Causal analysis of trade loss from pathogens: A global study of foot and mouth disease impacts on meat exports

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Our general interest is in global trade loss from livestock pathogens, specifically exports. We adopt a causal inference approach that considers animal disease outbreaks over time as non‐staggered binary treatments with the potential for switching in (infection) and out of treatment (recovery) within the sample period. The outcome evolution of

An artificial neural network–based deep learning model to predict combined stress impact and interaction in plants

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Plants are frequently exposed to combinations of abiotic and biotic stresses that pose a greater threat to yield and productivity than individual stresses. However, knowledge of the impact of many stress combinations in numerous plants is limited due to the lack of experimental data, which could take decades to generate.
