Reconfiguring Fresh Produce Supply Chains in Response to Drought Risk: Evidence From the U.S. Broccoli Market

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought is among the most severe and persistent threats to food supply chains, and relocating production to less drought‐prone regions offers a strategy to reduce this risk. This is particularly relevant for fresh vegetables, which are highly water‐intensive, yet drought‐driven reconfiguration strategies remain understudied.

Vertical Price Transmission in Food Markets: New Evidence From Meta‐Analysis

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A growing body of empirical research has examined price dynamics along the food supply chain, yet findings remain heterogeneous and often conflicting. This study conducts a meta‐analysis of 140 studies, totaling 652 observations, to examine (1) the reported presence of asymmetric price transmission and (2) the reported direction of price ...

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

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.

Climate change and perennial crop production: Evidence of yield impact and adaptation in California

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Perennial crops are economically important. They contribute to food security, providing essential nutrients that are often lacking in annual crops, and provide additional environmental benefits compared with annual crops. Despite their importance, empirical research on the impacts of climate change and adaptation on perennial crops remains ...

High Diagnosis Rate for Nonimmune Hydrops Fetalis With Prenatal Clinical Genome: Expanded Results From the Hydrops‐Yielding Diagnostic Results of Prenatal Sequencing (HYDROPS) Study

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonimmune hydrops fetalis (NIHF) is characterized by abnormal fluid accumulation in ≥ 2 fetal compartments and may be genetic. The incremental diagnostic yield of prenatal exome sequencing (ES) for NIHF following a negative standard workup was previously explored on 22 cases.

Navigating Whiteness in Australia's Anti‐Racism Movement: A Duoethnographic Inquiry by Women of Colour Scholars

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper applies Critical Race Theory (CRT) to explore how whiteness operates within Australia's anti‐racism movement as a structuring force that shapes discourse, practice and policy. Despite the anti‐racism movement offering crucial spaces for resistance and reform, it remains entangled in Australia's settler‐colonial present and systemic ...

Polymer Brushes Govern Defect‐Selective Oxidative Etching of Penta‐Twinned Gold Nanorods

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Polymer brushes act as active interfacial regulators of oxidative etching, directing it to crystallographic defects. In penta‐twinned gold nanorods, defect–ligand interplay localizes etching to defect regions and induces surface corrugations on the long nanorod sides. This work establishes a framework for programmable nanoengineering of the surfaces of

Nothing to See Here: Researching Non‐Recent Child Abuse in Schools and the Politics of Silence

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While institutions, including schools, have responsibilities to protect children from harm, responses to instances of child sexual abuse have often exhibited avoidance and denial. Recent public inquiries in Australia revealed that some institutions, particularly in the Catholic sector, employed a deliberate strategy of silence which was used ...
