Emerging microbial biocontrol strategies for plant pathogens. (2018, neutral): “However, regardless of the significant importance of chemicals for pest and disease management, fungicide resistance has been one of the unavoidable problems [58,59].”
Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria are more effective under drought: a meta-analysis (2017, background): “By 2050, the world’s population will exceed 9.1 billion (Carvalho 2006), and food demand is expected to more than double (Green et al. 2005).”
The role of olfaction in aphid host location (2012, background): “Increasing concerns over environmental and economic costs of pesticide usage (Carvalho, 2006), as well as changes in pesticide legislation, increase the need for the development of new pest control strategies.”
Harnessing Soil Microbes to Improve Plant Phosphate Efficiency in Cropping Systems (2019, neutral): “To combat yield reduction and meet the demand for food of the growing human population, chemical fertilizers, including monoammonium phosphonate, diammonium phosphate, superphosphate, and different formulations of NPK, have been used extensively worldwide since the 1960s to provide additional P [16]”
Quantifying pesticide overuse from farmer and societal points of view: An application to Thailand (2013, background): “Policies in developing countries do not adequately address pesticide risk, as policy-makers fear that restricting pesticide use will harm food production (Carvalho, 2006).”
A review of the use of convolutional neural networks in agriculture (2018, background): “Food needs to maintain a high nutritional value while its security must be ensured around the world (Carvalho, 2006).”
Agricultural pesticides and land use intensification in high, middle and low income countries (2012, background): “developed countries are reducing their use while developing countries are increasing theirs (Carvalho, 2006), that pesticide intensity reduces with economic development - following the environmental Kuznets curve (Managi, 2006; Stern, 2004), and that developing countries,”
