Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Climate variability is affecting the productivity, profitability, and resilience of smallholder dairy producers in developing countries. The adoption of climate‐smart (CS) dairy practices has been promoted to mitigate these negative effects. However, while interest in dairy CS practices is growing, empirical evidence on their adoption patterns

Does a Specialized Niche Market Vegetable Processor Enjoy Bargaining Power?
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Agribusiness companies may achieve competitive advantage through specialization within niche markets. One such niche is the fresh‐cut fruit and vegetable market, which has been steadily growing in Germany. This study examines whether the specialization of a German fresh‐cut producer grants it with market power within this niche market.

Ecological Studies on the Feeding of Fishes-VIII
NIPPON SUISAN GAKKAISHI, 1968 It has been found1) that the daily ration changes with frequency of feeding. From this it is natural to presume that the growth of fish changes with the frequency of feeding. In the present investigation, the relationship between the frequency of feeding and the growth is examined and the optimum frequency of feeding which produces maximum growth is ...

BeeRootBot: A Bioinspired Robotic Probe Exhibiting Apical Growth through In Situ Soil Binding
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This study introduces a novel method for consolidating subterranean exploration pathways in plant‐inspired robots by binding in‐situ soil with beeswax, a biobased material. This simultaneous advancement and wall‐lining process reduces penetration resistance, enhances exploration efficiency, enables communication and resource sharing, and promotes ...

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Female desert locusts dig underground to lay their eggs. They displace soil, rather than removing it, to create a tunnel. We analyze burrowing dynamics and 3D kinematics and design a locust‐inspired hybrid soft–stiff robot that reproduces this mechanism. The results show the natural strategy minimizes energy, whereas alternative patterns raise costs up
