Optimal crop planting pattern can be harmful to reach carbon neutrality: Evidence from food-energy-water-carbon nexus perspective

Liuyue He et al.

Summary: Global warming, water scarcity, and limited land resources pose significant challenges to ensuring food security. However, the current classical optimal planting pattern has limited effectiveness in achieving carbon neutrality goals and resource conservation. Research findings show that the optimal planting pattern may have negative impacts on carbon sequestration, but positive effects on water productivity and economic benefits. Therefore, it is recommended to redefine the optimal planting pattern in crop management to address the crisis of global warming.

Jing Fu et al.

Summary: Large-scale agricultural activities can worsen global climate change. This study quantifies the impact of water-saving techniques (WSTs) on the local climate in Northwest China and reveals that the adoption of WSTs has led to an increase in temperature and a decrease in humidity. Additionally, a threshold value of WST coverage is found before any noticeable warming effect occurs, and regions with relatively humid climates respond more significantly to WST.

Effects of irrigation and fertilization on different potato varieties growth, yield and resources use efficiency in the Northwest China

Yingying Xing et al.

Summary: The scarcity of irrigation water is a major constraint for global crop production, especially for potato growth in arid and semiarid regions. Field experiments were conducted to study the effects of irrigation amount, fertilizer rate, and potato variety on potato yield, quality, and water and fertilizer productivity. The results showed significant impacts of these factors on potato growth, with Feiurita variety performing better than Xiapoti variety. The W2F3V1 and W3F2V1 treatments were recommended as the best water and fertilizer management in sandy loam soils in Northwest China.

How sustainable is sustainable intensification? Assessing yield gaps at field and farm level across the globe

Joao Vasco Silva et al.

Summary: This study suggests that while there is potential for intensification in cereal production in southern Ethiopia, the current input use in these farming systems is not economically and environmentally sustainable at farm level. Similarly, sustainable intensification in rice production in Central Luzon can help narrow yield gaps and improve N use efficiency, but is not profitable due to reliance on costly hired labor. On the other hand, arable farms in the Netherlands show higher economic performance, NUE and N surplus, indicating the need for improved resource-use efficiency and reduced environmental impacts for environmental sustainability. Public investments in innovation and profitable farming are essential for narrowing yield gaps and promoting sustainability at the farm level.
