“…In this study, leave area and chlorophyll contents significantly increased by FC system (Figures 1&2). Similarly, the higher plant productivity and percentage of the polysaccharide content in FC system compared with CC system could also be based on the same fact as reported by Xia et al [29]. The putative mechanism may explain the increase of the productivity reported in P.odoratum under FC system.…”

“…The significant variation in the soil chemical properties across all the cropping systems indicated the effects of agricultural practice on the quality of soil (Table 1). Some studies highlighted the impact of tillage practices on the soil chemical properties [29]. Moreover, the lowest total N and P contents were reported in all CK plots in different stages, while in FC and CC systems they increased.…”

The rotation regimes significantly alter soil properties, however, understanding the effect of crop rotation in various crops system was currently limited. The aim of this research was to reveal the variation in crop productivity, soil nutrients, enzyme activities, and bacterial community composition in vegetable-Polygonatum odoratum rotation horticulture. Thus, a 2-year field experiment was carried out under the P.odoratum-P.odoratum rotation (CC) and vegetable-P.odoratum rotation (FC) system through a randomized complete block design comprising of triplicate plots. The results showed that FC promoted most of the beneficial agronomic traits, soil nutrients, enzyme activities, and reducing root rot disease of P.odoratum. High-throughput sequencing revealed a shift in the microbial community groups with high environmental contaminants degradation ability, and a close correlation between increasing microbial diversity and major environmental factors like soil nutrients, enzyme activities under FC cropping system compared with CC. Therefore, crop rotations with vegetable- P.odoratum was recommended in cultivation.

Contamination of fodder species with elevated levels of metallic compounds holds significant epidemiological relevance, as it serves as the primary gateway for the introduction of these elements into the food chain. This investigation was directed to ascertain the ecological and health hazard of nickel contamination through various indices in food chain resulting from the dietary consumption of commonly ingested fodder crops cultivated on contaminated sites in the proximity of Sahiwal (Sargodha) and Soone Valley (Khushab), Punjab, Pakistan. Samples of water, soil, forages, ruminant’s blood, feces, and milk were collected from two sites; Soone Valley (Site_1) and Sahiwal (Site_2) in summer (Season_1) and winter (Season_2) during 2022-23, and were analyzed for nickel concentrations employing atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The mean concentrations of nickel were varied from 0.0125–0.0579 mg L− 1, 0.386–2.123 mg kg− 1, 0.00853–0.5784 mg kg− 1, 0.1085–0.5918 mg L− 1, 0.04664–0.2122 mg kg− 1, and 0.00820–0.2147 mg L− 1 in water, soil, forages, blood, feces, and milk, correspondingly. Highly significantly a negative correlation was observed among the soil vs fodder of Site_1 and Site_2 during both seasons. In animals, the highest nickel concentration was detected in blood of buffaloes at Site_1, while lowest in milk of cows at Site_2. Nickel concentrations were detected under standard permissible limits described by FAO/WHO. Except to BCF and EF, all the computed indices (PLI, Igeo, Eri, DIM, EDI, HRI, THQ, EDD, ECR, and ILTCR) were < 1, indicating low concentrations of nickel in soil and fodder, thus ensuring the safety of local ruminants upon ingestion during both seasons at both sites. Henceforth, strongly advocate the regular surveillance of heavy metal concentrations in the pasture grass surrounding contaminated locations is necessary. Furthermore, we suggest implementing precautionary measures to mitigate unintentional exposures of both livestock and, consequently, human beings to the deleterious effects of metal toxicity.

“…Wild plants contain a variety of chemicals some which interfere with the normal physiological activity of animals and human beings [4,5]. Basic metabolism of living organisms are hugely affected by these elements [6] Animals feeding on such plants experience compromised immunity, reduction in growth and reproductive potential [7]. These ailments cause loss of weight in ruminants.…”

The present study was designed to determine the anti-nutritional compounds in the wild plants of Soone valley Punjab, Pakistan. A wide range of anti-nutritional factors exists in the wild plants of this area which are consumed as forages by the ruminants. Few anti-nutritional compounds i.e. oxalate, phytate, saponins and tannins were analyzed during the course of study. Oxalate content ranged from 0.4467% to 0.6267%. The highest oxalate content was found in Chenopodium album and lowest oxalate content was available in Mentha arvensis. The content of phytate ranged from 3.8167% to 4.9767% in all wild forages. The maximum amount was observed in Buxus papillosa and minimum amount was found in Ahadota vasica. Saponins ranged from 2.2700% to 3.7833%. The percentage of tannins varies from 1.3167% to 1.6300% in all plant species. The optimum value of tannins was found in Adatoda vasica and low value of tannins was investigated in the Mentha arvensis among the investigated plant species. Overall, the maximum factors observed in Buxus papillosa and lowest in Mentha arvensis plants. The values estimated in the present study are below the mark as compared to the toxic levels. Nutritional and health issues are developed due to the large consumption of monotypic wild edible plant parts during one meal. However, anti-nutritional compounds related to respective risks are less with the use of traditional methods.
