Forage Yield and Quality of Dryland Grasses and Legumes

, 1984
A 7-year study was conducted on forage yield, digestibility, and crude protein of 7 species of grass, 3 cultivars of alfalfa, and cicer milkvetch at Sidney, Mont., from 1975 through 1981. Forage quality was inversely proportional with forage yield. Crude

Livelihood Diversification as an Adaptation Strategy to Climate Change and Household Food Security of Livestock Holders in Pakistan

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rural farm households continue to face significant risks from climate change, resulting in many of them diversifying their livelihood sources into other income‐generating activities to increase their incomes and improve food and nutrition security. In this study, we examine the drivers and impact of farm households' participation in livelihood

Forage yield and quality in pigeonpea germplasm lines [PDF]

, 2007
The forage yield and quality traits and their heritability estimates over 2003 and 2004 in India were observed. Two hundred pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) germplasm lines were planted at ICRISAT, Patancheru, Andhra Pradesh, India during kharif (rainy) season ...

Churned on the Farm, Valued by Customers: Southeast U.S. Consumers' Willingness‐to‐Pay for Farmstead Ice Cream

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Consumer demand for value‐added dairy products has grown substantially, yet consumer preferences for origin information (including farmstead) on ice cream remain underexplored. We used a stated preferences choice experiment to elicit consumers' willingness‐to‐pay (WTP) for ice cream across nine states in the Southeastern U.S.

Explaining the Origin of Negative Poisson's Ratio in Amorphous Networks With Machine Learning

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This review summarizes how machine learning (ML) breaks the “vicious cycle” in designing auxetic amorphous networks. By transitioning from traditional “black‐box” optimization to an interpretable “AI‐Physics” closed‐loop paradigm, ML is shown to not only discover highly optimized structures—such as all‐convex polygon networks—but also unveil hidden ...
