Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.We simultaneously analysed insecticide resistance mutations in VGSC and AChE using NGS and hybridization probe capture in houseflies collected from livestock facilities for the first time. Resistance mutations in both VGSC and AChE were detected in most wild populations, suggesting widespread distribution of resistance genes.

ECONOMIC IMPACTS OF EPA'S MANURE APPLICATION REGULATIONS ON DAIRY FARMS IN THE SOUTHWEST REGION [PDF]
We estimate that EPA's CAFO final rule on manure application would have different impacts on dairy farms in the region, assuming that the farms would maintain the same herd size and same crop production practices.

Exploring Spatial Patterns in Inefficiency Using a Stationary Gaussian Random Field
Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article presents a semiparametric stochastic frontier model that accounts for unobserved spatial heterogeneity in inefficiency by incorporating a stationary Gaussian random field based on geographic coordinates into the inefficiency scaling function. This approach captures spatial patterns in inefficiency at a fine scale.

Animal Segregation: The Biopolitics of Concentrated Pig Farming
Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, EarlyView.Abstract This paper explores the possibility to think through the concept of animal segregation to understand the more‐than‐human geographies of livestock animals. By redirecting the analytical tools for studying the spatial separation of humans to the segregation of animals, this paper contributes to understanding the geographical processes of ...

MANURE BMP ADOPTION AMONG NORTH DAKOTA ANIMAL FEED OPERATIONS [PDF]
Regulations governing animal waste storage are primarily a state-level issue. Protecting water resources from animal waste contamination will depend upon how effective state-level animal waste regulations are in encouraging livestock producers to handle ...

Drivers of Change: Experts' Perceptions of European Agri‐Food and Livestock Farming Systems
FUTURES &FORESIGHT SCIENCE, Volume 8, Issue 3, December 2026.ABSTRACT Transforming agri‑food and livestock farming systems to increase their sustainability and climate resilience requires a clear understanding of what drives change and how driving forces are related. This study increases systems knowledge by identifying driving forces and actors that shape European agri‐food and livestock farming systems ...

Why Some Critical Junctures Lead Nowhere: Exploring Dynamic and Static Policy Paths
Governance, Volume 39, Issue 4, December 2026.ABSTRACT Some critical junctures fail to cause significant change in practice. Inspired by historical institutionalism, this article develops the concept of dynamic and static policy paths to explain why some critical junctures do not lead to change, while others do.

The Economics of Manure Utilization: Model and Application [PDF]
A model of manure utilization is developed and applied to four types of transportable manure. Model results highlight important response differences among manure types and generally illustrate the diseconomies of manure production. For example, as manure

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 5, Page 1025-1035, October 2026.Dung beetles suppressed cumulative methane flux from cattle dung by 85% and reduced total greenhouse gas emissions by 18%. Beetle activity accelerated initial CO2 release but did not alter total cumulative flux. N2O and NH3 fluxes were transient and not consistently driven by beetle presence.
