PV-based DC-DC buck-boost converter for LED driver

e-Prime: Advances in Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Energy, 2023
PV-based power generation is implemented in many places due to the exhaustion of carbon-based fuels and ecological challenges. The solar panels for electric power generation along with the battery for storing the extra power will help society during the ...

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

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 984-1004, September 2026.
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

Unpacking the Farmland Capitalization Effect of Ethanol Establishment

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1185-1200, September 2026.
ABSTRACT We unpack the impact of expansions in ethanol production—as measured by proximity to newly constructed ethanol plants and capacity expansions—on farmland values using land transaction data from Kansas in combination with modern causal inference techniques.

Crop Insurance Design and On‐Farm Risk Adaptation

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1244-1257, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The United States spends billions annually on crop insurance premium subsidies, yet the prevailing distance‐based guarantee design unintentionally rewards risk‐taking by linking subsidies to yield variability. We consider a simple redesign: define guarantees in terms of probability so that coverage reflects a consistent likelihood of indemnity.

A Modified Topology of Two-Switch Buck-Boost Converter

IEEE Access, 2017
Two-switch buck-boost (TSBB) is one of the non-isolated dc-to-dc converters that can change its mode from among buck, boost, and buck-boost modes. Changing its mode is possible by controlling gate signals. This paper presents a novel modified topology of

The Cost of a Nutritious Diet in Cafeterias: Evidence From US Military Dining Facilities

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 1214-1226, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Providing nutritious meals in institutional settings with financial constraints, such as military dining facilities, is challenging. The US Department of War (DoW) and US Department of Agriculture (USDA) collaborated to modernize the Basic Daily Food Allowance (BDFA) using an optimization model that incorporates service members' consumption ...

Hemp Cultivation and Crop Diversification: Implications for Ecosystem Services in Kentucky

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the ecosystem benefits of expanding hemp cultivation by assessing its impact on crop diversity. Using scenario‐based simulations and fixed‐effect panel regressions with county‐level data in Kentucky, we find that increased hemp acreage tends to enhance crop diversity, improving water quality and bird diversity.

Voluntary Collective Action to Address Growing Agricultural Challenges in Two Countries: Experimental Insights and Commonalities

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We conducted two framed field economic experiments with citrus farmers in Florida, United States and soybean farmers in Argentina to investigate their willingness to coordinate pest and weed management efforts. Despite the contrast between these two agricultural contexts, we find striking behavioral commonalities.

Vendor Types, Attendance, Experience and Sales 2019–2021: Evidence From Five Rural Oregon Farmers Markets

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farmers markets provide a direct‐to‐consumer marketing path for farmers and small businesses, facilitating customer discovery and product refinement. This paper explores farmers markets as a business incubator, with a focus on beginning vendors and resilience to a shock, namely, COVID‐19 market restrictions.
