Beyond subsistence? The role of rural cooperatives in driving smallholder commercialization in Ethiopia

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition from subsistence to market‐oriented agriculture holds the potential to boost rural economic progress and improve the well‐being of the rural poor in developing countries.

Foreign labor, peer‐networking and agricultural efficiency in the Italian dairy sector

open access: yesAgribusiness, 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 ...

Complete linear proofs of systems of linear inequalities

open access: yes12th Annual Symposium on Switching and Automata Theory (swat 1971), 1971
Rabin has investigated the difficulty of proving that a set of linear forms is simultaneously positive by the evaluation of analytic functions. In this paper we study this same question under the restriction that each analytic function itself be linear.

Food Tastes in the United States: Convergence or Divergence?

open access: yesAgribusiness, 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.
