Climate-induced increase in temperature and rainfall variability severely threaten the agricultural sector food security Indian state of Odisha. Climate-smart (CSA) practices, such as crop rotation integrated soil management, help farmers adapt to climate risk contribute a reduction greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Therefore, this paper examines impact CSA practices on yield income vulnerable semi-arid districts Odisha—Balangir, Kendrapara, Mayurbhanj. We use primary survey data from 494 households collected 2019–2020, using multi-stage stratified sampling approach structured questionnaire. Propensity score matching (PSM) two-stage least square method (2SLS) have been used analyze productivity. Two instrument variables, namely distance extension office percentage adopters village, are control self-selection bias endogeneity our model. Both models show positive significant adoption farmers' productivity income. The study sheds light contribution fostering sustainable growth amid environmental challenges. Overall, results suggest that small marginal Eastern India, highly environmentally area, can significantly improve their by adopting technology. Hence, policymakers should scale technology through effective programs.
