    Abstract The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region has seen remarkable population growth over the last century, outpacing other global regions and resulting in an over-reliance on food imports. In consequence, it has become heavily dependent on grain imports, making it vulnerable to trade disruptions (e.g., due to the Russia-Ukraine War). Here, we quantify the importance of imported grains for dietary protein and energy, and determine the level of import reductions at which countries are threatened with severe hunger. Utilizing statistics provided by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), we employed a stepwise calculation process to quantify the allocation of both locally produced and imported grains between the food and feed sectors. These calculations also enabled us to establish a connection between feed demand and production levels. Our analysis reveals that, across the MENA region, 40% of total dietary energy (1,261 kcal/capita/day) and 63% of protein (55 g/capita/day) is derived from imported grains, and could thus be jeopardized by trade disruptions. This includes 164 kcal/capita/day of energy and 11 g/capita/day of protein imported from Russia and Ukraine. If imports from these countries ceased completely, the region would thus face a severe challenge to adequately feed its population. This study emphasizes the need for proactive measures to mitigate risks and ensure a stable food and feed supply in the MENA region.

    Abstract Excessive water and fertiliser inputs, as well as long-term monocropping, not only cause resource waste and environmental pollution but also drive soil degradation and the occurrence of soil-borne diseases. Anaerobic soil disinfestation (ASD) is a widely used technique in greenhouse vegetable production to replace the use of agrochemicals in disinfestation and improve product quality. While the short-term effects of ASD on the soil microbial community have been well documented in the past 15 years, only a few studies have investigated the multiseason effects of ASD, particularly on the soil microbial community composition and stability, as well as on pathogens and antagonistic microorganisms. Field experiments were conducted in three adjacent greenhouses used for tomato production for at least 20 years. Three treatments were included: CK (control: no irrigation, no plastic film covering, incorporation of chicken manure), ASD (irrigation, plastic film covering, and incorporation of rice husks), and ASD+M (ASD plus incorporation of chicken manure). Results showed that (1) ASD significantly reduced the diversity of soil bacteria and fungi and improved the complexity and stability of the soil bacterial community at the end of the ASD, but the soil microbial diversity recovered to the level before the experiment after 1.5 years. (2) Compared with CK, ASD significantly increased the relative abundance of antagonistic bacteria Bacillus, Paenibacillus and Streptomyces, decreased the relative abundance of pathogens Fusarium and the quantity of nematodes and could still effectively eliminate soil pathogens after 1.5 years. (3) Chicken manure application did not increase the pathogenic microorganisms Fusarium and nematodes, but it significantly decreased the relative abundance of antagonistic bacteria. Our results highlight that ASD not only showed an inhibitory effect on soil-borne diseases after 1.5 years but also significantly increased the relative abundance of antagonistic bacteria. However, the additional incorporation of chicken manure for ASD should be avoided due to its negative effects on the abundance of antagonistic bacteria and its contribution to environmental pollution due to N leaching and increased emissions of GHG N₂O.

    Abstract Urban land‐use change has the potential to affect local to global biogeochemical carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles and associated greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes. We conducted a meta‐analysis to (1) assess the effects of urbanization‐induced land‐use conversion on soil nitrous oxide (N₂O) and methane (CH₄) fluxes, (2) quantify direct N₂O emission factors (EFd) of fertilized urban soils used, for example, as lawns or forests, and (3) identify the key drivers leading to flux changes associated with urbanization. On average, urbanization increases soil N₂O emissions by 153%, to 3.0 kg N ha⁻¹ year⁻¹, while rates of soil CH₄ uptake are reduced by 50%, to 2.0 kg C ha⁻¹ year⁻¹. The global mean annual N₂O EFd of fertilized lawns and urban forests is 1.4%, suggesting that urban soils can be regional hotspots of N₂O emissions. On a global basis, conversion of land to urban greenspaces has increased soil N₂O emission by 0.46 Tg N₂O‐N year⁻¹ and decreased soil CH₄ uptake by 0.58 Tg CH₄‐C year⁻¹. Urbanization driven changes in soil N₂O emission and CH₄ uptake are associated with changes in soil properties (bulk density, pH, total N content, and C/N ratio), increased temperature, and management practices, especially fertilizer use. Overall, our meta‐analysis shows that urbanization increases soil N₂O emissions and reduces the role of soils as a sink for atmospheric CH₄. These effects can be mitigated by avoiding soil compaction, reducing fertilization of lawns, and by restoring native ecosystems in urban landscapes.

    Abstract Application of crop residues to agricultural fields is a significant source of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N₂O) and an essential factor affecting the soil organic carbon (SOC) balance. Here we present a biogeochemical modelling study assessing the impact of crop residue management on soil C stocks and N₂O fluxes for EU-27 using available information on soils, management and climate and by testing various scenarios of residue management. Three biogeochemical models, i.e. CERES-EGC, LandscapeDNDC and LandscapeDNDC-MeTrx, were used in an ensemble approach on a grid of 0.25° × 0.25° spatial resolution for calculating EU-27 wide inventories of changes in SOC stocks and N₂O emissions due to residue management for the years 2000–2100 using different climate change projections (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5). Our results show, that climate change poses a threat to cropping systems in Europe, resulting in potential yield declines, increased N₂O emissions and loss of SOC. This highlights the need for adapting crop management to mitigate climate change impacts, e.g. by improved residue management. For a scenario with 100% residues retention and reduced tillage we calculated that in average SOC stocks may increase over 50–100 years by 19–23% under RCP8.5 and RCP4.5. However, complete retention of crop residues also resulted in an increase of soil N₂O emissions by 17–30%, so that climate benefits due to increases in SOC stocks were eventually compensated by increased N₂O emissions. The long-term EFN₂O for residue N incorporation was 1.18% and, thus slightly higher as the 1% value used by IPCC. We conclude that residue management can be an important strategy for mitigating climate change impacts on SOC stocks, though it requires as well improvements in N management for N₂O mitigation.
