Pesticide MRLs as Trade Barriers: Evidence From Vietnam's Coffee and Rice Exporters

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As tariffs have declined globally through bilateral and regional trade agreements, food safety standards have emerged as significant determinants of agricultural trade flows. This study examines the impact of maximum residue limits (MRLs) for five pesticides—Azoxystrobin, Chlorpyrifos, Chlorantraniliprole, Clothianidin, and Cyhalothrin—on ...

Churned on the Farm, Valued by Customers: Southeast U.S. Consumers' Willingness‐to‐Pay for Farmstead Ice Cream

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Consumer demand for value‐added dairy products has grown substantially, yet consumer preferences for origin information (including farmstead) on ice cream remain underexplored. We used a stated preferences choice experiment to elicit consumers' willingness‐to‐pay (WTP) for ice cream across nine states in the Southeastern U.S.

Clinical Implementation and Perioperative Outcomes of Robot‐Assisted Pelvic Exenteration for Primary Rectal Cancer: A Multicenter Japanese Experience

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Robot‐assisted pelvic exenteration (RPE) was performed with acceptable perioperative outcomes in selected patients with primary rectal cancer. It may serve as a complementary approach at institutions with sufficient experience in PE, whereas open surgery remains essential for extensive or technically demanding disease.
