Worldwide, most illicit crops are cultivated by smallholders. In many frontier regions, the elevated price of illicit crops offers economic promise for cultivators displaced from other(licit) smallholder activities; when smallholders are pushed onto poor quality land or have been otherwise criminalized, the most viable livelihood option(in some regions the only option) may be to cultivate relatively lucrative and hardy illicit crops that can grow quickly and in a wide range of conditions. 2, record 1, English, - illicit%20crop

In the wake of a nuclear attack, even of moderate scope, there would be pronounced biospheric impacts for Britain. The climatic conditions, known collectively as "nuclear winter", would serve to kill off much vegetation and to significantly damage surviving vegetation. The most widespread damage would more likely be caused through "chill injury" than through "freeze injury". Many agricultural crops would die in the fields, or fail to produce grain, fruits and tubers in any but meagre amounts. The main environmental insults, viz. reduced temperature and light, would be aggravated, often in synergistic fashion, through additional assaults, e. g. irregular rainfall patterns, powerful winds, chemical pollutants and(eventually) UV-B radiation. 2, record 11, English, - nuclear%20winter

The intensity and number of floods determine the size of the area that can be sown. The large fluctuations from year to year make such farming a very precarious source of livelihood; in certain years, the floods may be rare or short-lived, and the soil will not be moistened to a depth that is sufficient to justify sowing. 1, record 13, English, - flood%2Dwater%20farming

(i) Phosphorus that has been changed to a less soluble form as a result of reaction with the soil; moderately unavailable phosphorus. Specifically, it is the quantity of soluble phosphorus compounds that, when added to soil, becomes chemically or biologically attached to the solid phase of soil and cannot be recovered by extracting the soil with a specified extractant under specified conditions. Some of these extractants are water, carbonated water, and dilute solutions of strong mineral acids with or without fluoride or other exchangeable anion.(ii) Applied phosphorus that is not absorbed by plants during the first cropping year.(iii) Soluble phosphorus that has become attached to the solid phase of the soil in forms highly unavailable to crops; unavailable phosphorus; or phosphorus in other than readily or moderately available forms. 1, record 18, English, - fixed%20phosphorus

Certains de ces solvants sont l'eau carbonatée et des solutions diluées d'acides minéraux forts contenant ou non du fluorure ou d'autres anions échangeables.
