How Competitive Is Myanmar's Rice Sector? A Comparison of Production Costs and Efficiency
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the cost competitiveness of rice production in Myanmar by examining production costs, cost efficiency, and the potential effect of improving cost efficiency on the country's global competitiveness. To achieve this, we conduct a comparative analysis of production costs among major rice‐producing countries and estimate the ...

Pesticide MRLs as Trade Barriers: Evidence From Vietnam's Coffee and Rice Exporters
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As tariffs have declined globally through bilateral and regional trade agreements, food safety standards have emerged as significant determinants of agricultural trade flows. This study examines the impact of maximum residue limits (MRLs) for five pesticides—Azoxystrobin, Chlorpyrifos, Chlorantraniliprole, Clothianidin, and Cyhalothrin—on ...

Weather Attention in Online Discourse and Price Uncertainty in Agricultural Futures Markets
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Weather is a central determinant of production risk in agricultural markets, but markets respond not only to weather conditions themselves, but also to how those conditions are noticed, framed, and interpreted in public discourse. In this setting, real‐time online weather discussions may shape price uncertainty by influencing how market ...

Does Contract Farming Reduce Pesticide Use? Panel Data Evidence From Smallholder Farmers in China
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The inappropriate and excessive use of pesticides poses a major threat to human and ecosystem health in the agri‐food sector. While existing studies have examined the potential of contract farming to address this issue, most have focused on large‐scale farms and relied on small or transactional datasets, often leaving the role of crop‐specific

Accelerating Phosphate Transport Across Membranes via Synergistic Chemical‐Electrochemical Carriers
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.A new membrane design principle based on synergistic chemical and electrochemical carriers is proposed to construct an electro‐driven carrier‐conducting membrane for high‐throughput phosphate transport. Monodispersed ferrihydrite nanoparticles embedded within the membrane act as built‐in phosphate carriers, enabling accelerated phosphate migration via ...
