The effect of agricultural practices on soil bacterial communities is not constant and depends a lot the climatic context, changes in characteristics, land use, strategy. Thus, knowledge about how different use systems Cerrado influence diversity taxonomic structure microbial under same type remains limited. In this objective work was to analyze compare two (cover crop potato cultivation) neighboring native area. For this, we used high-throughput amplicon sequencing 16S rRNA genes (metabarcoding) characterize community at levels area, an area with cover crops. Our data indicated significant impacts physicochemical properties enzymatic activity, which directly reflect dynamics communities. three phyla highest relative abundance areas were Proteobacteria, Actinobacteriota, Acidobacteriota.

Worlds apart: Plant health and One Health and a path to convergence

CABI One Health, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Апрель 10, 2025

Abstract Plant health is increasingly recognized as a vital part of One Health. Yet, action lags behind recognition. Historically focused on service provision, zoonotic diseases, and antimicrobial resistance, Health often overlooks plant in strategic plans. The paradox? Cross-sectoral approaches, core to Health, are already used fields like agroecology, sustainable food systems, integrated landscape management – just not under the banner. disconnect between worlds limits recognition interconnected challenges, obscures critical knowledge gaps, stifles opportunities for synergy. By staying outside Health’s framework, “plant world” misses political institutional clout bodies Quadripartite High-Level Expert Panel, essential driving global support. FAO other plant-focused stakeholders could assert their role more clearly tackling severe issues pesticide risks, mycotoxins, invasive species, biodiversity loss. Barriers change persist. professionals do associate work with traditional actors may fail see value integrating health. However, there signs that gradually happening. Ideas initiatives surfacing, demonstrating different ways which approaches can be health, such ensure all aspects problem considered looking solutions, or integrate biosecurity policy regulatory framework. planning next phase Joint Plan Action presents timely opportunity rethink strategies break down barriers currently limit true cross-domain integration. impact statement Although included definition, significant conceptual, disciplinary, power-related gaps hinder its practical integration, reinforcing persistent focus zoonoses resistance (AMR). collaboration agenda-setting entity, must address fragmentation within United Nations (UN) system coordination effective inclusion This paper adds nuance perspective debate, challenges decision-makers, researchers, practitioners funders broaden scope, recognizing achieving goals.

Unseen Drivers of Antimicrobial Resistance: The Role of Industrial Agriculture and Climate Change in This Global Health Crisis

Challenges, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 16(2), С. 22 - 22

Опубликована: Апрель 21, 2025

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an urgent global health threat with many anthropogenic drivers outside of healthcare. The impacts modern agriculture on human are manifold, from the food systems and dietary patterns they support to less apparent effects environmental stresses biodiversity loss in ecosystems. Intensive practices, such as chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, induce abiotic that deplete drive AMR soil aquatic microbiomes. overuse antibiotics livestock production another major driver AMR. Changes weather due climate change have potential exacerbate these issues warmer wetter increases for bacterial infection. While practices exist address healthcare-associated drivers, impact destruction not widely appreciated healthcare biomedical sciences. It imperative professionals public experts understand connections properly emergent issue This review aims summarize current data important agricultural educational purposes, fill gaps knowledge, improve stimulate further research.

Integrating Green Infrastructure into Sustainable Agriculture to Enhance Soil Health, Biodiversity, and Microclimate Resilience

Sustainability, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 17(9), С. 3838 - 3838

Опубликована: Апрель 24, 2025

While green infrastructure (GI) offers numerous benefits, its implementation in low-resource settings remains constrained by limited policy support and upfront costs, highlighting the need for context-sensitive strategies. This paper highlights value of integrating GI within sustainable agricultural systems effectiveness various techniques improving soil microbial communities reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The transition to requires innovative strategies that balance productivity, environmental conservation, resilience climate change. Sustainable agriculture increasingly leverages technological innovations enhance biodiversity, microclimate resilience. Green has found direct application agroforestry, conservation buffers, precision agriculture, health monitoring systems, nature-based solutions such as regenerative management. These applications are crucial enhancing health, water retention, while mitigating microclimatic impacts. Precision tools, like IoT sensors, drones, AI-driven analytics, allow farmers optimize water, nutrient, pesticide use, boosting yields efficiency minimizing impact. Simultaneously, advanced technologies track moisture, nutrients, biological activity real time, informing practices maintain long-term fertility carbon sequestration. integrated approach practical on-farm higher crop stability during droughts enhanced habitats beneficial species. In conclusion, there is a supportive frameworks, subsidies adoption, incentives microclimate, development programs, knowledge-sharing initiatives, encourage farmer adoption.

Integrating food is medicine and regenerative agriculture for planetary health

Frontiers in Nutrition, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 11

Опубликована: Дек. 12, 2024

The urgent need to address both human and environmental health crises has brought attention the role of food systems in driving climate change, biodiversity loss, diet-related diseases. This paper explores intersection Food is Medicine (FIM) regenerative agriculture (RA) as an emerging approach with potential help interconnected challenges ecological within healthcare systems. FIM programs, such produce prescriptions medically tailored meals, aim improve outcomes by increasing access nutritious foods promoting nutrition equity. RA, focusing on soil health, biodiversity, reduced reliance synthetic inputs, offers more sustainable agricultural practices that can align goals. highlights key opportunities, recent policy developments, evidence gaps, calling for concerted efforts clearly define RA foster collaboration between community, healthcare, agriculture, stakeholders. Strengthening these interconnections could lead resilient improved at individual population levels.
