Selective vs. Broad-Spectrum Pesticides: When Do Private Decisions Differ from Socially Optimal Decisions? [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper examines the spatial externalities of conventional and organic pest control methods to determine if, and how, the two types affect each other. These interactions make the problem more complicated than the usual analysis of a single externality.

Scalable Fabrication of Electrochemical Sensors Via Inkjet Printing of Functionalized Graphene for Pesticide Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Inkjet printing enables uniform, reproducible, and stable deposition of nitrogen‐doped graphene acid (NGA) on screen‐printed electrodes, outperforming traditional drop‐casting. The resulting electrochemical sensor exhibits enhanced sensitivity, long‐term stability, and efficient imidacloprid detection.
