Dietary shifts in agrarian households: Population‐based evidence from off‐farm work in Ghana

open access: yesJournal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the association between income from off‐farm work and nutritional outcomes in Ghanaian agrarian households, analyzing data from the Ghana Living Standards Surveys of 2005/06, 2012/13, and 2016/17. Findings from 24,550 observations reveal that off‐farm work is associated with increased intake of protein, fat, essential ...

A short history of the phosphorus index and Andrew Sharpley's contributions from inception through development and implementation

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract In the 1980s, growing recognition of agricultural phosphorus (P) sources to surface water eutrophication led to scrutiny of animal feeding operations. In 1990, the USDA‐Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) invited prominent scientists to find a solution. It was at an initial meeting that Dr. Andrew Sharpley suggested that P assessment

The importance of consensus science to managing phosphorus in the environment: SERA‐17 and the legacy of Andrew Sharpley

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Phosphorus (P) loss from agricultural systems to surface waters, and ultimately, eutrophication, presents a wicked problem requiring transdisciplinary solutions. The mission of SERA‐17 (Southern Extension and Research Advisory Information Exchange Group‐17) has been to address this problem by developing “Innovative Solutions to Minimize ...

Balancing agriculture and environment: Andrew Sharpley's nutrient, soil, and water management legacy

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Managing agricultural phosphorus (P) to balance food security and water quality priorities is a massive challenge fraught with uncertainty and competing interests. Throughout his career, Andrew Sharpley addressed this challenge by building our understanding of the fundamental principles and processes that control P behavior in agricultural ...

Nutritonal characterization of foods fortified with micronutrients in the Spanish market. The BADALI project

open access: yesApplied Food Research
Although fortified foods may reduce micronutrient deficiencies, they may contain nutrients negatively associated to health. The aim of this work is to provide a comprehensive study of micronutrient fortified processed foods available in Spain and to ...

A review of the development and implementation of the critical source area concept: A reflection of Andrew Sharpley's role in improving water quality

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Critical source areas (CSAs) are small areas of a field, farm, or catchment that account for most contaminant loss by having both a high contaminant availability and transport potential. Most work on CSAs has focused on phosphorus (P), largely through the work in the 1990s initiated by Dr.

Phosphorus lability across diverse agricultural contexts with legacy sources

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract The buffering of phosphorus (P) in the landscape delays management outcomes for water quality. If stored in labile form (readily exchangeable and bioavailable), P may readily pollute waters. We studied labile P and its intensity for >600 soils and sediments across seven study locations in the United States. Stocks of labile P were large enough
