Felons’ chattels and English living standards in the later fourteenth and fifteenth centuries

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The later fourteenth and fifteenth centuries have long occupied an intriguing and contested place in discussions of England's long‐run economic development. One key issue around which debate has coalesced is the living standards of the population as a whole and of different groups within it. We contribute to this debate by bringing forward new

Potential impact of Stratospheric Aerosol Injection on horticultural crop suitability in Africa

The Geographical Journal, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Global warming will be devastating for horticultural crops in Africa; however, the injection of sulphur into the atmosphere has been proposed as stop‐gap solution that may help reduce the warming. This intervention may lead to an increase (~0.2) in Suitability Index Values (SIV) of mango and tomato over West and central Africa.

Migration, circular mobility and food security in Nicaragua: An analytical framework based on food sourcing and farm household multi‐localisation

The Geographical Journal, EarlyView.
Short Abstract The article proposes a methodological approach to analyse the links between mobility, migration, immobility and food security, and its application to a case study in Nicaragua. Abstract This article explores the links between agriculture, circular mobility, migration and food security in the Global South. It focuses on farm households in

Genetic Evaluation of Reproductive Traits of Ethiopian Sheep Breeds Under Community‐Based Breeding Programmes

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The evaluation of breeding schemes against established objectives and selection traits is essential for assessing the performance, outputs, and overall impacts of breeding programmes. In Ethiopia, most Community‐Based Breeding Programmes (CBBPs) have prioritised growth traits, particularly live weight, as the main selection criteria.

Signature of Selection Analysis Reveals Candidate Genes Related to Climate Adaptation and Production Traits in Lao Native Goats

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Detecting selection footprints offers valuable insight into evolutionary processes and the mechanisms underlying phenotypic diversity in selected traits. Domestication, natural and artificial selection, and breeding have produced indigenous goats well‐adapted to their local environments, making them crucial genetic resources. Understanding the

Environmental Supply Chain Regulations in a Changing Market Environment: Exploring the EU's Regulatory Power in the Cocoa Sector in Ghana

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract The article explores the European Union's (EU) regulatory power through supply chain initiatives, in the context of shifting market dynamics towards China and Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). Focusing on the EU Regulation on Deforestation‐free products (EUDR) and the cocoa sector in Ghana as a most likely case study, the article
