Coping With Production Risk: Effects of Sown Plant Diversity on the Attractiveness of Crop Insurance in Grasslands

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increased frequency of extreme weather events, particularly droughts, threatens grassland farming by destabilizing yields and farms' economic viability. We examine, theoretically and through numerical simulations, how sown plant diversity (natural insurance) influences the attractiveness of indemnity and drought index insurance (formal ...

Complementary or Competitive? Emerging Interactions Between Restoration and Protection in the Conservation Reserve Program

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The USDA's Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) delivers environmental benefits to society by enrolling cropland and grasslands to reestablish or safeguard long‐term vegetative cover. In recent years, the CRP has dramatically increased grassland enrollment while cropland enrollment has been in steady decline. This paper uses descriptive analysis,

The Impacts of Health and Environmental Information Nudges on Meat Choices: Where Does Goat Meat Fit?

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amidst a recent surge in US goat meat imports to meet growing demand, this study contributes to the meat demand literature by examining consumer preferences for goat meat, a relatively healthy and environmentally friendly alternative to other popular meats.

Mitigating Stress‐Induced Nonphotoactive Phase Transition Through Sodium Sulfonate Engineering for Stable and Efficient Perovskite Solar Cells

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
To address the phase stability issue of α‐FAPbI3, we employed a cation doping strategy using 1‐decanesulfonate (C10H21NaO3S). This doping releases lattice strain and suppresses the formation of the δ‐phase, enabling breakthrough performance in perovskite solar cells with a power conversion efficiency of 26.67% and excellent thermal and photostability ...

Accounting for animal health in efficiency analysis: An application to Swedish dairy farms

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Poor animal health is a central concern in modern livestock production. Despite the necessity to incorporate animal health in efficiency analysis, the theoretical and empirical developments are limited on this subject. This article appropriately characterizes the axiomatic properties of animal health within a production framework.

Interfacial Fluorinated Ion Crowding Enables Reversible Zinc Metal Batteries

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Unlike conventional single‐anion electrolytes with limited interfacial regulation, interfacial F‐ion crowding enables dense occupation of the inner Helmholtz plane through cooperative fluorinated anions, thereby generating a fluorine‐rich interface that excludes water, homogenizes Zn2+ nucleation, promotes Zn (100)‐oriented deposition, and enables ...
