Temperature Sensitivity and Adaptation of Cereal Yields: Empirical Evidence From Italy

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the evolving temperature sensitivity and climate adaptation of cereal yields in Italy from 1952 to 2023, using province‐level data for maize, common wheat, and durum wheat. Employing panel data econometric methods, we estimate yield responses to heat exposure, changes in sensitivity over time, and adaptation to climate ...

Ban Glyphosate—Does It Affect the Swedish Farmers' Willingness to Grow Cover Crops?

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The cultivation of cover crops is one of the new Eco‐scheme practices introduced in Sweden. This study examines how the design of policy attributes of these schemes influences farmers' willingness to grow cover crops on arable land, with particular focus on the potential impact of a glyphosate ban.

Soil classification is not quite in place for discussion

open access: yes, 2013
As the theory and mathematical methods have been so far introduced insufficiently into elaborating the soil classification nowadays, an attempt is made to demonstrate some available approaches. An aphoristic title of this paper is used not to dethrone an

CHARACTERIZATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF SOILS FOR SELECTED SITES IN SOUTHERN ETHIOPIA

open access: yesTropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems
Background: Soils in southern Ethiopia are under intensive cultivation, and low soil fertility is a major problem. However, very little is known about soil types and their inherent nature to support specific decisions on soil managements.

Coping With Production Risk: Effects of Sown Plant Diversity on the Attractiveness of Crop Insurance in Grasslands

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increased frequency of extreme weather events, particularly droughts, threatens grassland farming by destabilizing yields and farms' economic viability. We examine, theoretically and through numerical simulations, how sown plant diversity (natural insurance) influences the attractiveness of indemnity and drought index insurance (formal ...
