Flood risk and associated impacts are major societal policy concerns following widespread flooding in December 2015, which cost the UK economy an estimated £5 billion. Increasing advocacy for alternatives to conventional hard engineering solutions is accompanied by demands evidence. This study provides a systematic review meta‐analysis of direct evidence effect tree cover on channel discharge. The results highlighted deficiency From 7 eligible studies 156 papers reviewed, show that...
The environmental and biodiversity benefits of organic farming are widely recognized, but there is still controversy about the effects production methods on nutritional composition food human health. In first part this article therefore, we critically review evidence that improve quality crops. Moreover, summarize our current understanding how gains linked to implementation “innovations” introduced into conventional crop during intensification or “green revolution” agriculture over last 100...
The sustainability of dairying has been questioned, yet cattle exploit non-food resources (especially forages) and provide key nutrients for consumers’ health. This study, using different forage types, considered milk’s nutritional quality, focusing on fatty acid profiles alongside methane emissions—investigating whether can be predicted from milk acids (FAs). Compared with grass/clover/maize silage, cows grazing grass/clover pasture produced 70% higher in beneficial omega-3 FAs, which...
Observational studies have linked Mediterranean Diets (MedDiets) and organic food consumption with positive health outcomes, which may be explained by higher mineral micronutrient phenolic intake lower dietary exposure to toxic compounds.We aimed determine the effects of diet type (organic compared conventional) on urinary excretion (UE) and/or plasma concentrations micronutrients, phenolics, metals.Healthy adult participants were randomly allocated a conventional (n = 14) or an intervention...
Abstract Rye ( Secale cereale L.) is a minor cereal with potential to support sustainable farming practices. This study evaluated the performance of four old and modern European open‐pollinated winter rye cultivars grown different nitrogen (N) sources (cattle slurry, farmyard manure, biogas digestate, mineral N) at two rates N 50 100 kg ha −1 in United Kingdom Estonia, 2014–2015 2015–2016 growing seasons. Grain yield Estonia was higher than (6.2 vs. 4.8 t ), which attributed ear density...
