Agro-ecological service crops with roller crimper termination enhance ground-dwelling predator communities and pest regulation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The dependence on tillage in organic agriculture has raised questions regarding soil management in organic systems. Recently, Agro-ecological Service Crops (ASC) and roller crimper (RC) technology have attracted attention in organic farming circles. ASC\nare sown before cash crops to provide benefits for agro-ecosystem services. RC permits the creation of a mulch on the soil surface consisting of ASC plant material with no need for tillage. Studies carried out in the USA, Canada and Latin America on\nRC reveal some of the potential benefits and drawbacks of this technology. However, only a few such studies have taken place in European agroecosystems. The objective of the SoilVeg project (ERA-Net CORE Organic Plus) is to study RC under European\nenvironmental and agronomic conditions. This paper shows how sowing ASC before autumn-winter cash crops and the termination strategy affect (i) the abundance of soil arthropods and (ii) the diversity of both pest and beneficial insects in Italy and Spain.\nRoller crimper, agro-ecological service crops, ground-dwelling arthropods, aphids, parasitoids, aphidophagous predators

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
