ABSTRACT Seventeenth‐century virtuosi often figured themselves as epistemic weeders, grubbing up rank thickets of accumulated error. In this article, I argue that these metaphors were unnerved by the shifting status of weeds—ostensibly unwanted plants from the margins of cultivated space, unploughed land or the disturbed soils between growing crops—in ...

High Temperatures and Rural Household Expenditure: Evidence From Longitudinal Data in Colombia
ABSTRACT This paper examines the impact of rising temperature on rural household expenditure in Colombia by combining high‐resolution gridded weather data with a rich longitudinal household survey. Our results show that a one‐standard‐deviation increase in average daily temperature during the rainy months significantly reduces rural household ...

Moral Tolerance: The Ethics of Social Punishment in Cases of Moral Disagreement
ABSTRACT In many practical contemporary contexts, people need to make correct ethical judgements about how to respond to perceived wrongdoing—in particular, whether to punish it or tolerate it. This judgement can be challenging when the wrongdoer does not accept the allegation of wrongdoing at the level of moral principle, holding that the type of ...

Legacy hexaconazole and tricyclazole residues hinder organic transition in paddy rice cultivation
Hexaconazole and tricyclazole residues persisted in paddy soil throughout the three consecutive growing seasons after a single foliar application. These findings, combined with potential animal feed risks from contaminated rice straw, indicate that the current 2‐year organic transitional period is insufficient, necessitating extended conversion periods

Abstract Diverse perennial circular systems that focus on grazing offer many environmental benefits. However, the use of annual forages may be necessary where perennial pastures have declined. Our study sought to evaluate herbage components in a double‐cropped annual forage experiment with triticale [×Triticosecale Wittm. ex A. Camus (Secale × Triticum)
