Diversity, Host Attachment Preferences and Role of Tick Rhipicephalus microplus in the Transmission of Bartonella spp. and Rickettsia spp. in Cattle From Southern Benin

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Ticks infesting cattle in Southern Benin were investigated for diversity, attachment preferences and zoonotic bacteria. Among 2210 ticks collected from 540 cattle, Rhipicephalus microplus predominated (79.6%). Ticks mainly attached to ears, axillae and trunk. PCR detection revealed Bartonella spp. and Rickettsia spp., highlighting veterinary and public

Farmers' pro‐social motivations and willingness‐to‐accept in markets with public goods

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 108, Issue 3, Page 799-828, May 2026.
Abstract To explain how some farmers' decisions may diverge from profit‐maximization, we incorporate proactive social preferences for public goods in an expected utility framework, in addition to reactive risk preferences to uncertainty. We offer empirical evidence that proactive preferences influence farmers' decisions alongside reactive preferences ...
