Genetically modified (GM) crops have been adopted by some of the world's leading agricultural nations, but full extent their environmental impact remains largely unknown. Although concerns regarding direct effects GM declined, led to indirect changes in practices, including pesticide use, expansion, and cropping patterns, with profound implications. Recent studies paint a nuanced picture these impacts, mixed crop adoption on biodiversity, deforestation, human health that vary trait geographic scale. New or gene-edited different traits would likely impacts.

Tillage, cover crops (CC) and nutrient amendments are regenerative agricultural practices (RAPs) which enhance desirable ecosystem services (DESs), including the beneficial nematode community structure (BNCS), soil organic matter (SOM), pH, available nitrogen, Ferris et al. food web (SFW) model relates changes in BNCS to biophysicochemical conditions generating DESs. However, SFW model’s power identify health influencing DESs’ outcomes has been limited. We tested how tillage, winter rye CC, 0, 112, or 224 kg N/ha from inorganic compost sources affected DESs after four years of corn production.

The preservation of natural heritage is a global concern nowadays, which equally important for climate resilience and sustainable resource use. present research focused on assessing the trends landscape changes, such as forests, meadows, pastures, locally kept traditional livestock, plant varieties indicators biodiversity, in countries European Union between 2012 2021, using secondary data. methodology was panel analysis according to Linear Mixed Model method. results show that while larger areas allocated agriculture generally enhance they have opposite effect number local livestock breeds. spreading organic farming enhances breeds, forest beneficial biodiversity. share permanent meadows pastures increases with increasing agricultural areas, this also affects biodiversity positively. All increased during analyzed period, did well size and, reflects improvement enhancement environmental protection awareness time. differences among show, highly developed does not mean better heritage, nor opposite, ecological conditions history may influence vegetation Europe differs from rest world, recent policy EU emphasizes importance sustainability. promotion low-input use agriculture, however, be conflict globally demand food.

Son yıllarda pamuk yetiştiriciliğinin çevreye verdiği zararlar üzerine pek çok çalışma yapılmıştır ancak tarımının olası olumlu etkileri açısından bazı boşluklar bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, çevresel etkilerini araştırmak amacıyla, 2012-2022 yılları arasında Türkiye'de tarımsal yangınlar ve yetiştiriciliği arasındaki ilişki analiz edilmektedir. Çalışma kapsamında ulusal istatistikler, uzaktan algılama veri setleri sabit etkiler panel yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Türkiye’de tarımı yapılan 21 il için gerçekleştirilen sonucunda, yaygınlaşmasının anız yangınlarını azalttığı sonucuna varılmıştır. sonuç, etkilerine ilişkin gelecekte yapılacak çalışmalarda bu olgunun dikkate alınması gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır.

Introduction To date, the impact of farmer producer organizations (FPOs) in India is under-explored empirical literature. The primary objective this study was to test whether agricultural households with FPO members Uttar Pradesh, have greater crop diversity and higher income, adults those diet women are more empowered. Methods A cross-sectional survey conducted 2023 two groups households, those: (1) an member (n = 417 414 men 412 women) (2) without 402, 395 388 women). Diet measured at individual level using FAO minimum (MDD) score. Women’s empowerment a modified version Abbreviated Empowerment Agriculture Index (A-WEAI) association between membership diversity, household MDD, A-WEAI estimated separate regressions, adjusted for educational attainment, caste, farm size, and, number members. Results had slightly than non-FPO (mean 4 crops versus 3.5 crops, respectively). were likely income from cultivation livestock households. Hence, total annual Adults diverse diets. However, they also consumption unhealthy foods. There not significant difference women’s women. Conclusion These findings suggest that FPOs potentially effective strategy improving farmers’ incomes, has mixed effects on healthfulness This information can be used inform evidence-based policies provide dedicated support promotion improved convergence rural development, agriculture, nutrition.

Super hybrid rice has significantly enhanced agricultural productivity in China, yet its environmental sustainability implications remain poorly understood. Using the food-carbon-nitrogen-energy-profit (FCNEP) framework, we evaluated five elite varieties (LYPJ, YLY1, YLY2, YLY900, XYL900) cultivated between 1999 and 2017. Field experiments were conducted from 2015 to 2017 across four provinces (Hubei, Hunan, Henan, Jiangxi Province) central China under nitrogen treatments (0, 210, 300, 390 kg N/ha). Our findings reveal that while variety evolution boosted yields reduced energy footprints (EFs), it also resulted an increase carbon footprint (CF). Compared with LYPJ, newer increased by 15.0–21.7% net profits 25.9–40.3%, reducing 16.3–22.7%. However, rose 8.0–34.5% 31.0–76.6%, respectively. The composite score, derived FCNEP indicated initial improvement during early breeding stages of super rice. as advanced, score showed a subsequent decline. This study underscores trade-off enhancing maintaining superhybrid breeding. Future initiatives should prioritize balancing yield improvements considerations promote sustainable development.
