Abstract Cereals are the most cultivated and traded crops for food, feed, industrial uses worldwide. Among other producing regions, Africa hosts 27% of world's total cereal production. Like staple crops, production cereals such as maize, rice, wheat, millet sorghum in Sub-Saharan is threatened by herbivorous pests weeds leading to significant losses. The fall armyworm insect ( Spodoptera frugiperda ) reduces maize 21–53%, while stem borers Busseola fusca account 82% all losses Kenya. About 50% yield loss has been attributed Imperata cylindrica infestations Nigeria if not controlled. Parasitic Striga spp. infest over 64% cereal-cultivated lands resulting up 10–100% loss. Granivorous birds Quelea responsible an average 15–20% damage semi-arid zones Africa. Rodents multimammate rat also pose a threat causing 48% on fields across With changing climate drought flooding, these likely intensify. Hence, this review presents elaborate overview current pathogens whose might increase due climatic conditions.

Abstract Weeds have a significant impact on vegetable production worldwide. These intensive cropping systems feature frequent tillage, fertilization and irrigation, providing ideal growing conditions for crops as well certain weeds. Integrated weed management (IWM) can reduce reliance herbicides by encouraging approach to management. Using insights from global research industry literature, we investigated the effectiveness of prevailing control methods, evaluated emerging practices technologies ongoing adoption. Weed relies primarily relatively narrow range tillage. Herbicides negative impacts soil, water human health, while tillage soil quality function. Intensive smaller plots facilitates IWM, relying multiple strategies including hand weeding, mulches, cover cultural methods (e.g., crop rotations, timing). New herbicide options are suggested an priority but constrained lack new chemistry potential resistance. Refinement adoption non‐herbicide precision into farm IWM in vegetables is more likely be sustainable. This review relevant advanced globally, also smallholder developing economies.

Oil extraction methods such as fracking and drilling can disperse radioactive elements into the environment, posing potential hazards. Certain plants like Bermuda grass combat this through rhizodegradation, a process that breaks down pollutants harmless substances.

A study showed roots absorbed high levels elements, especially Uranium in soil. distribution concentration these isotopes varied across different sites. For instance, Cesium-137 higher activity leaves than These findings highlight accumulation patterns influence natural radionuclide on environment. Approaches amendments, microbial assistance, genetically modified enhance rhizoremediation efficiency. Strategic planning species selection are key to overcoming challenges enhancing its effectiveness. In addition, samples from AL-Dora Refinery degree contamination heavy metals, with emission burning fuel crude oil being main sources. This indicates metals.
