Citizens, consumers and farm animal welfare: A meta-analysis of willingness-to-pay studies
, 2017 The sustainable intensification of animal production systems is increasing as a consequence of increased demand for foods originating from animals. Production diseases are particularly endemic in intensive production systems, and can negatively impact ...

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 ...

Defining and Measuring Unmet Labour Demand [PDF]
This paper first clarifies the distinction between vacancies as ‘job openings’ (recruitment processes), which are measured in traditional vacancy statistics, and vacancies as ‘unfilled jobs’ (unmet labour demand).

Machine‐Learning Microfluidic Minute‐Scale Microorganism Metrics Monitoring(M6)
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT On‐site monitoring of microorganisms remains challenging because of low concentrations, strong background interference, and dynamic aerosol diffusion, particularly for aerosol‐transmitted pathogens. Here, we report a rapid detection platform that integrates a Puri‐focusing microfluidic chip, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and ...

Farm production, market access and dietary diversity in Malawi
Public Health Nutrition, 2016 Objective The association between farm production diversity and dietary diversity in rural smallholder households was recently analysed. Most existing studies build on household-level dietary diversity indicators calculated from 7d food consumption ...
