Does Construction of High-Standard Farmland Improve Total Factor Productivity of Grain? Evidence from China, 2000–2021

open access: yesLand
This study investigates the impact of China’s construction of high-standard farmland (CHSF) initiatives on grain productivity, focusing on total factor productivity growth of grain (TFPG) from 2000 to 2021.

DO AGRICULTURAL PRESERVATION PROGRAMS AND PREFERENTIAL PROPERTY TAX PROGRAMS AFFECT FARMLAND CONVERSION?

open access: yes
This paper examines the impact of having a preservation program on the rate of farmland loss for a 50 year period (1949-1997) in six Mid-Atlantic States: Delaware, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.

Cholesterol‐Mediated Metabolic‐mechanotransductive Crosstalk Orchestrates Castration Resistance in Prostate Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Full androgen deprivation (FAD) induces paracrine cholesterol in prostate cancer that drives the polarization of cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and subsequent elevated matrix stiffness. Matrix stiffness in turn potentiates tumor cell survival under FAD pressure via dual mechanotransductive activation of the IRE1α‐XBP1s stress‐response axis ...

Impact of land readjustment project on farmland use and structural adjustment: The case of Niigata, Japan

open access: yes
This paper examines the impact of farmland readjustment projects on farmland use and structural adjustment in Niigata, Japan. We use census data of rural communities for 1990 and 2000 to conduct pooled regression, first-difference, difference-in ...

Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.

Exploration into the Impact of High Standard Farmland Construction on Smart Agriculture

open access: yesScientific Journal of Technology
The construction of high standard farmland provides material basis and technical support for the application of smart agriculture technology and equipment, promoting the deep integration of smart agriculture technology and modern agriculture. Based on data from agricultural departments in prefecture level cities, a model was used to analyze the impact ...

The Impact of Natural Amenity on Farmland Values: A Quantile Regression Approach

open access: yes
The objective of this study is to estimate the impact of natural amenity on farmland values in the contiguous United States using a quantile regression approach and data from the 2006, 2007, and 2008 Agricultural Resource Management Surveys.

A Conserved DT2‐bZIP66‐NF‐YC4 Regulatory Module Confers Drought Tolerance in Rice and Arabidopsis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies a conserved tripartiteDT2–bZIP66–NF‐YC4 transcriptional module that enhances rice drought tolerance by activating stress‐responsive genes. This regulatory complex is functionally conserved across cereals and Arabidopsis, providing promising targets for engineering drought‐resilient crops. ABSTRACT Drought stress severely restricts

The Incidence of U.S. Agricultural Subsidies on Farmland Rental Rates

open access: yes
Each year U.S. farmers receive more subsidies than needy families receive through welfare assistance or post-secondary students receive through student aid grants. Yet, who benefits from agricultural subsidies is an open question.

Preventing biotic homogenization of farmland bird communities: The role of High Nature Value farmland

open access: yes, 2012
Aim: There is now increasing evidence that agriculture intensification acts as a major driving force of the observed decline in farmland biodiversity. However, whether agricultural intensification is affecting all types of farmland equally and/or which ...
