Why Didn't I Get a Payout? Understanding Farmer Choices, Index Insurance, and Basis Risk
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Index insurance, while heralded as a potential solution to alleviate poverty and food insecurity among agricultural households, has its own set of challenges, notably basis risk. Basis risk is the discrepancy between the insurance payout and losses incurred, posing a significant deterrent to the adoption of index insurance.

Inequalities for the derivative of a polynomial
Journal of Approximation Theory, 1990 The author obtains a bound for the derivative of a polynomial which depends upon the location of all the zeroes of the polynomial \(\sum^{n}_{k=0}a_ kz^ k\) and also on the coefficients \(a_ 1,a_ 2,...,a_ n\).

How Video‐Based Information Affects Farmers' Willingness to Pay for Drone Services
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Professional service for digital technology like agricultural drones lowers transaction costs and scope thresholds for smallholders. Meanwhile, perceptual adoption barriers remain underexplored. We conduct a two‐stage choice experiment with a randomized video‐based information treatment among 384 Chinese crop farmers to measure its effect on ...

Some inequalities for graphs derivable from Hölder's inequality [PDF]
Mathematical Inequalities & Applications, 2003 Let \(G= (V,E)\) be a graph and denote its mean vertex degree by \(d_1\). For any edge \(e= (u,v)\), let \(J(e)=|N(u)\cup N(v)|\), where \(N(x)\) is the set of neighbors of \(x\), and let \(J_1={1\over m} \sum_{e\in E}J(e)\), where \(m=|E|\). Finally, for any edge \(e\), let \(t(e)\) denote the number of triangles of \(G\) that contain \(e\) and let ...

Are all meats substitutes? A basket‐and‐expenditure‐based approach
Agribusiness, EarlyView.Abstract This study examines the relationship among animal‐based meat and plant‐based meat alternatives (PBMAs) using a basket‐and‐expenditure‐based choice experiment. In particular, we examine whether animal‐based meat products are substitutes or complements with PBMAs.

Foreign labor, peer‐networking and agricultural efficiency in the Italian dairy sector
Agribusiness, EarlyView.Abstract While the presence of immigrants in the agricultural sector is widely acknowledged, the empirical evidence on its economic consequences is lacking, especially from a microeconomic perspective. Using the Farm Accountancy Data Network panel data for Italian dairy farms in the period 2008–2018, the present study investigates the relationship ...

Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper explores the convergence in on‐farm diversification strategies of agricultural holdings, between remote areas and more central ones. Using Italian farm‐level data, we explore the determinants of diversification strategies across farms.

Food Tastes in the United States: Convergence or Divergence?
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates how food consumption tastes have changed in recent decades across the United States. Using NielsenIQ data for over 77 million transactions, there is evidence of divergence in food tastes across regions from 2007 to 2016 and across households of different income, education, and race/ethnicity groups.
