A PROFITABILITY ANALYSIS OF DAIRY FEEDING SYSTEMS IN THE NORTHEAST [PDF]

This study analyzes the use and profitability of three distinct feeding systems; confinement feeding, traditional grazing, and management-intensive grazing from a randomly selected sample of northeastern dairy farms.

Framework for X‐ray mirror surface shape fitting

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
The closed‐form expressions for elliptic cylinders, hyperbolic cylinders, ellipsoids, hyperboloids, and diaboloids used for X‐ray mirror surface shapes are summarized. Additionally, a four‐layer framework to fit the measured surface shape data in slope or height for convenient X‐ray mirror surface characterization is proposed.For accurate ...

Mammalian herbivory indirectly shapes savanna arthropod communities but only at very low or high levels

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study investigates how large mammalian herbivores shape arthropod communities in African savannas, using a broad gradient of herbivory types and intensities to assess these effects under real‐world, non‐experimental conditions. Abstract Savanna ecosystems support unique biodiversity and provide livelihoods for millions of people.

Effects of soil physical properties on dung beetle assemblages in pasture landscapes of the Brazilian Cerrado

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
We assessed the effect of the type of soil texture (loamy sand and sandy loam) and its physical properties on dung beetle species assemblages in a pastureland region of the Brazilian Cerrado. We found a reduction in the total and paracoprid beetle abundances in loamy sand soil. Furthermore, the increase of soil compaction negatively affected the entire

Harvesting benefits: Exploring the effects of second‐best policies on enhancing soil organic carbon stocks in agriculture

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural subsidies can be an effective policy tool to enhance soil organic carbon sequestration. This paper assesses the effectiveness of a second‐best hypothetical policy which subsidizes additional canola hectares optimally for each soil zone in Saskatchewan in an effort to increase soil organic carbon.

Agroecology and Transformative Adaptation to Climate Change

Asia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines transformative adaptation to climate change through the EFICAS Project (Eco‐Friendly Intensification and Climate‐resilient Agricultural Systems) implemented across 12 upland communities in northern Laos from 2014 to 2020.
