In search of Montsalvatch: making sense of interviewing farmers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This paper presents a personal account of how an individualized qualitative research process attempts to understand farmers. A story of how the author interacts with and interviews farmers in order to understand how they and the narrator constructs ...

Enhancing Binding by Electron Transfer at Heterointerfaces of Biochar‐Modified Hydrogel to Improve Utilization Efficiency of Wastewater Recovered Nutrients

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Enhancing the utilization efficiency of nutrients recovered from wastewater is achieved through hydrogel modification by biochar. The strategy improves nutrient binding to hydrogels via electron transfer at heterointerfaces, thereby reducing nutrient release rate.

Problems of tomato marketing in Claveria, Northern Mindanao, Philippines : the role of farmers' associations : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Economics at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The role of farmers' association in tomato marketing cannot be underemphasised. Previous studies revealed that total production of tomatoes from the Northern Mindanao growers were distributed to agents, assembler-wholesalers, cooperatives or farmers ...

Bidirectionally Thermochromic Nanocolloid System for on‐Demand Optical Switching and Agricultural Energy Management

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A bidirectionally thermochromic nanocolloid system is developed for facility agriculture. The bidirectional and wide‐temperature response dynamically modulates light radiation, stabilizing the indoor climate, improving supplemental lighting efficiency, and accelerating plant photosynthesis.

Smaller scale New Zealand dairy farmers: long term plans and key challenges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Farmer wellbeing has been defined as “a dynamic process that gives people a sense of how their lives are evolving” (Nimpagariste & Culver, 2010). In order to support and enhance the wellbeing of farmers in New Zealand, the farmers’ goals, future plans ...

Creating Cell‐Based Hybrid Noodles for Sustainable and Nutrient‐Balanced Diets via a Serum‐Free and Animal‐Free 3D Co‐Differentiation System

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a 3D co‐culture and co‐differentiation system for porcine muscle stem cells (pMuSCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (pMSCs) on edible starch‐based scaffolds. The system simultaneously generates myotubes and adipocytes without using serum or chemical inducers.

Genetic Control of Tissue Remodeling by a Non‐Coding SNP in ITGA8 Explains Carotenoid‐Based Color Polymorphism in Marine Mollusks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, the orange‐muscle giant abalone (Haliotis gigantea) is used as a model to identify a non‐coding SNP that disrupts the interaction between ITGA8 pre‐mRNA and the splicing factor ILF2, leading to altered ITGA8 splicing. These splicing changes promote carotenoid accumulation in abalone muscle through the regulation of tissue remodeling ...

Methylation‐Induced Permanent Charge Polarization in Covalent Organic Frameworks for Visible Light‐Driven Water Decontamination and Disinfection

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A targeted in situ methylation strategy is developed to engineer cationic centers in a quinoline‐linked COF (NQ‐COFS1‐Me), creating a strong built‐in electric field, which effectively suppresses excitonic effects and promotes charge separation. The optimized material demonstrates powerful photocatalytic ROS generation for rapid bacterial inactivation ...

Agronomic, economic and ecological aspects of the papaya (Carica papaya) production in Tabasco, Mexico [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The cultivation of papaya is important in the tropic because it provides source of income to the farmer within a short time. Statistical data were obtained from farmers located in the Chontalpa, Rios and Centro-Sierra regions; the size of the survey was ...

Enhanced Bandgap Flexibility in Perovskite‐Silicon Tandem Solar Cells via Three‐Terminal Architecture

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Three‐terminal (3T) perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells overcome the current‐matching constraints of 2T designs. Using an IBC POLO silicon bottom cell, we demonstrate a 30.1% PCE, with performance largely decoupled from perovskite bandgap and enhanced resilience under realistic, time‐dependent solar spectra.
