Determining relationships between soil penetration resistance and some soil physical properties
Reorientation of the soil particles because of the deterioration of the natural structure of the soil system under the influence of precipitation and mechanical forces is defined as soil compaction.

Improving access to new technologies: An experiment with Kenyan input sellers
Abstract Agrodealers play a critical role in rural economies, selling essential inputs for agricultural production, stocking new products, and providing farmers with technical advice. However, uncertainty can discourage them from stocking newer, less familiar products, limiting the availability of innovative technologies and leading to market failures ...

Firm turnover under asymmetric information: Tanzania's agro‐dealer sector
Abstract We study firm turnover (i.e., entry and exit) and its consumer implications in a market characterized by asymmetric information. Using a three‐round census of agro‐dealers in Tanzania's Morogoro Region, we document annual firm entry and exit rates of 33% and 17%, respectively.

Abstract Preserving ecosystem services, along with economic and environmental benefits, will require future landscape policies to identify and incorporate relevant landscape features. In this paper, we investigate the causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on drought‐related grassland damages.

Success of coastal sage scrub restoration is influenced by local adaptations of shrub species
Abstract Premise Restoring plant communities is increasingly challenging with climate change. While practitioners have traditionally used local seed sources, many are recommending assisted migration, possibly from more extreme environments such as inland rather than coastal environments, for restoration.

Molecular Glue Degraders of TEM β‐Lactamases by Periplasmic Protease DegP
Molecular glues are developed that target TEM‐family β‐lactamases to the bacterial protease DegP for degradation. β‐Lactamase inhibitor tazobactam is identified as accelerating TEM β‐lactamase degradation by DegP, which is further enhanced by linkerless incorporation of dipeptides enriched among DegP substrates.
