Assessment of Energy Use and Carbon Dioxide Emissions in Tillage Systems for Cowpea Production in Derived Savanna Zone

open access: yesJurnal Keteknikan Pertanian Tropis dan Biosistem
Erratic global climate conditions endanger agricultural production's viability. Tailoring tillage practices to specific agro-ecological conditions is crucial for reducing energy use and carbon emissions.

Bi‐Functional Single‐Crystalline Active Layers for Uniform Area‐Emitting Organic Light‐Emitting Transistors

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
This work employs monolayer molecular crystals (MMCs) as bi‐functional active layers in organic light‐emitting transistors (OLETs). Thanks to the efficient horizontal hole transport and vertical hole injection, the OLETs show a high mobility of 6.64 cm2V−1s−1 and exhibit uniform area emission.

Synergistic Optimization of Cathode Composite Architecture and Stack Pressure for High‐Performance All‐Solid‐State Chloride‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Composite cathode engineering and stack pressure co‐optimization enable a high‐performance all‐solid‐state chloride‐ion battery based on a VOCl/CsSn₀.₉In₀.₀₆₇Cl3/In architecture, delivering 169 mAh g−1 with 500‐cycle durability. Electrode‐resolved impedance tracking via distribution of relaxation times revealed progressive interphase and charge ...

Exploring Differences in Precision Agriculture Adoption: New and Beginning Farmers, and Established Farmers

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper compares precision agriculture (PA) adoption between new and beginning farmers (NBFRs) and established farmers using data from a 2021 U.S. Midwest farmer survey. We focus on the human capital of two different groups of farmers in the PA adoption.

Ban Glyphosate—Does It Affect the Swedish Farmers' Willingness to Grow Cover Crops?

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The cultivation of cover crops is one of the new Eco‐scheme practices introduced in Sweden. This study examines how the design of policy attributes of these schemes influences farmers' willingness to grow cover crops on arable land, with particular focus on the potential impact of a glyphosate ban.

Crop Insurance Design and On‐Farm Risk Adaptation

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The United States spends billions annually on crop insurance premium subsidies, yet the prevailing distance‐based guarantee design unintentionally rewards risk‐taking by linking subsidies to yield variability. We consider a simple redesign: define guarantees in terms of probability so that coverage reflects a consistent likelihood of indemnity.

Drivers of Precision Agriculture Adoption in Italian Viticulture

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the main drivers influencing the adoption of two types of precision farming technologies in the viticultural sector: Decision Support Systems (DSSs) and Variable Rate Technologies (VRTs). We apply a partial proportional odds model and find that socio‐demographic characteristics are not significant determinants of adoption ...

Voluntary Collective Action to Address Growing Agricultural Challenges in Two Countries: Experimental Insights and Commonalities

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We conducted two framed field economic experiments with citrus farmers in Florida, United States and soybean farmers in Argentina to investigate their willingness to coordinate pest and weed management efforts. Despite the contrast between these two agricultural contexts, we find striking behavioral commonalities.

PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES OF SOIL AND ORGANIC CARBON CONTENT IN NO-TILLAGE AND MINIMUM TILLAGE SYSTEMS

open access: yes, 2009
Conservationist management systems of soil aim at creating propitious conditions to develop crops, allowing an efficient control of erosion and a correct maintenance of soil and water, due to erosive effects minimization. On the other hand, there are some changes on soil structure which show the importance of comparative studies that determine a better

Ex‐Ante Assessment of Farm Resilience to Institutional Shocks: A Modeling Approach

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using the agent‐based model SWISSland, we simulate farm‐level responses and interactions under two institutional shocks: tariff reductions and direct payment reductions. Using a framework we developed, we assess resilience capacities, resilience attributes, and the provision of private and public goods, following the shock.
