Effects of introduced macadamia on soil organic carbon and water stocks in subtropical agroforestry systems of southwestern China

Macadamia (Macadamia integrifolia)-based agroforestry systems, widely adopted in Yunnan Province, China since 1981, are critical for soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration. However, their effects on SOC stocks and coupling mechanisms with soil water dynamics remains poorly understood. This study quantified changes in SOC and soil water stocks following the conversion from primary forest to macadamia […]

Quality Damage and Control Measures of Macadamia Nuts During Primary Processing

In Yunnan, the main production area in China, about 90% of the macadamia nut products are sawn nut in shell. Macadamia nut production is based on primary processing; however, product quality is highly susceptible to damage during this stage, causing significant economic losses to both growers and processors. Therefore, identifying damage and proposing control measures […]
