The Cost of Self‐Sufficiency: Could New Zealand be Self‐Sufficient in Food Consumption?
Ensuring that New Zealand can sustainably meet its future food needs requires an understanding of the interaction between domestic demand trends, trade and the capacity of national production systems. Although New Zealand is a major exporter of dairy, meat, fruit and other primary products, rising food insecurity, changing dietary preferences and ...

The economic foundations of powersharing: Evidence from Africa
Abstract How—and with whom—do rulers share power? Existing research focuses on the strategic logic of powersharing. In this paper, we analyze its economic foundations. Powersharing is modeled as a subnational fiscal contract, in which rulers allocate political representation based on constituencies’ revenue potential. Empirically, we combine historical

Abstract Small, fragmented populations of critically endangered species require different conservation strategies than large, contiguous populations, as they are vulnerable to local extinction, demographic shifts, and behavior changes. Effective management necessitates regular, systematic surveys to detect early warning signs of decline and facilitate ...

Starch functions as a key hydrocolloid shaping texture and stability in the formulation engineering of sweet foods. Sugar‐starch hydration interactions control gelatinization and rheological behavior. Modified starches enhance tolerance to heat, shear, acidity, and low moisture, and starch‐hydrocolloid blends enable tailored textures and improved shelf
