Biodiversity Strategies in Action—Empirical Evidence From the Food Value Chain

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is an increasing need for better understanding of firm activities that contribute to biodiversity preservation. Panwar, Ober, and Pinkse offer a valuable typology of corporate biodiversity protection strategies based on temporal and spatial dimensions, namely, the preloss (proactive) strategies of conservation and compensation, and the ...

Effects of organic manures and non-chemical weed control on wheat. II. Grain quality

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry, 2013
Deficit plant nutrients, especially nitrogen, and weed competition are the most critical problems in organic farming. This research was carried out on research plots of the Agricultural Research and Extension Center of Ataturk University Agricultural Faculty during the cropping seasons of 2006-07, 2007-08, and 2008-09 under dry farming conditions.

Eco‐Efficient in Mediterranean Olive Grove Systems: Insights From a Life Cycle Cost Analysis in Southern Portugal

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study assesses and compares the eco‐efficiency of six olive production systems in the Alentejo region, southern Portugal, employing a life cycle costing (LCC) approach directly integrated with a prior life cycle assessment (LCA). Although LCC has been increasingly applied to Mediterranean olive‐growing, empirical research in Portugal ...
