Advancing Fruit Bioimpedance Monitoring With Sustainable, Soft, And Bio‐Based Electrodes Beyond ECG
Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.Electrical impedance spectroscopy enables non‐destructive fruit quality monitoring, but conventional ECG and needle electrodes compromise signal stability, fruit physiology, and sustainability. This perspective highlights the transition toward soft, biocompatible, and biodegradable electrode interfaces based on natural substrates, bio‐derived ...

Extreme Weather Events and Consumer Food Responses
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates consumer food responses to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, which affected a swath of the Southeastern U.S. in 2024. Using representative consumer survey data from six affected states, we analyze 10 distinct food responses classified into ex ante and ex post responses, and examine their associations with food insufficiency

A Pollination Toolbox for Wild Blueberry Growers
, 2014 A pollination “toolbox” was developed to facilitate workshops for wild blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium Aiton) growers. The purpose of the workshop is to provide “hands-on” education about: 1) reproductive biology of wild blueberry; 2) the major ...

Low Participation and Risk Reduction Potential of Supplemental Crop Insurance in the United States
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Federally subsidized crop insurance is a cornerstone of U.S. farm risk management, yet policies with the greatest share of participation only trigger indemnities after losses exceed 15%. Supplemental insurance was introduced to cover part of this deductible, but participation remains largely unchanged.
