Do Universal Free School Meals Improve the Dietary Quality of Food‐At‐Home Purchases?
ABSTRACT Since 2014, the number of schools offering universal free meals to all enrolled children without requiring annual meal applications has increased meaningfully. Using USDA's Purchase to Plate Crosswalk, a difference‐in‐differences framework, and a nationwide consumer panel, the effect of universal‐free‐meal exposure on the diet quality of food ...

Improved design of guide wall of bank spillway at Yutang Hydropower Station
Ensuring that water flows smoothly into spillways is the main challenge in spillway design. In order to help avoid the formation of vortices and separation of flow along the guide wall in front of the gates during overflow through the spillway, an ...

Farmers' Preferences for Gene Editing Crops and Influencing Factors
ABSTRACT Gene editing (GE) is gaining momentum worldwide, but limited data on UK farmers' preferences hinders our understanding of its potential impact amid deregulation debates. Based on a survey of 200 English arable farmers, we employ a Latent Class Analysis and Multinomial Logit regressions to investigate current preferences for GE crops.

Does Participating in Agricultural Global Value Chains Promote Agricultural Growth?
ABSTRACT This study examines the relationship between GVC participation and agricultural value‐added growth in 43 countries over the period 1995–2022. In contrast to prior literature, we disaggregate the agricultural sector into four sub‐sectors namely crop cultivation, animal production, forestry and fishing.

Human‐in‐the‐Loop Swarms: A Bionic Swarm Approach to Real‐World Soil Mapping
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
