Vermicomposting as a Sustainable Detoxification Strategy for Pesticide-Contaminated Agricultural Wastes: Mechanisms and Earthworm Physiological Responses

Chittimothu Suresh Babu, N Pranathi Dass, Putturu Venkata Jyothsna & SK. Yasmeen · Asian Journal of Research in Crop Science · 2026

Pesticide-contaminated agricultural residues represent an important waste-management concern because residues may persist in crop biomass after harvest and enter soil, water, or atmospheric pathways through unsuitable disposal practices. This review examines vermicomposting as a...

Agro-Industrial Wastewater as a Resource for Algal Biomass Production: Nutrient Recovery, Strain Selection and Techno-economic Barriers

Chittimothu Suresh Babu, Vooyaka Bhanu Prakash, Bichala Sreeshanth & Gedela Bhanu Priya · Annual Research & Review in Biology · 2026

The global agro-industrial sector generates billions of cubic metres of nutrient-rich effluents annually, constituting both a significant environmental liability and an underexploited resource for biological valorisation. Microalgal cultivation in agro-industrial wastewaters offe...

Valorisation of Crop Residue Ash as a Soil Amendment and Construction Material: Mechanisms, Limitations and Future Pathways

Chittimothu Suresh Babu, B. Chaitanya Naik, Jaddu Uma & K. Jaswanth · Asian Journal of Advances in Agricultural Research · 2026

Global agricultural systems generate substantial quantities of crop residues, and a considerable fraction is still managed through open-field burning, with associated greenhouse-gas emissions, particulate release and losses of soil organic matter. Crop residue ash (CRA), produced...
