Integrating Perennial Groundcover in Corn and Soybean Acres: Impacts on U.S. Agriculture
ABSTRACT Sustainable agricultural practices such as cover cropping can improve soil health, water quality, and carbon sequestration, yet U.S. adoption remains limited due to economic and operational barriers. We evaluate market and economic impacts of integrating perennial groundcover into U.S.

Ex‐Ante Assessment of Farm Resilience to Institutional Shocks: A Modeling Approach
ABSTRACT Using the agent‐based model SWISSland, we simulate farm‐level responses and interactions under two institutional shocks: tariff reductions and direct payment reductions. Using a framework we developed, we assess resilience capacities, resilience attributes, and the provision of private and public goods, following the shock.

ABSTRACT Drought is among the most severe and persistent threats to food supply chains, and relocating production to less drought‐prone regions offers a strategy to reduce this risk. This is particularly relevant for fresh vegetables, which are highly water‐intensive, yet drought‐driven reconfiguration strategies remain understudied.

Climate change and perennial crop production: Evidence of yield impact and adaptation in California
Abstract Perennial crops are economically important. They contribute to food security, providing essential nutrients that are often lacking in annual crops, and provide additional environmental benefits compared with annual crops. Despite their importance, empirical research on the impacts of climate change and adaptation on perennial crops remains ...

Premium subsidy designs and crowding out of insurance demand
Abstract Crop insurance is an important instrument to protect farmers against extreme weather events. Many countries provide subsidies for crop insurance products to make insurance more affordable for farmers. The Federal Crop Insurance Program in the United States and major European crop insurance programs such as in Spain, Italy, and France focus on ...

Led by the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT), with the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) as its main CGIAR Consortium partner, The CGIAR Agri-food Research Program MAIZE focuses on increasing maize production ...
CGIAR Research Program on Maize
core
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.
