It is objective needs during utilization and management of regional cultivated land resource to use remote sensing to accurately and efficiently retrieve the status of cultivated land fertility at county level and realize the gradation of cultivated land rapidly. In this study, with Dongping County as a case, using Landsat TM satellite imagery and cultivated land fertility evaluation data, the moisture vegetation fertility index (MVFI) was constructed based on surface water capacity index (SWCI) and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), and then the optimal inversion model was optimized to obtain the best inversion model, which was further applied and verified at the county scale. The results showed that the correlation coefficient between MVFI and integrated fertility index (IFI) was -0.753, which could comprehensively reflect the growth of winter wheat, soil moisture and land fertility, and had clear biophysical significance. The best inversion model was the quadratic model, with high inversion accuracy. This model was suitable for the inversion of cultivated land fertility in the county. The spatial distribution and uniformity of the inversion results were similar to the results of soil fertility evaluation. The area differences between the high, medium and low grades were all less than 2.9%. This study provided a remote sensing inversion method of cultivated land fertility based on the feature space theory, which could effectively improve the evaluation efficiency and prediction accuracy of cultivated land fertility at the county scale.

Multi-environmental trials (MET) with temporal and spatial variance are crucial for understanding genotype-environment-management (GxExM) interactions in crops. Here, we present a MET dataset for winter wheat in Germany. The dataset encompasses MET spanning six years (2015-2020), six locations and nine crop management scenarios (consisting of combinations for three treatments, unbalanced in each location and year) comparing 228 cultivars released between 1963 and 2016, amounting to a total of 526,751 data points covering 24 traits.

In China, the environmental pollution caused by excessive use of chemical pesticides and chemical fertilizers (P&F) has received wide attention. Currently, research on P&F reduction mainly focuses on large-scale plains' cultivated land, while research on fragmented cultivated land is severely limited. This study employs the 2021-2023 tracking data of Zhejiang's fragmented cultivated land farmers to analyze the impacts of new agricultural technologies, plot expansion, and contiguous planting on P&F reduction.

Cultured meat technology represents an innovative food production approach that enables the large-scale cultivation of animal cells to obtain muscle, fat, and other tissues, which are then processed into meat products. Compared to traditional meat production methods, cell-cultured meat may significantly reduce energy consumption by 7% to 45%, greenhouse gas emissions by 78% to 96%, land use by 99%, and water use by 82% to 96%. This technology offers several advantages, including a shorter production cycle and enhanced environmental sustainability, resource efficiency, and overall sustainability.

Dust aerosols significantly impact climate, human health, and ecosystems, but how land cover changes (LCC) influence dust concentrations remains unclear. Here, we applied the Weather Research and Forecasting model coupled with Chemistry (WRF-Chem) to assess the effects of LCC on dust aerosol concentrations from 2000 to 2020 in northern China. Based on land cover data derived from multi-source satellite remote sensing data, we conducted two simulation scenarios: one incorporating actual annual LCC and another assuming static land cover since 2000.
