Overview
Crop production encompasses the cultivation and management of plants for food, fiber, and other agricultural purposes, involving practices that influence yield, sustainability, and resource efficiency. Research published in this journal addresses multiple dimensions of crop production, including the application of permaculture and sustainable farming practices in specific regional contexts such as the Maltese Islands, agronomic requirements for crops like hot pepper in Ethiopia, and cultivation techniques for sunflower and sugar beet under varying nitrogen conditions in Sudan. Studies examine the relationship between climate change, land degradation, and food security, particularly in India's agricultural systems, while investigating fertilizer response optimization and the role of residue retention in semi-arid tropical environments. The journal has published work on soil health assessment methods, questioning whether conventional soil testing adequately captures comprehensive soil health indicators for fertilizer recommendations. Additional research explores the integration of geoscience and remote sensing technologies in horticultural management and pest control strategies in both soil-based and hydroponic strawberry production. These investigations reflect ongoing efforts to balance productivity demands with environmental sustainability, addressing fundamental questions about long-term agricultural intensification and the strategic shifts needed in fertilizer use and crop management practices.
