Efficiency of Spatial Subsidies Under Information Constraints: A Case Study

Agricultural Economics, Volume 57, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study compares the efficiency of homogeneous versus spatially heterogeneous subsidies in developing agricultural plans compatible with bird sustainability. Using the plains of Lleida as a case study—where incentives for agricultural intensification threaten a bird community‐we employ a spatially explicit model that simulates crop yields ...

Physiological Contribution of Awns to Grain Yield and Quality in Bread and Durum Wheat Under Water‐Limited Mediterranean Conditions

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Terminal drought is a primary constraint to wheat production in Mediterranean environments, often severely reducing grain weight and quality. This study evaluated the physiological contribution of awns to yield formation, water use efficiency (WUE), and grain quality traits in bread wheat [Triticum aestivum L.] and durum wheat [Triticum ...

Ancestral Irrigation and Women's Political Empowerment

Kyklos, Volume 79, Issue 2, Page 377-398, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper advances the hypothesis and establishes empirically that the adoption of irrigation agriculture during the preindustrial period is a predictor of contemporary cross‐country variation in women's political empowerment. Countries whose populations historically relied on irrigation agriculture as their primary subsistence mode tend to ...

Florpyrauxifen‐Benzyl Controls Cirsium arvense by Inhibiting Root Growth and Decreasing Root Bud Regeneration

Weed Research, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cirsium arvense L. (Canada thistle) is a perennial weed with an extensive root system and prolific vegetative propagation through adventitious root buds, making long‐term management challenging. Florpyrauxifen‐benzyl, a novel synthetic auxin herbicide, has shown potential for controlling broadleaf weeds, but its effects on C.

Dominant Role of Soil Moisture Regulating Vegetation Water Content During Flash Drought Evolution

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Increasing flash drought exposure raises global concerns regarding terrestrial ecosystem responses. We investigate the effect of concurrent and past rootzone soil moisture (SM) and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) on vegetation optical depth (VOD), a satellite‐based proxy of vegetation‐water content, during flash drought evolution.
