Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSugarcane Response to Water-Deficit Stress during Early Growth on Organic and Sand SoilsDuli Zhao, Barry Glaz, Jack C. ComstockProblem statement: Approximately 20% of sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is grown on sand soils in south Florida, USA. Sugarcane yields in the region linearly increased in last 33 years on organic (muck) soils, but not on sand soils. Water deficit during the formative growth phase on sand soils probably limits sugarcane yields. Approach: A greenhouse study was conducted in 2009 and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 10,260 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Technology for Agriculture at Extreme Altitudes: Design and Evaluation of a Sprinkler Irrigation System in a Peruvian High Andean CommunityJuan Eduardo Suarez Rivadeneira, Freddy A. Manayay, Daniel Olivier Carranza Lizana et al.In high-altitude agroecosystems, erratic rainfall patterns and steep topography severely constrain crop productivity by exposing plants to soil water deficits during critical phenological stages. This study aimed to enhance the productivity of eleven staple and horticultural crops corn (Zea mays), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), cucumber (Cucumis sativus), eggplant (Solanum melongena), lettuce (Lactuca sativa), carrot (Daucus carota), barley (Hordeum vulgare), celery (Apium … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 2 Oct 2026 · 645 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimisation of Plant Mineral Nutrition, Growth Stimulation and Yield Enhancement Through the Use of a Bio Formulation Based on Phosphate Solubilising BacteriaZhanar Zhumadilova, Laura Tokhetova, Gulsim Baimbetova et al.The aim of this study was to evaluate the agronomic and fodder efficiency of various fertilisation treatments in relation to their effects on plant growth, chemical composition, and soil properties. The study evaluated the effectiveness of a bio-formulation based on Phosphate-Solubilising Bacteria (PSB) in combination with mineral fertiliser (N60P90 + N30) in enhancing the productivity of forage crops and improving … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2026 · 385 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Areas Susceptible to Gullies in Ideato South Local Government Area of Nigeria Using Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing TechnologySylvanus IroGully erosion is a critical environmental hazard in Southeastern Nigeria, threatening agricultural productivity, infrastructure, and communal safety. This study provides a spatially explicit assessment of gully erosion susceptibility in Ideato South Local Government Area (LGA), Imo State, using an integrated Geographic Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing framework. The methodology employed a multi-criteria decision-making approach, utilizing the Analytical Hierarchy Process … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 20 Jul 2026 · 1,189 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamics of Mobile Phosphorus and Potassium in the Soils of Agricultural Lands of Kostanay RegionAlmabek Nugmanov, Aliya Yskak, Tatiana Paramonova et al.Soil phosphorus deficiency is a growing constraint on crop productivity in the agricultural lands of the Kostanay Region, Republic of Kazakhstan, yet systematic data on the spatial dynamics of mobile phosphorus and potassium across soil types remain limited. This study assessed the availability of mobile forms of phosphorus and potassium, alongside key physicochemical properties, including soil pH and cation exchange … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 14 Apr 2026 · 1,594 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChanges in the Composition and Diversity of Pasture Grass Due to the Influence of Grazing in the Steppe Zone of Northern KazakhstanAliya Baitelenova, Balzhan Akhylbekova, Meisam Zargar et al.Overgrazing poses a serious threat to the sustainability of steppe pasturelands in Northern Kazakhstan, where intensifying livestock pressure drives significant changes in vegetation composition, species diversity, and soil fertility. This study investigated the effects of grazing intensity on pasture vegetation and chestnut soil properties in the Zhaksyn district of the Akmola region. Field surveys were conducted in July-August 2024 using … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2026 · 1,338 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrophysical Properties of Soils as Indicators of the Hydrological Role of Rudny Altai ForestsAndrey Kalachev, Tamara Burenina, Stanislav Rogovsky et al.The hydrophysical properties of soils and parent rock are key factors shaping forest hydrological functioning, as they influence multiple runoff components. This study assessed the effects of forest stand composition on soil moisture and water permeability between 2021 and 2023 in the middle mountain-taiga zone of the Rudny Altai, within the Zhuravlikha River basin, a tributary of the Irtysh River. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 24 Mar 2026 · 1,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProbe-based Semi-permanent Soil Humidity SensorSoobin Jeon, Dongmahn SeoThe modern agricultural environment has the problems of an aging rural population and a decreasing rural labor population. Recently, smart farms based on information and communication technology have been studied to address environmental issues in agriculture. The smart farm consists of three parts: a data collection unit, a processing unit, and a control unit. Among them, the data collection unit … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 16 Dec 2025 · 1,923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Biochar Quality from Palm and Cacao Waste through Variation of Pyrolysis Temperature and Duration as a Soil Amendment MaterialIwan Saputra, Sugeng Prijono et al.Palm and cacao waste are high-quality raw materials for producing quality biochar that enhances soil fertility, provided that the biochar production process takes into account various aspects of pyrolysis. The pyrolysis conditions, such as temperature and duration, significantly impact the quality of the biochar produced as a soil amendment. The type of raw material, pyrolysis temperature, duration, and other conditions … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 27 Jul 2024 · 5,558 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSurvey and Distribution of Plant Parasitic Nematodes on Tomato at Baruasagar in Jhansi (India)Abha Sachan, Rajesh Kumar Pandey, Shailendra Kumar et al.Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) is an important high-value vegetable crop and acts as a natural medicine that alleviates the risk of a condition such as cancer and cardiovascular disease.
