Did the Indian Green Revolution Change the Farm Size–Productivity Relationship?
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We examine the relationship between farm size and productivity during India's Green Revolution, a period of rapid technological transformation. Using a unique panel of over 5000 Indian farm households that spans the Green Revolution (1971–1999), we show that the classic (linear) inverse farm size–productivity relationship gradually evolved ...

Rain and ice flagging of Envisat altimeter and MWR data [PDF]
, 2004 Altimetry range, wave height, and wind speed measurements are often corrupted by two effects over the ocean: rain and sea-ice. Radiometer measurements, which provide the altimetric wet troposphere correction, are similarly corrupted by the presence of ...

Accelerated Steady-State Torque Computation for Induction Machines using Parallel-In-Time Algorithms
, 2019 This paper focuses on efficient steady-state computations of induction machines. In particular, the periodic Parareal algorithm with initial-value coarse problem (PP-IC) is considered for acceleration of classical time-stepping simulations via non ...

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Amid rising food and fertilizer prices, understanding farmers' policy preferences is critical for effective crisis response. We use best‐worst scaling experiment to assess Kenyan mobile‐owning crop farmers' preferences for government support under high and normal price scenarios.

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rice is the main staple food for more than half of the world's population and the income from rice is an essential source for livelihoods of millions of households. We examine whether direct seed in rice production is an adaptation of rice farmers to rainfall changes and farm labor scarcity.
