Temperature Sensitivity and Adaptation of Cereal Yields: Empirical Evidence From Italy

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the evolving temperature sensitivity and climate adaptation of cereal yields in Italy from 1952 to 2023, using province‐level data for maize, common wheat, and durum wheat. Employing panel data econometric methods, we estimate yield responses to heat exposure, changes in sensitivity over time, and adaptation to climate ...

Effects of chlorpyrifos-methyl and pirimiphos-methyl applied with 5°C temperature on Sitophilus oryzae (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in wheat grain

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2018
The effects of the insecticides chlorpyrifos-methyl and pirimiphos-methyl in combination with low temperature treatment at 5°C were tested in the laboratory to improve the existing pest management programs for S. oryzae control. Adults were released into

Drivers of Precision Agriculture Adoption in Italian Viticulture

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the main drivers influencing the adoption of two types of precision farming technologies in the viticultural sector: Decision Support Systems (DSSs) and Variable Rate Technologies (VRTs). We apply a partial proportional odds model and find that socio‐demographic characteristics are not significant determinants of adoption ...

Farmers' Preferences for Gene Editing Crops and Influencing Factors

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gene editing (GE) is gaining momentum worldwide, but limited data on UK farmers' preferences hinders our understanding of its potential impact amid deregulation debates. Based on a survey of 200 English arable farmers, we employ a Latent Class Analysis and Multinomial Logit regressions to investigate current preferences for GE crops.

A Vanillin‐Derived Inhibitor of Aggregates via Targeting Intrinsically Disordered Regions of Phytoviral Nucleocapsid Protein

Aggregate
Phase separation (PS) plays a fundamental role in organizing aggregates during the viral lifecycle, providing significant opportunities for in viral disease treatment by inhibiting PS. Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) have been extensively studied

Behavior of Pesticides (1): Efficiency Evaluation of Pesticides

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2001
The correlation equation for the concentration-mortality curve of a specific pesticide and a control pesticide was used to adapt the effectiveness data from residual activity tests to the corresponding chemical application concentration, to calculate the constant with the decreasing speed equation, and to calculate the application dose necessary to ...

Voluntary Collective Action to Address Growing Agricultural Challenges in Two Countries: Experimental Insights and Commonalities

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We conducted two framed field economic experiments with citrus farmers in Florida, United States and soybean farmers in Argentina to investigate their willingness to coordinate pest and weed management efforts. Despite the contrast between these two agricultural contexts, we find striking behavioral commonalities.

Integrating Perennial Groundcover in Corn and Soybean Acres: Impacts on U.S. Agriculture

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable agricultural practices such as cover cropping can improve soil health, water quality, and carbon sequestration, yet U.S. adoption remains limited due to economic and operational barriers. We evaluate market and economic impacts of integrating perennial groundcover into U.S.
