Trade‐offs across life history stages and social association types shape winter communal roosting in a long‐lived raptor

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study demonstrates how life history trade‐offs and pair bonds influence winter roosting in red kites. Analysing long‐term GPS data from 216 individuals, we reveal marked behavioural plasticity in communal roosting: young, non‐breeding males are most likely to join communal roosts, whereas breeding pairs predominantly roost together near their ...

The Consequences of Soil Organic Carbon for Crop Yield, Farm Productivity and Profit

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crop choices affect soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks, allowing farmers to manipulate the amount of carbon sequestered in the soil over time. This paper examines the private and public benefits of crop rotations that sequester additional carbon across the province of Saskatchewan, Canada using a novel field‐level dataset from the Saskatchewan ...

The Price Gap in Agriculture‐Based Greenhouse Gas Offset Markets

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Today, there is a global effort to reduce greenhouse gas net emissions (GHGNE). For economic well‐being, it is important to identify low‐cost means of net emission offsets. Agriculture and forestry have received considerable attention as a means of supplying emissions offsets, as they contribute nearly 20% of global emissions.

Gender Differences in Risk Preferences: Implications for Adoption of Climate Smart Agricultural Technologies

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The gender gap in risk preferences in rural farm households, with female farmers commonly viewed as more risk‐averse than their male counterparts, may have profound implications for addressing the gendered impacts of climate change. Understanding these gender differences and their drivers is essential for designing policies that enhance ...
