Are agrochemical‐free and biodiversity‐friendly attributes substitutes or complements? Evidence from a coffee choice experiment

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract Eco‐labels inform consumers about the sustainable attributes of a product, but consumer face challenges to differentiate and select for specific attributes. Certification programs are similarly challenged to incentivize adoption of sustainable practices in product supply chains when consumer ability to differentiate sustainable attributes is ...

Quantifying the Biodegradation of Water‐Soluble Polymer Mixtures with Diffusion NMR Spectroscopy

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The fate of polymers in liquid formulations in natural environments has not been extensively researched, in part as a result of incompatible analytical techniques. We show that diffusion NMR spectroscopy can be used to quantify the simultaneous biodegradation of multiple water‐soluble polymers with limited sample preparation, measuring the molar mass ...

The impact of the Russia–Ukraine war on stock prices, profits and perceptions in the food supply chain

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract The Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 had profound consequences for the global economy. As both countries are major commodity exporters, the food value chain was also affected. This study investigates the impact of the invasion on stock prices, profitability and sentiments of agribusinesses along the food supply chain by using an ...

EDA Complex‐Driven Desaturation of Heterocyclic Carbonyl Compounds Enabled by HFIP

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
In this work, we report a novel light‐mediated desaturation strategy enabled by electron donor–acceptor complex formation. DFT and mechanistic studies reveal that the reaction proceeds via single‐electron transfer, hydrogen atom transfer, and base‐mediated deprotonation sequentially with pyridinium salt serving dually as oxidant and base, and ...
