(Springer, 2021-06)
Studies were conducted to broaden the current knowledge on seasonality, richness, abundance, and role of syrphids flies in the greenhouse pepper agroecosystem (GPA) in northwestern Argentina. In the GPA, a great richness ...
A paradigm shift to CO2 sequestration to manage global warming – With the emphasis on developing countries
(Elsevier, 2021-06-01)
Global land use changes that tend to satisfy the food needs of augmenting population is provoking agricultural soils to act as a carbon (C) source rather than sink. Agricultural management practices are crucial to offset ...
Improving soil organic nitrogen and sulfur pools by cover cropping and crop fertilization in soybean-based cropping systems
(Elsevier, 2021-07-10)
