Glyphosate and AMPA concentrations in wind-blown material under field conditions [PDF]
, 2018 Agricultural intensification in fragile arid and semiarid environments has led to an increase in soil degradation, mainly through wind erosion. Argentina is an agricultural and cattle-farming country, which has increased its productivity in the last few ...

Herbicide Phytotoxicity and Resistance to Herbicides in Legume Plants [PDF]
, 2012 Active substances in herbicides, just like in other pesticides, are chemical compounds synthesized in order to kill organisms which are harmful for cultivated plants. Therefore, they are toxins introduced on purpose by man into the environment. From the perspective of environmental protection, it is very significant that herbicides are most often ...

Effect of risk and incentives on contracts: The case of farm operators in Iowa
Agribusiness, EarlyView.Abstract Longitudinal data on Iowa landowner–operator contracts are used to examine how the mean, variance, and skewness of expected farmland returns affected contract terms from 2008 to 2019. To control for unobserved operator risk preferences and ability as a fixed effect, the sample includes operators with multiple contracts.

Herbicide impacts on exotic grasses and a population of the critically endangered herb "Calystegia affinis" (Convolvulaceae) on Lord Howe Island [PDF]
, 2013 Introduced perennial grasses are capable of altering the habitat of native species, causing reductions in population size and vigour, and potentially affecting life-history processes such as survival, pollination and seedling recruitment. We examined the

Herbicidal pollution—pollen damage due to herbicides
Environmental Pollution (1970), 1977 Abstract The maximisation of agricultural yields has been related to the utilisation of pesticides and, as a result, herbicidal control of weeds has gathered momentum. In spite of the greater selectivity and minimum damage aimed at, herbicides have now been proved to act as ecological narcotics.

Product differentiation in the fruit industry: Lessons from trademarked apples
Agribusiness, EarlyView.Abstract We derive price premiums for patented or trademarked apple varieties, also known as “club apples,” compared to open‐variety apples. We use an expansive retail scanner dataset, along with unique data on apple taste characteristics, to estimate monthly club apple premiums for 2008–2018.

Weed Resistance to Herbicides [PDF]
, 2017 Weed resistance is more and more becoming a problem under intense agricultural conditions. Recognizing this problem has high practical importance not only for detection of resistant weeds but also for application of measures for prevention of development of resistance or control of already resistant weed populations.
