Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines racial differences in farm succession planning using survey data from Tennessee farmers. While observed differences between White and Black farmers are small, decomposition and counterfactual analyses show that structural characteristics, particularly farm size, would predict higher succession planning among White farmers ...

Rules for the Enforcement of the Exception of Non-Performance in Civil Proceedings [PDF]
Ovidius University Annals: Economic Sciences Series, 2017 In civil proceedings, contract non-performance is a substantive defense means available to aparty that, by its mere invocation, can block the claim brought by the other party (which has notfulfilled its own obligation) that, in its turn, aims at obliging

Does Contract Farming Reduce Pesticide Use? Panel Data Evidence From Smallholder Farmers in China
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The inappropriate and excessive use of pesticides poses a major threat to human and ecosystem health in the agri‐food sector. While existing studies have examined the potential of contract farming to address this issue, most have focused on large‐scale farms and relied on small or transactional datasets, often leaving the role of crop‐specific

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract The rapid growth of AI data centers (AIDCs) is intensifying stress on power systems and exposing operators to volatile electricity markets. This work develops a process‐informed co‐optimization framework that integrates liquid air energy storage (LAES) with AIDC operation. Unlike black‐box storage models, the proposed formulation captures LAES

Embedded Morgan Fingerprints for More Efficient Molecular Property Predictions With Machine Learning
Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.High dimensionality of Morgan fingerprints causes overfitting and slow training. Embedded Morgan Fingerprint (eMFP) compresses this encoding while keeping key structural information intact. Tested on five regression models across three databases for HOMO–LUMO gap prediction, eMFP outperforms standard fingerprints, training faster on large, high ...

Exploiting Ferroelectric and Spintronic Dynamics for Neural Network Computation
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Ferroelectric and spintronic devices, relying on the control of polarization and magnetization, offer intrinsically fast, durable, energy‐efficient, and low‐latency building blocks for analog in‐memory computing. The hysteretic dynamics of an order parameter are leveraged to provide nonvolatile, multistate memory and nonlinear switching. Brain‐inspired
