Market regulation and productivity: The case of the Canadian Wheat Board

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Changes to regulatory environments influence firm‐level incentives, which can move the productivity frontier or reposition firms within an existing frontier. Estimating causal effects of policy changes requires a credible counterfactual for productivity in the absence of policy change.

DYNAMIC PRICING OF GENETICALLY MODIFIED CROP TRAITS [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper considers the time path of prices for crop traits such as herbicide resistance, specifically whether they conform to Coase's conjecture that monopoly prices can't be sustained on durables.

Herbicide resistances in weeds

open access: yes, 1990
L’usage inconsidéré des herbicides pour un désherbage systématique des grandes cultures a conduit à l’apparition de mauvaises herbes résistantes. Huit familles d’herbicides sont concernées par ce problème. Plus de 60 espèces montrent des populations résistantes qui sont réparties dans tous les pays industrialisés.

Agrarian counterpoint

open access: yesAmerican Ethnologist, EarlyView.
Abstract In Colombia's northeastern borderlands, agrarian economies shape how disease risk and stigma are understood and managed. As shown in ethnographic fieldwork in and around the Catatumbo region, cutaneous leishmaniasis—a sandfly‐transmitted disease that produces chronic skin lesions—appears in two radically different guises across adjacent ...

What can lithics tell us about food production during the transition to farming? Exploring harvesting practices and cultural changes during the neolithic in Southwest Asia: a view from Qminas (north‐western Syria)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the continuity and change in harvesting practices between the Late Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B (LPPNB) and the Early Pottery Neolithic at Qminas, north‐western Levant, through a traceological analysis of flint sickles. By combining qualitative traceological analysis with quantitative functional approaches, we demonstrate that ...
