Results of an international study show that it is worth planting mangroves on tropical coasts – whether for renaturation or as part of restoration campaigns. They revealed that Planted forests of Rhizophora mangroves…
Countries hardest hit by hunger and climate change are also the ones with the lowest volume of agri-food research targeting them, according to an analysis by an international research team scoping more than six million…
Increasing global food demand will require more food production without further exceeding the planetary boundaries while simultaneously adapting to climate change. An international team of researchers used simulation…
A genetic “off switch” that shuts down the process in which legume plants convert atmospheric nitrogen into nutrients has been identified for the first time by a team of international scientists, led by researchers of La…
Lack of nitrogen limits food production in poor countries, while excessive nitrogen use in industrial countries has led to transgression of the planetary boundary. However, the potential of spatial redistribution of…
Abrupt shifts within complex systems such as the Earth’s climate system are extremely hard to predict. Scientists of two German research insitutes have now succeeded in developing a new method to anticipate such tipping…
Agroecological food system transformation has been identified as one solution to repair the broken global food system. However, in-depth evidence of the agroecological status, based on the ten elements of agroecology,…
Addressing soil health is recognised as a key strategy to improve fertiliser efficiency, and this is particularly important in Africa, where fertiliser is a scarce resource. Our authors have established the potential…
A new startup company, based at the UK’s University of Bath, is leading the charge to a new form of sustainable power, by creating a battery that recharges itself when placed in soil.
New research by the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU) and the International Institute of Applied Science (IIASA) proposes using soil bacteria to cut greenhouse gas emissions from food production.
