Accounting for Substitution: Improving Estimates of GHG Reductions From Cattle‐Based Product Demand Shifts

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Estimates of reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from lower demand for cattle‐based products must account for substitution effects. This study collected data through two surveys—one on ground beef and another on dairy milk—to evaluate substitution effects and potential GHG reductions.

Sustainable Productivity Growth in Agriculture: The Role of Shifts in R&D Investments and Technology

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of the paper is to evaluate the long‐term prospects of sustainable productivity growth linked to plausible assumptions on public agricultural R&D investments as the key productivity driver. Second, it investigates the role of changing R&D focus from yield maximization to input saving technologies (fertilizers and pesticides). The

Design of Primers for Evaluation of Lactic Acid Bacteria Populations in Complex Biological Samples

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are important for human health. However, the relative abundance of LAB in complex samples, such as fecal samples, is low and their presence and diversity (at the species level) is understudied.

Ban Glyphosate—Does It Affect the Swedish Farmers' Willingness to Grow Cover Crops?

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The cultivation of cover crops is one of the new Eco‐scheme practices introduced in Sweden. This study examines how the design of policy attributes of these schemes influences farmers' willingness to grow cover crops on arable land, with particular focus on the potential impact of a glyphosate ban.

Labeling Quality or Quantity? The Differential Impact of Geographical Indications on Export Performance in Turkish Agri‐Food Products

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the impact of geographical indication (GI) certification on the export performance of Turkish agri‐food products by analyzing both trade volume and unit value dynamics. Drawing on monthly data from 2000 to 2024 across 22 GI‐certified products, the research employs product‐level regressions, fixed‐effects panel models ...

Oral Processing of Dairy Products

open access: yes, 2022
The composition and colloidal structure of the various types of dairy product are relatively homogeneous because they all consist of the same main building blocks: fat globules, casein micelles and aggregates thereof. However, their textures are different as a result of variations in the concentrations of these building blocks and the interactions ...

Coping With Production Risk: Effects of Sown Plant Diversity on the Attractiveness of Crop Insurance in Grasslands

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increased frequency of extreme weather events, particularly droughts, threatens grassland farming by destabilizing yields and farms' economic viability. We examine, theoretically and through numerical simulations, how sown plant diversity (natural insurance) influences the attractiveness of indemnity and drought index insurance (formal ...

The Cost of a Nutritious Diet in Cafeterias: Evidence From US Military Dining Facilities

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Providing nutritious meals in institutional settings with financial constraints, such as military dining facilities, is challenging. The US Department of War (DoW) and US Department of Agriculture (USDA) collaborated to modernize the Basic Daily Food Allowance (BDFA) using an optimization model that incorporates service members' consumption ...
