Drought impacts can be alleviated by SLM practices, such as cover crops, mulching, supplementary irrigation if surface or groundwater sources are available, or selection of drought-tolerant crop and forest species.
“Furthermore, drought impacts can be alleviated by SLM practices, such as use of cover crops and mulching, supplementary irrigation if surface or groundwater sources are available, or the selection of drought-tolerant crop and forest species (66).”
From Restoring Degraded Lands (2021) · cites this paper as [66]
The available Abstract passage links agricultural drought to rainwater losses and says mulching can improve water availability, supporting that example. It does not establish the other listed practices—cover crops, supplementary irrigation, or selection of drought-tolerant crop and forest species—and the passage ends mid-sentence. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
