Sustainable Productivity Growth in Agriculture: The Role of Shifts in R&D Investments and Technology

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of the paper is to evaluate the long‐term prospects of sustainable productivity growth linked to plausible assumptions on public agricultural R&D investments as the key productivity driver. Second, it investigates the role of changing R&D focus from yield maximization to input saving technologies (fertilizers and pesticides). The

Wijsman Orlicz Asymptotically Ideal -Statistical Equivalent Sequences

Journal of Function Spaces and Applications, 2013
An ideal is a family of subsets of positive integers which is closed under taking finite unions and subsets of its elements. In this paper, we introduce a new definition of asymptotically ideal -statistical equivalent sequence in Wijsman sense and ...

Equivalence of the mean square stability between the partially truncated Euler–Maruyama method and stochastic differential equations with super-linear growing coefficients

Advances in Difference Equations, 2018
For stochastic differential equations (SDEs) whose drift and diffusion coefficients can grow super-linearly, the equivalence of the asymptotic mean square stability between the underlying SDEs and the partially truncated Euler–Maruyama method is studied.

Do Tax Incentives for Farmland Leases Increase Farm Supply? Evidence From Iowa's Beginning Farmer Tax Credit

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent decades, agriculture has become increasingly concentrated through horizontal mergers and acquisitions via corporate entities, and policy makers are concerned this will be exacerbated by the aging population of farm operators. To reduce market concentration in agriculture, many states have enacted policies to entice new prospective ...

A Skills Gap Analysis of Farmer Directors of US Farmer Cooperatives

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Boards of directors are vital to firm performance and are an integral part of the decision‐making process of any business. Several studies have been conducted that observe corporate or nonprofit board characteristics, skills, and the board's connection to firm performance.

Asymptotic formulae for solutions to impulsive differential equations with piecewise constant argument of generalized type

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2019
In this article we give some asymptotic formulae for impulsive differential system with piecewise constant argument of generalized type (abbreviated IDEPCAG). These formulae are based on certain integrability conditions, by means of a Gronwall-Bellman

Regularity characterization of asymptotically probability equivalent sequences

Applied Mathematics Letters, 2009
AbstractThe notion of asymptotically equivalent sequences was presented by Pobyvanets in 1980. Using this definition, he presented Silverman–Toeplitz-type matrix conditions that ensure that a summability matrix preserves asymptotic equivalency. This work begins with an extension of Pobyvanets’ definition of convergence in probability.

Consumer Preferences for Craft Beer: The Interplay of Localness and Advertising Language

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores the influence of the language of the label, origin of production, and origin of brewing ingredients on Croatian consumers' preferences and willingness to pay for organic craft beer. Employing an online survey and a choice experiment among 223 Croatian alcohol consumers, we find that while there's a willingness to pay a ...

Consumer Acceptance of New Sustainable Food Technologies: Upcycling Technology, Biostimulants, and Artificial Intelligence

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food systems have a significant impact on environmental sustainability, underscoring the need for innovative technologies to support more sustainable agricultural methods. However, the adoption of these technologies hinges on consumer acceptance, making the analysis of consumer perceptions essential.
