Smart food‐sharing platforms for social sustainability: a heuristic algorithm approach

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines how smart food‐sharing platforms (SFSP) can help reduce food waste and suggests a method for using smart contracts to share extra food among different partners effectively. For smart contracts to work automatically and prevent food wastage, artificial intelligence systems can recognize how smart clauses should be executed ...

The persistence and expansion of sharecropping in a Javanese village

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
Abstract In the Javanese village of Kaliloro, share tenancy in rice cultivation, which was widely predicted to disappear with the Green Revolution, has not declined but expanded since the early 1970s. In this article, building on previous debates on share tenancy, we show how sharecropping has survived and expanded in Kaliloro's generally commoditized ...

Estimating the minimal cost of delivering nutrition‐specific and nutrition‐sensitive interventions in Ethiopia

open access: yesMaternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
The minimum cost of the 10 years on identified nutrition‐specific and nutrition‐sensitive interventions of the National Food and Nutrition Strategy in Ethiopia is estimated to be US$ 2.55bn with an average annual cost of $250 million over 10 years (2021–2030), which is only 2.3% of the Ethiopian Annual GDP 111.27 billion US dollars in 2021 (World bank).

High yield production of the antifungal proteins PeAfpA and PdAfpB by vacuole targeting in a TMV‐based expression vector

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Antifungal proteins (AFPs) derived from filamentous fungi show great potential against economically significant fungi that cause plant diseases and consequently threat food safety and security. This study focuses on the Penicillium expansum PeAfpA and Penicillium digitatum PdAfpB proteins and their activity against several phytopathogens.
