Does agroecosystem management mitigate historic climate impacts on dryland winter wheat yields?

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 114, Issue 6, Page 3515-3530, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Global studies that quantify climate effects on crop yields using top‐down spatial frameworks are invaluable for assessing generalized effects on world food supplies, yet do not contain the resolution necessary to identify local mediating effects of management.

Toward a differentiated understanding of the effect of Nutri‐Score nutrition labeling on healthier food choices

open access: yesAgribusiness, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 28-50, Winter 2023., 2023
