How Competitive Is Myanmar's Rice Sector? A Comparison of Production Costs and Efficiency
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the cost competitiveness of rice production in Myanmar by examining production costs, cost efficiency, and the potential effect of improving cost efficiency on the country's global competitiveness. To achieve this, we conduct a comparative analysis of production costs among major rice‐producing countries and estimate the ...

Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines whether information about production methods and social norms can increase consumers' willingness to pay (WTP) a price premium for food produced using climate‐friendly farming methods. A randomized survey experiment was conducted with 1568 respondents across Denmark, Lithuania, and Spain, who were assigned to one of four ...

Food Prices and Inflation Expectations in New Zealand
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Food prices are conspicuous, and spending on food constitutes a considerable share of household expenditure. In this study, we use partially identified Bayesian structural vector autoregression models to analyze the effects of food price shocks on core inflation and 1‐ and 5‐year inflation expectations in New Zealand.

The time-energy budget of a moose
Theoretical Population Biology, 1978Abstract As the first step in developing an optimal foraging model for moose (Belovsky 1978), a time-energy budget for a moose was developed. For the summer period (late May through early September) at Isle Royale National Park, Michigan, we made various behavioral observations on feeding moose and inventoried their food resources.

Organisms are comprised of cells, which are highly organized groupings of complex molecules. To maintain the degree of organization making up life, energy of the right magnitude is necessary. One learns from thermodynamics that the natural trend of the universe is to go toward increased entropy, i.e., from a degree of order toward more disorder.

Balancing insect energy budgets
Oecologia, 1985Energy budgets are based upon the equation C=P P + R + FU, where C = Consumption, P = Production, R = Respiration, and FU= Rejecta (comprising F, egesta, and U, excreta). In studies of insect energetics where all four quantities have been measured, the completed budget rarely balances.

Energy taken in as food is apportioned in various ways. Some builds new tissue as growth or is deposited in energy storage products such as fat or glycogen. Some is used in production of young. Much of it Fuels metabolism and is expended in bodily maintenance. Finally, what is not assimilated is lost in the faeces.

Abstract Previous chapters have told us how much energy is needed for particular functions such as growth, maintaining body temperature, or running at some particular speed. Now we ask how much energy animals use in their everyday lives, and how it is divided between functions.We have seen how animals ‘ rates of energy consumption ...
