Returning home after attending and successful delivery of our agricultural system digital platform HOLOSIE, leading to HOLOSEU, at the @EGU General Assembly held in Vienna, Austria. Thanks to Research Ireland and ICT-AGRI-FOOD ERA-NET for funding the projects.

Harvest Are there any postdoc opportunities with Harvest? I'm based in the University of Maryland, and my position was terminated due to the recent funding freeze. I work on remote sensing, cover crops, precision agriculture, soil health, and climate impact on crop production.

The figure in this article illustrates exactly how most biology papers are secretly p-hacked. A large number of hypotheses is explored, and only the ones that form a coherent story are reported. This is actually the main reason behind the replication crisis in biology IMO.

I'm still shocked that this is the reality of farming.

Pesticides and Copper in Swiss Vineyards. Our new paper by Barmettler et al. is out and just published (lnkd.in/egBeX6mT): We analysed 146 synthetic pesticides and copper in 59 organic and conventional vineyards in Switzerland. On average we observed 29 different

Ever heard of wood vinegar? As a co-product of biomass pyrolysis, it may offset biochar’s high production costs and has, importantly, advantageous effects on plant productivity and thereby potential for sustainable agriculture, as we show in this review. mdpi.com/2073-4395/15/4…

I had a fun time discussing our Rothamsted Research research into biology in dynamic soil systems with Andrew and Ed. Challenging questions, and i got to talk about my other passion, too. Please dip in to their Farming 4.0 back issues too. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/epi…
