Flanders, a densely populated region in Belgium, faces challenges in balancing agricultural production with renewable energy targets. Agrivoltaic systems combine solar energy and agricultural activity on the same field and can increase land productivity while simultaneously expanding the share of renewables. However, its potential and implications for the region is geographically complex.

Black soil farmland protection is a necessary measure in China to achieve sustainable, high-quality farmland development. Biochar, as a new type of soil amendment, has been shown to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase crop yields. However, few studies have addressed the widespread application of biochar from a productivity perspective.

Wheat is a crucial crop for food and nutritional security in Mediterranean and MENA regions, yet it faces significant challenges due to high yield variability, low average productivity, and substantial yield gaps. This highlights the urgent need for improved agricultural practices to enhance its productivity and resilience. The region's climate climate change, soil degradation, and water supply variability significantly impact wheat production, requiring innovative and integrated solutions to minimize yield gaps and improve sustainability.

Late spring frosts are a major problem for apple production in Germany. Frost events frequently lead to yield losses and quality reduction. This has motivated the development of several frost protection measures, which differ in terms of effectiveness, costs and workload. In many cases, it is an open question for fruit growers if investing in frost protection is worthwhile and which strategy would most positively affect their bottom line.

The agriculture and food system face challenges related to climate change, biodiversity loss, agricultural pollution, and food security. An environmentally and resource friendly development of food security is required at international and national levels. Digitalisation and Artificial Intelligence (AI) offer opportunities to address these challenges and facilitate the transformation of agriculture and the food value chain.

European agriculture faces numerous challenges, and agroecology has emerged as a promising alternative. To facilitate this transition, integrating agroecology into agricultural education is crucial. However, its systemic and interdisciplinary nature makes it difficult to teach and learn. To support teaching, the “SErious Game for AgroEcology” (SEGAE) was developed. SEGAE is a simulated mixed crop–livestock farm model in which players can learn by doing.

Excessive nitrogen (N) fertilization has led to serious environmental problems. Exploring the spatial distribution of rice yields and N loss is crucial to determine optimal N fertilizer management. However, previous studies are mostly based on field scale, it's a big challenge to use model approach to explore the spatial distribution and influencing factors of rice yields and N loss due to lack of field management, soil and crop information at regional scale.

The development of pink bollworm (PBW) resistance to Bt cotton and the rise of boll rot (BR) disease pose significant challenges to cotton production in India. Both PBW and BR significantly reduce cotton yields by damaging seeds and lint. Damage caused by PBW often resembles BR infection leading to misdiagnosis and incorrect control measures. The lack of precise methods for quantifying yield losses caused by PBW and BR prompted genesis of this study.
