Political shifts toward family farming and agroecology in Japan? The impact of United Nations campaigns

Cahiers Agricultures
In recent decades, several United Nations (UN) organizations have made efforts to change global agri-food policies from a model promoting corporate industrial farming to one advocating agroecological family farming.

Biomonitoring for farm families in the farm family exposure study.

Scandinavian journal of work, environment & health, 2006
The Farm Family Exposure Study was conducted to evaluate real-world pesticide exposure for farmers, spouses, and children.Eligible farm families from Minnesota and South Carolina were randomly selected from a roster of licensed private pesticide applicators.

Natural Variation of NAR5 Determines Nitrogenase Activity and the Yield in Soybean

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identified NAR5, a gene encoding a subtilisin‐like protease, that regulates nitrogenase activity in soybean nodules. Overexpressing NAR5 delayed nodule senescence, enhancing nitrogenase activity, yield, and low‐nitrogen tolerance. The elite haplotype NAR5HapI‐1 linked to superior nitrogenase activity and greater seed weight has been ...

Organic farming values in Switzerland – results of a focus group study [PDF]

, 2007
Eight focus group discussions, conducted in 2004 and 2005, about ethical values among established and recently converted organic producers (mountain and lowland area) and other stakeholders in Switzerland are summarised. The aim was to contrib-ute to the

Comparative Oligo‐FISH Mapping Illuminates Chromosomal Evolution Among Rutaceae Species Diverged Over 50 Million Years

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Oligonucleotide‐based fluorescence in situ hybridization probes were developed in the model citrus species Citrus maxima. These probes were applied to comparative karyotyping across 14 species in the Rutaceae family. This analysis revealed chromosomal evolution in lineages that diverged from Citrus nearly 52 million years ago.

THE PERSPECTIVES OF FAMILY FARMS IN POLAND

Problems of Agricultural Economics, 2019
Poland’s accession to the European Union resulted in acceleration of the transformation of agriculture which followed the path of agriculture development of economically developed countries. This transformation consists in a decrease in the number of farms, a drop in the share of agriculture in the social farm structure, but also a growth in the ...

Haplotype‐Resolved 3D Genomic Landscapes and Their Impacts on Agronomic Traits in Grapevine

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a haplotype‐resolved 3D genomic landscape of grapevine, revealing that structural variations (SVs) are closely associated with phased topologically associating domain (TAD) boundary transitions. These rearrangements coordinate with allele‐specific DNA methylation (ASM) and allele‐biased gene expression (ASE) to shape key agronomic ...

Family farming through the lens of work organization. Illustrations from Africa

Cahiers Agricultures
The paper objective is to generate knowledge about work organization patterns in family farms across Africa. A thorough understanding of farming systems is essential (since behind every practice, there is one or several workers), as well as a step toward
