Researchers from ADAS have concluded that a single population of Italian ryegrass in Kent has successfully evolved resistance to glyphosate following rigorous laboratory testing and resampling. The discovered case was in a high risk scenario where large weeds were surviving high rates of appropriate glyphosate applications in the run-up to drilling a relatively late drilling spring crop. Signs ...
Due to climate change, regions across Asia and Africa are experiencing higher frequencies of floods and drought. Coupled with rising temperatures, traditional crop-growing patterns have been altered, delayed, and disrupted. A subsequent decline in crop quality and quantity has shown macro-scale impacts on agriculture, vegetable markets, and local community ...

Adopting micropropagation would build upon 7ACRES’ industry-leading cultivation practices by increasing propagation rates, further reducing risks related to plant diseases, and enhancing 7ACRES’ output goals. ...
This was the conclusion reached by maize scientists at Wageningen UR based on many years of practical cultivation tests. The use of earlier varieties increases the chance that the maize will ripen properly and ensures better (soil) conditions for harvesting. ...
If this is combined in a smart way with currently available and site-specific sensor data on soils and crops, precision farming will become possible in practice. Version 2.0 concentrates on sensor data, models, ICT and mechanisation, combining these components to create effective and sustainable applications. ...
The main threats to habitats identified are certain agricultural practices (including modification of cultivation practices, over-grazing, abandonment of pastoral systems, fertilisation and pesticides), and human-induced “modifications of natural conditions” (mostly relating to hydrological changes). ...
Gosal, Director of Research, PAU mentioned that the intensity of diseases like bakanae, false smut and neck blast and insect pests like leaf folder have increased significantly due to changes in climatic conditions and changed cultivation practices. Dr. P. P. Singh, head, Plant Pathology, PAU, emphasized the importance of careful classification of races of ...
The INSPIA* project is designed to give European farmers the opportunity to improve biodiversity and natural capital, whilst increasing the resource efficiency and competitiveness of their agricultural practices. The cultivation of land brings the grains, fruits and meat that sustain us, but without good appropriate management agricultural ...
For jatropha planting to meet its 'pro-poor' objectives, international support is needed for research on genetic improvement of varieties, and on cultivation practices such as water conservation and integrated pest and nutrient management, the review recommends. ...
In these agricultural areas, irrigated cultivation of cereals, fruit trees and vegetables is practised over several thousand square kilometres. ...
