Sustainable Productivity Growth in Agriculture: The Role of Shifts in R&D Investments and Technology

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of the paper is to evaluate the long‐term prospects of sustainable productivity growth linked to plausible assumptions on public agricultural R&D investments as the key productivity driver. Second, it investigates the role of changing R&D focus from yield maximization to input saving technologies (fertilizers and pesticides). The

Why Didn't I Get a Payout? Understanding Farmer Choices, Index Insurance, and Basis Risk

open access: yesApplied 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.

SUGENO INTEGRAL AND GEOMETRIC INEQUALITIES

open access: yesInternational Journal of Uncertainty, Fuzziness and Knowledge-Based Systems, 2007
In this work, we prove a Prékopa-Leindler type inequality for the Sugeno integral. More precisely, if 0 < λ < 1 and h((1-λ)x+λy) ≥ f(x)1-λg(y)λ, ∀ x,y ∈ ℝn, where h, f and g are nonnegative μ-measurable functions on ℝn, then [Formula: see text], for any concave fuzzy measure μ. Also, we derive a general Brunn-Minkowski inequality (standard form)

How Video‐Based Information Affects Farmers' Willingness to Pay for Drone Services

open access: yesApplied 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 ...

On the weighted fractional Pólya–Szegö and Chebyshev-types integral inequalities concerning another function

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2020
The primary objective of this present paper is to establish certain new weighted fractional Pólya–Szegö and Chebyshev type integral inequalities by employing the generalized weighted fractional integral involving another function Ψ in the kernel.

Delaying the Inevitable? U.S. Screwworm Closures and Feeder Cattle Market Dynamics

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biosecurity trade restrictions are commonly framed as preventive measures, yet in many settings they function primarily as policies of delay: they impose immediate market costs while only postponing the arrival of biological risks. This paper evaluates that intertemporal tradeoff using the 2024–2025 US suspension of live cattle imports from ...
