Growth and development of cereal crops are linked to weather, day length and growing
degree-days (GDDs) which make them responsive to the specific environments in specific …

Using artificial intelligence (AI) and the IoT (Internet of Things) is a primary focus of applied
engineering research to improve agricultural efficiency. This review paper summarizes the …

Here, we show that lignin-first biorefining of poplar can enable the production of dissolving
cellulose pulp that can produce regenerated cellulose, which could substitute cotton. These …

Fabrication processes of fossil fuel-derived carbon nanomaterials are of high carbon
emissions. Deriving carbon materials from low-cost and sustainable biomass is eco-friendly …

Magnesium (Mg) is an element involved in various key cellular processes in plants. Mg
transporter (MGT) genes play an important role in magnesium distribution and ionic balance …

This research provides an in-depth understanding of cotton production in Benin. The
analysis explored the effects of cotton production on economic growth using a vector error …

The visible form of an organism is the result of its genotype, environment and complex
interaction and is referred to as phenotype. Quick, precise and non-destructive …

To achieve a viable forest-based biorefinery, both the carbohydrate and lignin parts of the
raw material should be valorized. While lignin-first approaches have successfully been …

In this study, a deep-learning-based intelligent detection model was designed and
implemented to rapidly detect cotton pests and diseases. The model integrates cutting-edge …

The efficiency of nitrogenous fertilizers in South Asia is on a declining trajectory due to
increased losses. Biochar (BC) and slow-releasing nitrogen fertilizers (SRNF) have been …
