Relevance. The Volgograd region is a of risky farming. In the spring-summer period, cultivated crop (melons) often exposed to stress factors: spring frosts, abnormal heat, temperature changes, which negatively affects growth and development plants. this regard, it necessary develop new adaptive agrotechnical methods for cultivation melons gourds in order obtain stable yields high quality. Mater...

Although climate-smart agriculture can simultaneously decline greenhouse gas emissions, increase the adaptive capacity of farmers and improve food security under climate change, constraints drivers scaling up are not entirely addressed in developing countries. This qualitative case study was conducted on both strawberry growers agricultural experts to explore perceived causes, evidence impacts ...

Based on the Yearbook of Meteorological Disasters in China, we analyzed spatiotemporal variations major meteorological disaster (MD) losses at provincial scale during 2001–2020 to determine MDs and vulnerability China. Our results suggest that impacts MDs, including floods, droughts, hail strong winds (HSs), low temperature frosts (LTFs), typhoons, have been substantial China affect an average ...

Pansy (Viola tricolor var. hortensis DC.) is a biennial large-flowered hybrid plant cultivated as popular ornamental in urban green areas. The plants prefers sun and well-drained soil, but also tolerate low temperatures. optimal time for transplanting pansy seedlings outdoors beds autumn, although early autumn frosts can affect the insufficient nutrient uptake, which be limiting factor seedling...

In recent years, new approaches to intensive blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) production have become necessary, in terms of protected environments and planting systems. These are designed avoid numerous difficulties, such as market saturation, damage from hailstorms, bird attacks, spring frosts, specific soil property requirements. Use high tunnels a custom substrate (e.g., pots, along ridge...

The studies were carried out in the steppe zone of West Kazakhstan. object research was planting potatoes an irrigated area. An analysis climate change towards warming revealed increase heat supply during warm period year. sum positive air temperatures above +10 °С this 3251.1 °С, and duration vegetative 172 days. Under conditions increasing, experiments made for obtaining possibility two crops...

In trees adapted to cold climates, conditions during autumn and winter may influence the subsequent timing of bud burst and hence tree survival during early spring frosts. We tested the effects of two temperatures during dormancy induction and mild spells (MS) during chilling on the timing of bud burst in three Picea abies (L.) Karst. provenances (58-66 degrees N). One-year-old seedlings were i...
