Dissipation Kinetics and Residue Distribution of Imazethapyr in Urdbean (Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper) and Urdbean Field soil and its Effect on soil Microbial Population.

Imazethapyr is the most common herbicide used for weed management in pulses. A field trial was carried out with imazethapyr 10% SL formulation at 100 and 150 g a.i.

Managing synthetic N-fertilizer emissions in India: Insights from field surveys across 102 districts.

The use of fixed emission factors (EFs), combined with insufficient temporal distribution, leads to substantial uncertainties in current emission inventories for India, the world's second-largest producer and consumer of synthetic N-fertilizers. Our study aimed to improve the NH and NO emission estimates by utilizing crop-specific district-level activity data and refined EFs tailored to Indian conditions. In this study, a comprehensive NH and NO emission inventory (EI) is methodically developed at 0.

Pulse-based cropping systems for soil health restoration, resources conservation, and nutritional and environmental security in rainfed agroecosystems.

Pulses are an important source of energy and protein, essential amino acids, dietary fibers, minerals, and vitamins, and play a significant role in addressing global nutritional security. The global pulse area, production, and average productivity increased from 1961 to 2020 (60 years). Pulses are usually grown under rainfed, highly unstable, and complex production environments, with substantial variability in soil and environmental factors, high year-to-year output variability, and variation in soil moisture.

Mechanistic insight on boron-mediated toxicity in plant its mitigation strategies: a review.

Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient, crucial for the growth and development of crop plants. However, the essential to a toxic range of B in the plant is exceptionally narrow, and symptoms develop with a slight change in its concentration in soil. The morphological and anatomical response, such as leaf chlorosis, stunted growth, and impairment in the xylem and phloem development occurs under B-toxicity.
