Hemp Cultivation and Crop Diversification: Implications for Ecosystem Services in Kentucky
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the ecosystem benefits of expanding hemp cultivation by assessing its impact on crop diversity. Using scenario‐based simulations and fixed‐effect panel regressions with county‐level data in Kentucky, we find that increased hemp acreage tends to enhance crop diversity, improving water quality and bird diversity.

The Geography of Success: A Spatial Analysis of Export Intensity in the Italian Wine Industry
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates the paradox of how Italy's fragmented, SME‐dominated wine industry achieves global export success. Moving beyond purely firm‐centric explanations, we test whether export intensity is spatially dependent, clustering geographically in regional ecosystems.

Is Precision Agriculture Technology Adoption Persistently Overestimated?
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Precision agriculture is sometimes assumed to diffuse steadily over time, and industry planning frequently extrapolates early adoption trends forward. This study evaluates the accuracy of such expectations by comparing agricultural input dealers' forecasts of future service offerings with the actual levels of offerings that dealerships ...

Human‐in‐the‐Loop Swarms: A Bionic Swarm Approach to Real‐World Soil Mapping
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This article introduces the “Bionic Swarm,” a novel system that lowers the barriers to real‐world swarm validation by abstracting difficult hardware tasks to app‐guided human agents. We demonstrate the system's utility through the experimental validation of a geotechnical soil‐mapping swarm algorithm and show superior performance to baseline approaches

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.An agentic AI‐driven decision‐support framework for prosumers is proposed, integrating PV generation, load profiling, and multihorizon optimization within a four‐agent architecture. The approach significantly reduces grid dependence, enhances self‐sufficiency and prevents system oversizing.

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Changing climates are leading to more frequent and severe heat waves, potentially threatening plant populations. Both acclimation to stress and selection for heat‐escape or heat‐resistance phenotypes occur during heat waves. However, plastic responses and selection do not necessarily interact cohesively—even producing trait responses ...

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Since its emergence in the Mesozoic, Sequoia (Cupressaceae) has been considered to possess conserved leaf morphology. However, recent studies have shown that the leaves of extant S. sempervirens become smaller, with a scale form, with increasing tree height.
