Examining the Impact of Row Planting on Labor Use for Sustainable Food Production Among Maize Farmers in Rural Ghana

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers are reverting to traditional production methods due to the high opportunity costs and unintended consequences of new technologies. This study focuses on row planting technology, which is labor‐intensive and slow without mechanized operations.

Access to Finance and Innovation in the Canadian Food Processing

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Innovation is a presumed channel through which finance affects productivity, yet there is limited research testing the relationship between finance and innovation in the food manufacturing sector. The purpose of the paper is to explore the determinants (e.g., financing, R&D, firm size, expenditure on innovation) of the adoption of innovation ...

Elucidation of the genetic determination of body weight and size in Chinese local chicken breeds by large-scale genomic analyses

BMC Genomics
Background Body weight and size are important economic traits in chickens. While many growth-related quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and candidate genes have been identified, further research is needed to confirm and characterize these findings.

Quasi‐Resonant Tunneling Transport in Magnetic CrBr3

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This study investigates tunneling mechanisms in van der Waals (vdW) magnetic materials, with a focus on CrBr3. Unlike bulk materials, the vdW gap influences tunnel barriers, enabling layer‐resolved quasi‐resonant tunneling (QRT) through ladder‐shaped barriers.
