Accounting for animal health in efficiency analysis: An application to Swedish dairy farms

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Poor animal health is a central concern in modern livestock production. Despite the necessity to incorporate animal health in efficiency analysis, the theoretical and empirical developments are limited on this subject. This article appropriately characterizes the axiomatic properties of animal health within a production framework.

Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.

Peroxide‐Assisted Solvate Engineering Enables Record‐High Birefringence in a Solar‐Blind Transparent Crystal

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
H2O2‐directed solvate engineering reorganizes ∞[4HP] (4‐hydroxypyridine) chains from a crossed arrangement into a nearly parallel packing through strengthened hydrogen‐bonding interactions. The resulting peroxide‐containing crystal, 4HP·H2O2, exhibits a solar‐blind UV cutoff edge (278 nm) and giant birefringence (0.609 @ 546 nm). This work demonstrates

Lost in aggregation? On the importance of local food price data for food poverty estimates

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores within‐country variations in food price dynamics and food poverty estimates by employing local market price data and national consumer price index (CPI) data. Our results show that national CPI data may be useful for approximating national trends but they fail to detect and identify spatial variations in local trends, which

Ordered Pt3Mn Intermetallic Nanoparticles Supported on Atomically Dispersed Mn–N–C as Electrocatalysts for Fuel Cells

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Ordered L12‐Pt3Mn intermetallic alloys are uniformly deposited onto atomically dispersed Mn–N–C supports. The synergistic effect between MnN4 sites and Pt3Mn elevates interfacial binding strength and dissolution barriers while favorably weakening *OH adsorption. It delivers exceptional catalytic activity and stability in fuel cells, serving as an ideal

Food insecurity and unemployment among immigrants in the United States

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Immigrants can be more vulnerable to economic downturns and, during periods of economic hardship, more likely to experience food insecurity compared to natives. This study examines the differential effect of the unemployment rate on the probability of being food insecure among diverse groups of immigrant households relative to natives in the ...

Cobalt‐Catalyzed Radical Ligand Transfer (RLT) Enables Remote‐Markovnikov Hydroamination of Alkenes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A cobalt‐catalyzed remote‐Markovnikov 1,3‐hydroamination of allyl carboxylates proceeds through MHAT, 1,2‐radical acyloxy migration (1,2‐RAM), and radical ligand transfer (RLT) from a Co‐N intermediate, providing protected amino alcohols. ABSTRACT Amino alcohols are prevalent in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and functional materials, yet ...

Taxonomic reassessment of fossil Sequoia and Protosequoia from the Upper Miocene of Central Honshu, Japan, with implications for leaf morphological variation in extant S. sempervirens

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Since its emergence in the Mesozoic, Sequoia (Cupressaceae) has been considered to possess conserved leaf morphology. However, recent studies have shown that the leaves of extant S. sempervirens become smaller, with a scale form, with increasing tree height.

Navigating Whiteness in Australia's Anti‐Racism Movement: A Duoethnographic Inquiry by Women of Colour Scholars

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper applies Critical Race Theory (CRT) to explore how whiteness operates within Australia's anti‐racism movement as a structuring force that shapes discourse, practice and policy. Despite the anti‐racism movement offering crucial spaces for resistance and reform, it remains entangled in Australia's settler‐colonial present and systemic ...

Constructing deviance in international politics

, 2015
The key to understanding the construction of deviance in international relations is to understand the interplay between international norms, international law, and the systemic hegemon. This paper argues that the hegemonic power of the international system is central in the creation of the international normative order.
