Nature Nourishes Science Sustains

Issue 1 of The Farm Science brings together four articles highlighting practical agricultural research and sustainable crop production. The issue explores the role of ladybird beetles in controlling aphid populations, zinc and iron biofortification to address hidden hunger, advances in mango propagation through vegetative grafting and field establishment, and the use of semiochemicals in transforming agriculture. Collectively, these articles emphasize science-based approaches to crop protection, improved nutritional quality, efficient propagation, and sustainable agricultural practices.
