Accounting for animal health in efficiency analysis: An application to Swedish dairy farms

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Poor animal health is a central concern in modern livestock production. Despite the necessity to incorporate animal health in efficiency analysis, the theoretical and empirical developments are limited on this subject. This article appropriately characterizes the axiomatic properties of animal health within a production framework.

Lost in aggregation? On the importance of local food price data for food poverty estimates

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores within‐country variations in food price dynamics and food poverty estimates by employing local market price data and national consumer price index (CPI) data. Our results show that national CPI data may be useful for approximating national trends but they fail to detect and identify spatial variations in local trends, which

Climate change and perennial crop production: Evidence of yield impact and adaptation in California

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Perennial crops are economically important. They contribute to food security, providing essential nutrients that are often lacking in annual crops, and provide additional environmental benefits compared with annual crops. Despite their importance, empirical research on the impacts of climate change and adaptation on perennial crops remains ...

Choice experiments on land managers' participation in environmental programs: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of estimate validity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Discrete choice experiments are increasingly being used to estimate land managers' willingness to accept participation in incentive‐based environmental programs. This is a specific application of discrete choice experiments: the estimation of willingness to accept for a private good (program participation) where respondents have to make trade ...

Preferential trading in agriculture: New insights from a structural gravity analysis and machine learning

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preferential trade agreements (PTAs) contain various non‐tariff provisions, yet identifying their trade effects remains challenging because these commitments are high‐dimensional and strongly correlated within agreements. We estimated a theory‐consistent structural gravity model with domestic flows for 26 agricultural subsectors over 1988–2017

Rewriting Tumor Immunity With Bacterial Membrane Vesicles: A Versatile and Potent Therapeutic Strategy

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Bacterial membrane vesicles (BMVs) emerge as promising platforms for cancer immunotherapy owing to their intrinsic adjuvant properties and tunable cargo delivery capabilities. Their ability to modulate the tumor microenvironment, enhance antitumor immune responses, and support personalized therapeutic strategies highlights their growing potential as ...

Minute‐Scale Repeated Metabolic Probing of Living Cells Enabled by Rapid Parahydrogen‐Based Hyperpolarization

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Rapid parahydrogen hyperpolarization combined with simple dilution enables biocompatible delivery of hyperpolarized pyruvate to immobilized living cells within ≈1 min. Repeated substrate injections reveal frequency‐dependent metabolic dynamics, introducing a new temporal dimension for hyperpolarized NMR studies of cellular metabolism and enabling rapid
