Is Technological Heterogeneity the Key to Sustainable Coffee Production Efficiency?: A Latent Class Frontier Analysis in the Traditional Coffee Region of Colombia

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coffee producers deal with uncertainty due to high volatility in coffee prices. To navigate these challenges, producers must balance the tradeoff between higher yield and better quality utilising heterogeneous technologies, such as intensive production methods and environmental management practices.

Representaciones de los Muertos en Los Andes

open access: yesRepresentaciones de los Muertos en Los Andes
En la época prehispánica, existían los costumbres del culto a las momias y la gente trataba las momias como vivos en Los Andes. Desde siglo XVI, los españoles colonizaron allí y empezaron a evangelizar y también desplegaron la extirpación de la idolatría.

Including AKIS in the 2023 CAP Strategic Plans: What Difference has it Made? Intégration des systèmes de connaissances et d’innovation agricoles (SCIA) dans les plans stratégiques de la PAC pour 2023 : Qu’est‐ce que ça a changé ? Die Einbeziehung von AKIS in die strategischen Pläne der GAP für 2023: Was hat sich dadurch verändert?

open access: yesEuroChoices, EarlyView.
Summary In 2021, for the first time, the EU Member States were required to include Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems (AKIS) in their Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) Strategic Plans (2023–2027). We present the findings of empirical research into how this requirement has influenced the development of national AKIS.

Body Size Regulates Niche Overlap Asymmetry in the Subtropical Andes Rain Shadow: Isotopic Paleoecology of Oligocene South American Ungulates

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first isotopic analysis of Oligocene mammals from Quebrada Fiera, Mendoza, Argentina, filling a major gap in South American paleontology. It reveals a latitudinal gradient in aridity due to the Andean rain shadow and highlights the role of (semi)permanent water bodies in sustaining diverse herbivore communities. Additionally, it

Cenozoic Tectonics Ignite Mitochondrial Codon Innovations Propelling Canid Body Size Evolution and Transcontinental Radiations

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We decode mitochondrial genomes across all extant canids, revealing lineage‐specific codon optimization driven by altitude, predation, and body size. A tripartite framework integrates geological events, metabolic constraints, and adaptive radiation to explain carnivore evolution.

Managing the Threat of Subsidized Predators for a Threatened Shorebird

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Subsidized predators—native predators that have become more common due to human activities—challenge the persistence of many at‐risk prey species and require creative solutions beyond lethal predator control. In an 8‐year study, we placed small wire cages over western snowy plover nests that allow passage of plovers, but not their predators, and ...
