A fast-running physics-based wake model for a semi-infinite wind farm
This paper presents a new generation of fast-running physics-based models to predict the wake of a semi-infinite wind farm, extending infinitely in the lateral direction but with finite size in the streamwise direction.

Unpacking the Farmland Capitalization Effect of Ethanol Establishment
ABSTRACT We unpack the impact of expansions in ethanol production—as measured by proximity to newly constructed ethanol plants and capacity expansions—on farmland values using land transaction data from Kansas in combination with modern causal inference techniques.

Simultaneous Electrochemical Detection of Cu2+ and Zn2+ in Pig Farm Wastewater
In recent years, the rapid development of pig farming has led to a large quantity of heavy metal-polluted wastewater. Thus, it was desirable to develop a simple heavy metal detection method for fast monitoring of the wastewater from the pig farms ...

On the Economics of US Agricultural Policy
ABSTRACT This paper presents an economic analysis of US agricultural policy, building on a modified version of Gardner's efficient redistribution. We argue that agricultural policy is motivated as an attempt to implement an efficient redistribution scheme that redistributes income toward farmers who, as a group, have been adversely affected by ...

Building a Static Farm Level Spatial Microsimulation Model: Statistically Matching the Irish National Farm Survey to the Irish Census of Agriculture [PDF]
This paper looks at the statistical matching technique used to match the Irish Census of Agriculture to the Irish National Farm Survey (NFS) to produce a farm level static spatial microsimulation model of Irish agriculture. The match produces a spatially

Paratuberculosis in different breeds of sheep: A retrospective study of cases
Spontaneous ovine paratuberculosis in an organized farm was diagnosed based on histopathological lesions, demonstration of acid-fast bacilli in different visceral organs, and detection of antibody levels against Mycobacterium paratuberculosis by agar gel

Plant Molecular Farming: Fast, Scalable, Cheap, Sustainable
The Editorial on the Research TopicEngineering the Plant Factory for the Production of Biologics and Small-Molecule MedicinesThe transfer of genes into plants, that was achieved in the early 80's, paved the way for the exploitation of the potential of plant genetic engineering, to add novel agronomic traits and/or to design plants as factories for high

Chinese Trade Competition and Rural Mexican Migration
ABSTRACT China's accession to the World Trade Organization in 2001 reshaped global trade, reducing U.S. demand for Mexican manufactured goods and weakening Mexico's manufacturing employment. This study estimates how this trade‐induced decline affected migration and employment decisions among rural Mexicans.

Fuzzy chance constraints model based power reference optimisation of wind farm in system restoration
During power system restoration following a blackout, it is necessary to quickly restore as many generator units as possible to accelerate the speed of the system restoration. Considering that wind power of large capacity has the advantages of fast start-
