Integrating Perennial Groundcover in Corn and Soybean Acres: Impacts on U.S. Agriculture
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sustainable agricultural practices such as cover cropping can improve soil health, water quality, and carbon sequestration, yet U.S. adoption remains limited due to economic and operational barriers. We evaluate market and economic impacts of integrating perennial groundcover into U.S.

Assessing Government Subsidies for Reducing Pesticide Use: A Meta‐Analysis
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the efforts being made by governments to reduce pesticide use, subsidies are an important instrument to encourage farmers to adopt more sustainable practices. Yet, their effectiveness remains uncertain due to diverse designs and contexts.

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines interval selection in the Pasture, Rangeland, and Forage Rainfall Index (PRF‐RI) program and evaluates how uniform premium subsidy rates affect optimal interval selections. Using South Dakota as a case study, we show a trend of increasing selection of nonproduction intervals from 2013 to 2024, raising concerns about program
