Multi‐Omics Analyses Identify Candidate Genes Associated With Stage‐Specific Quality Formation in Mulching‐Treated Moso Bamboo Shoots

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Organic mulching reprograms Moso bamboo shoot development, enhancing yield and nutritional quality. This multi‐omics study reveals that coordinated metabolic, transcriptional, and post‐transcriptional regulation drives stage‐specific quality formation, offering comprehensive insights into how this agricultural practice improves crop performance and ...

Quenching Photo‐Induced Free Radicals Endows Superomniphobic Atmospheric Water Harvesting Hydrogels With UV Resistance for Durable Bifacial Photovoltaic Cooling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A hygroscopic hydrogel layer functionalized with fullerene C60 tackles heat and dust challenges in bifacial photovoltaics (PV) panels. It resists soiling and photo‐aging, maintains high transparency, absorbs water vapor from the air during the night, and delivers strong evaporative cooling power during daytime, significantly lowering PV panel ...

Influence of feeding flavouring-appetizing substances on activity of cows in an automatic milking system.

, 2009
Cow behaviour and milk production were evaluated depending on the presence or absence of flavouring and appetizing substances in the diet. Fifty-two Italian Friesian cows were blocked according to parity, DIM, milk yield and average number of previous ...

Enriched Soil Organic Carbon Underpins Long‐Term Stable Crop Productivity Across China's Croplands

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Quantifying the nonlinear relationships and causal effects of soil organic carbon (SOC) on crop stability reveals specific critical thresholds and saturation points. This partitions the national SOC spectrum into three functional phases. Integrating these spatial delineations with high‐resolution maps of marginal gains pinpoints regions with the ...

Extreme Weather Events and Consumer Food Responses

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates consumer food responses to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, which affected a swath of the Southeastern U.S. in 2024. Using representative consumer survey data from six affected states, we analyze 10 distinct food responses classified into ex ante and ex post responses, and examine their associations with food insufficiency

Temporary Programs, Lasting Questions: Ad Hoc Assistance in the U.S. Farm Safety Net

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large ad hoc assistance programs have returned to U.S. farm policy since 2017, operating alongside a more developed safety net built around federally subsidized crop insurance, Title I commodity programs, and standing disaster assistance. This paper reviews the renewed use of ad hoc assistance, documents its recent scale using USDA data, and ...

Voluntary Collective Action to Address Growing Agricultural Challenges in Two Countries: Experimental Insights and Commonalities

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We conducted two framed field economic experiments with citrus farmers in Florida, United States and soybean farmers in Argentina to investigate their willingness to coordinate pest and weed management efforts. Despite the contrast between these two agricultural contexts, we find striking behavioral commonalities.

Low Participation and Risk Reduction Potential of Supplemental Crop Insurance in the United States

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Federally subsidized crop insurance is a cornerstone of U.S. farm risk management, yet policies with the greatest share of participation only trigger indemnities after losses exceed 15%. Supplemental insurance was introduced to cover part of this deductible, but participation remains largely unchanged.

Integrating Perennial Groundcover in Corn and Soybean Acres: Impacts on U.S. Agriculture

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable agricultural practices such as cover cropping can improve soil health, water quality, and carbon sequestration, yet U.S. adoption remains limited due to economic and operational barriers. We evaluate market and economic impacts of integrating perennial groundcover into U.S.

Effectiveness of the Pasture, Rangeland, and Forage Rainfall Index (PRF‐RI) Program: Interval Selections With Uniform Premium Subsidy Rates

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines interval selection in the Pasture, Rangeland, and Forage Rainfall Index (PRF‐RI) program and evaluates how uniform premium subsidy rates affect optimal interval selections. Using South Dakota as a case study, we show a trend of increasing selection of nonproduction intervals from 2013 to 2024, raising concerns about program
