What Really Drives Agri‐Environment‐Climate Measures' Adoption? Mandatory Requirements, Behavioral Traits, and Structural Factors in the CAP Green Architecture

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To increase farmer adoption of green practices, the EU Common Agricultural Policy includes both mandatory (conditionality) and voluntary instruments (eco‐schemes–ECS– and more demanding, multi‐annual agri‐environment‐climate measures –AECM–). Building on the experiment of Barreiro‐Hurle et al.

Key Drivers of Activity and Selectivity in Cu‐Based Catalysts for Methanol Synthesis From CO2: Insights From Atomically Dispersed Promoters

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Mechanistic studies on model Cu─M/SiO2 catalysts (M = Zn, Ga, and In) reveal that promoters enable a formate spillover pathway from Cu to Mn+ (n = 2 or 3) sites. The promoter's electronic effect on formate bond strengths serves as a quantitative descriptor for activity and selectivity, balancing spillover dynamics with intermediate stabilization to ...

Keeping Pace or Falling Behind? The Depth of Latin American Trade Agreements

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines whether Latin American countries are keeping pace with global trends in trade agreement depth or falling behind. Using 681 agreements (1970–2019), we develop the Depth Index of Trade Agreements (DITA) to weight provisions endogenously through factor analysis based on co‐occurrence patterns.

Do Universal Free School Meals Improve the Dietary Quality of Food‐At‐Home Purchases?

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
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 ...

Farmers' Preferences for Gene Editing Crops and Influencing Factors

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
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.

Analysis of hydraulic parameters in determining the occurrence of cavitation in the spillways of the Furnas, Luiz Carlos Barreto de Carvalho and Batalha hydroelectric power plants [PDF]

RBRH
The hydrodynamic conditions to which hydraulic structures such as spillways and stilling basins of dams are submitted under given conditions favor the occurrence of cavitation, damaging the concrete surfaces.

Does Participating in Agricultural Global Value Chains Promote Agricultural Growth?

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
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.

Essential Updates 2024–2026: Advances in Colorectal Cancer Surgery

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Surgical innovation in colorectal cancer is increasingly judged not by technical feasibility alone, but by whether it improves oncological outcomes, preserves function, reduces morbidity, or makes difficult procedures more reproducible. This structured narrative review examines major surgical studies published from January 2024 through July ...
