Global food security, biodiversity conservation and the future of agricultural intensification

TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that the true value of functional biodiversity on the farm is often inadequately acknowledged or understood, while conventional intensification tends to disrupt beneficial functions of biodiversity.
Journal ArticleDOI

A survey of the impact of cropping on soil physical and chemical properties in north-western New South Wales

TL;DR: A soil survey was conducted on cropped and uncropped Red Earths (Alfisols), Grey Clays, and Black Earths in northern New South Wales as discussed by the authors, where the degradation of soil physical properties was reflected in declines of 29-86% in hydraulic conductivity (K) and 33-71% in aggregation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Managing crop residues, fertilizers and leaf litters to improve soil C, nutrient balances, and the grain yield of rice and wheat cropping systems in Thailand and Australia

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of residue and fertilizer management on nutrient balances, soil organic matter (SOM) dynamics, and crop yields of a flooded rice system in northeast Thailand (1992-1997) and a wheat-forage legume rotation in eastern Australia (1992−1998).
