The effects of extreme weather on rural transportation infrastructure and crop prices along the Lower Mississippi River

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Extreme weather events are worsening the fragile rural infrastructure in the United States, impacting trade flows of agricultural products. The Mississippi River, vital for transporting agricultural commodities, reached historic lows during the 2022 and 2023 fall harvests, increasing transportation costs and lowering crop prices.

Incorporating economic multipliers in a bid adjustment algorithm for public food procurement decision making

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract We present an adjusted bid price mechanism that incorporates economic multiplier effects in public food procurement decision making. Under Input–Output model assumptions, the algorithm estimates enhanced tax revenues to state governments through multiplier effects associated with in‐state supplier purchasing.

Development of cisgenic apples with durable resistance to apple scab [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Most of the apple (Malus × domestica) growers are facing serious disease problems with apple scab which is caused by the fungus Venturia inaequalis. Developing a resistant variety in apple through classical breeding is very slow and inefficient.

Enhancing Plastic Decomposition in Mealworms (Tenebrio molitor): The Role of Nutritional Amino Acids and Water

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
The decomposition of single‐use plastics by selected insects is often sustained or enhanced through the addition of natural supplements or feeds. Herein, the rationale behind these choices is demonstrated by examining the effects of selected amino acids and water as enhancers in the biodegradation of polystyrene by mealworms.

Mexican consumers' attitudes toward irradiated and imported apples

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract This study centers on analyzing Mexican consumers' willingness to pay (WTP) for imported US fresh apples subjected to irradiation, contrasting it with the more prevalent postharvest chemical treatments. We collect data using a survey tool in Qualtrics designed to explore the impact of information dissemination through two distinct narrative ...
