Pricing Dynamics in the US Hemp Market: A Vertical Price Transmission Analysis of the Hemp Value Chain

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The US hemp market is a new and nascent industry that has been devoid of research for about half a century. This study examined the effects of exogenous shock on price at each phase of the value chain—Farm (hemp biomass), and its impact on prices at other phases of the value chain—Intermediary Processor (crude cannabidiol hemp) and Final ...

Landscape of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation in porcine cells identifies candidate genes associated with porcine epidemic diarrhea virus infection

Frontiers in Microbiology
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) infection leads to serious intestinal disease in piglets, often leading to high mortality rates and substantial economic losses. Understanding host–PEDV interactions is crucial for PEDV therapeutic strategies.

SIRT7 deletion inhibits Glaesserella parasuis-mediated inflammatory responses in porcine alveolar macrophages

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Glaesserella parasuis (GPS) infection causes severe inflammatory disorder, resulting in lung injury. SIRT7 is an NAD+-dependent deacetylase known to regulate inflammatory responses, but its role in GPS infection remains unclear.

Consumers' Willingness to Pay a Premium for Climate‐Friendly Food Production: The Role of Production Method Information and Social Norms

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines whether information about production methods and social norms can increase consumers' willingness to pay (WTP) a price premium for food produced using climate‐friendly farming methods. A randomized survey experiment was conducted with 1568 respondents across Denmark, Lithuania, and Spain, who were assigned to one of four ...

Does Participating in Agricultural Global Value Chains Promote Agricultural Growth?

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the relationship between GVC participation and agricultural value‐added growth in 43 countries over the period 1995–2022. In contrast to prior literature, we disaggregate the agricultural sector into four sub‐sectors namely crop cultivation, animal production, forestry and fishing.

Synchronizing food availability with the natural rhythm substantially improves reproduction and extends healthspan in laying hens

Scientific Reports
Disrupted sleep due to nighttime eating can raise various concerns, impacting both physical health and overall well-being. Nevertheless, there is a lack of direct evidence linking nighttime eating with the female reproduction system, possibly due to the ...

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

American 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

Comparative study of the effects of baicalin and probenecid on microRNA expression profiles in porcine aortic vascular endothelial cells infected by Glaesserella parasuis

BMC Veterinary Research
Background Glaesserella parasuis elicits severe inflammatory responses and vascular damage, thus resulting in high mortality and morbidity in pigs; consequently, early diagnosis and treatment are critical to controlling economic losses. MicroRNAs (miRNAs)

Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.
