Charting the Path to Increased Oil Palm Output in Ghana Beyond Area Expansion: Technology or Managerial Capacity — Which Leads the Way?

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study sets out to investigate the prospects for raising oil palm output in sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly Ghana, without further expansion of cropland. Given global concerns about oil palm's role in deforestation and land use change, the focus is on enhancing productivity on existing farmlands.

Regional Differences in U.S. Consumer Preferences for Native Woody Shrubs With Varying Aesthetic Characteristics

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Native plants offer a variety of aesthetic (e.g., fall colour, fruit, flowers) and functional benefits (e.g., pollinator friendly, wildlife friendly, water management). How these benefits influence consumer choice and perceived value of native versus introduced plants is not well understood.

Surface metrics: an alternative to patch metrics for the quantification of landscape structure

, 2009
Modern landscape ecology is based on the patch mosaic paradigm, in which landscapes are conceptualized and analyzed as mosaics of discrete patches. While this model has been widely successful, there are many situations where it is more meaningful to ...

Cost‐Benefit Analysis of the European Union Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism in Fertilizer Trade

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM), launching 2026, will charge EU importers for embedded carbon emissions, aiming to reduce emissions but raising import costs. Shifts in demand following implementation may reduce carbon emissions, but importers will bear the cost of increased prices.

Wrinkled Strain‐Enriched High‐Entropy Metallene Enables Cross‐Site Tandem Nitrate‐to‐Ammonia

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A wrinkled 2D PdFeCoNiCuIn high‐entropy metallene overcomes the low atom utilization of high‐entropy alloys. Indium‐induced strain and p‐d hybridization enable a cross‐site tandem pathway for nitrate reduction to ammonia. It achieves 99.3% Faradaic efficiency and an NH3 yield rate of 4.55 mmol h−1 mgcat−1.
