THE ANALOG CITY: Maintaining Everyday Life Through Repair and Jugaad

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban scholarship consistently discusses improvisation and heterogeneity as central to urban life in the global South. In this article, I bring together scholarship on urban improvisation and the digital world of smart cities to understand the city as analog.

The Non‐Understandable World of Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Therapist's Implicit Understanding and Subsequent Deepened Understanding

Journal of Analytical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper examines the concept of non‐understandable in psychotherapy, based on the author's own play therapy with a boy with mild ASD (autism spectrum disorder). ASD is considered to belong to an area beyond comprehension, as psychotherapy is often deemed ineffective for it.

Is Technological Heterogeneity the Key to Sustainable Coffee Production Efficiency?: A Latent Class Frontier Analysis in the Traditional Coffee Region of Colombia

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coffee producers deal with uncertainty due to high volatility in coffee prices. To navigate these challenges, producers must balance the tradeoff between higher yield and better quality utilising heterogeneous technologies, such as intensive production methods and environmental management practices.

Surveying the Farmer Survey: A Synthesis of Research Practices in the Netherlands, Slovenia and Sweden

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research based on farmer surveys is a cornerstone of agricultural economics. Farmer surveys provide unique insights into behavioural variables—such as values, motivations, attitudes, behaviours, and preferences—that are unavailable in secondary datasets.

Can Extensive Grassland Management Pay Off for Farmers Facing Drought Risks? A Cumulative Prospect Theory‐Based Approach

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grasslands in Central Europe are increasingly affected by droughts, leading to lower hay yields and reduced profits for dairy farmers. The insurance hypothesis suggests that extensively managed, species‐rich grassland is more drought resistant than intensively managed grassland.

Farmers' Beliefs About Climate Action: Evidence From an Information Experiment

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farmers' adoption of climate change mitigation practices is crucial for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from food production. One major source of these emissions is chemical fertilizer application. Introducing clover into grassland can mitigate emissions by reducing the need for chemical fertilizers.

How Changing Food Preferences and Technology Are Transforming Food Markets

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The foods that consumers purchase and how they purchase food are changing over time. In this article, we discuss how health prioritization and environmental concerns, combined with new technologies, are changing consumers' food preferences and retail choices.

Response of Fecal Bacteria and Fungi to Tannin‐Rich Diets in Sika Deer (Cervus nippon): Evidence from Both Feeding Experiments and Field Investigations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Feeding with tannin‐rich diets altered the fecal microbial composition and increased the relative abundance of tannin‐degrading microbes. We hypothesize that fecal bacteria and fungi may play important roles in helping herbivores adapt to tannin‐rich diets but respond to different tannin concentrations varies.

Farm‐scale Natural Capital Accounting: Unlocking the potential of natural capital to support sustainable agriculture

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract The demand for information about property‐scale natural capital is growing rapidly as producers and supply chains respond to opportunities and pressures to report environmental performance information. Natural Capital Accounting offers promise but agreed methods for farm‐scale accounts are currently lacking.
