Human Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Algorithms increasingly manage the exchange between workers and organisations. This raises the question of whether agency can be attributed to, and psychological contracts formed with, such non‐human organisational representatives. Against this backdrop, we assemble and critically review streams of literature regarding app working and ...

Integrative Zoology, Volume 20, Issue 3, Page 465-484, May 2025.Microorganism‐released metabolites, proteins, or toxins modulate plant‐based targets to regulate physiological processes such as phytohormone and nutrition balance and stress resistance. Microbes that affect plant physiological processes regulate the visual, olfactory, and gustatory cues associated with plants to attract or repel insect herbivores and ...

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.This study evaluated the population dynamics of stubby root nematodes (SRN) in field rotations with cover crops and the subsequent effect of this rotation on sugar beet quality and quantity attributes. It was clear that the SRN densities under field conditions are influenced by multiple factors, such as the type of cover crops grown, soil disturbance ...

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.Triticale and lupin are promising candidates for sustainable intercropping in low‐input, mixed crop–livestock farming systems in the Mediterranean basin, where they can be grown as rain‐fed crops during the autumn‐winter period. A field trial conducted in Sardinia demonstrated several key findings: the slower canopy development and shorter stature of ...

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 241-251, May 2025.Abstract Spring oilseed rape is severely affected by early season herbivory of various flea beetle species. Flea beetle pest management strategies with less reliance on conventional chemical insecticides are direly needed. However, the current knowledge of flea beetle ecologies and life cycles is insufficient to design and inform such strategies ...

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 280-293, May 2025.Abstract Herbivore dung quality (physical and chemical parameters) varies between animal species and animal diet which is influenced by seasonal fluctuations and farm management practices. Subsequently, this influences the reproductive success of dung beetles.

Political conflicts and food import refusals
Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract We examine the impact of political conflicts on China's food import refusals using monthly data from 2010 to 2022. Our analysis reveals that political conflicts significantly contribute to increased food import rejections. Specifically, a one‐standard‐deviation rise in political tensions results in a .02% increase in the number of import ...

Biodiversity–food trade‐offs when agricultural land is spared from production
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Biodiversity conservation in agricultural landscapes, the world's predominant land use, could involve sparing, or setting aside, agricultural land from production, implying biodiversity–food trade‐offs. Employing bird species and agricultural data in two panel data sets, we evaluate the extent of set‐aside's trade‐offs in England between 1992 ...

Bulbs and Biopower: Managing Produce and Price in the Age of Agri‐Logistics
Antipode, EarlyView.Abstract This paper deploys the material and discursive politics of storage as a lens into agrarian change in rural India. Focusing on onions (Allium cepa), a price volatile crop and a kitchen staple, it maps out the contested meanings of and motivations for storage among growers, governments, and agri‐logistics companies. Specifically, this paper asks

Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract This paper explores the relationship between wetland ecosystems and prehistoric lakeshore settlements within the Lake Ohrid basin (a biodiversity hotspot) by considering plant food systems at Ploča Mičov Grad, North Macedonia. The mid‐fifth millennium (c.4555–4373 to 4437–4241 cal BCE) waterlogged assemblage contained a diverse spectrum of ...
