Multidisciplinary Research: Implications for Agricultural and Applied Economists [PDF]
We detail the rewards and barriers to participating in multidisciplinary research (MDR) using a 2011 survey of applied economists at U.S. universities. We compare these findings with an earlier 1993 survey to assess if rewards and barriers have changed over time. Different administrative levels of U.S.

Silicon Differently Affects Apoplastic Binding of Excess Boron in Wheat and Sunflower Leaves
Monocots and dicots differ in their boron (B) requirement, but also in their capacity to accumulate silicon (Si). Although an ameliorative effect of Si on B toxicity has been reported in various crops, differences among monocots and dicots are not clear,

Multidisciplinary Approach to Agricultural Biomass Ash Usage for Earthworks in Road Construction
Agricultural biomass has great bioenergy potential due to its availability, and it is a carbon-free energy source. During biomass incineration, biomass ash is formed, which is still considered as a waste without proper disposal and management solutions. Various biomass ash utilization options were investigated, mainly concerning engineering issues (the
