Rural Labor Supply and Economic Opportunities: Commuting, Migration, Tariffs, and Immigration
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Some rural counties remain dependent on agricultural or manufacturing jobs, but an increasing proportion have diversified economics. Rural counties also differ in their abilities to commute to an urban market characterized by higher wages and labor productivity.

Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Africa's cultural and colonial heritage has profoundly segmented rice markets. Whereas in ancient centers of rice domestication, consumers maintained preferences for local rice consistent with their cultural heritage, preferences have shifted toward imported Asian rice in coastal areas around seaports, due to prior exposure to colonial import ...

The Bitter Taste of Brazil's Temporary Import Ban on Robusta Coffee
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Brazil, a leading Robusta coffee producer and exporter, faced a significant drought in 2016–2017, which drastically reduced production and depleted stocks. Consequently, Brazil temporarily permitted the import of one million 60‐kg bags of Robusta coffee in the spring 2017. An import ban was imposed shortly afterward due to lobbying by domestic

Injury to the sustentaculum tali
The Foot, 1996 Abstract Fracture of the sustentaculum tali is a rare injury. Although treatment of acute injuries is well documented, subsequent treatment of delayed or non-union has not been previously described. We present the case reports of three patients who sustained injuries to the sustentacum tali associated with delayed union.

Calculations of Excitation Functions to Produce 88Y via Various Nuclear Reactions by ALICE/91 and TALYS-1.0 Codes [PDF]
, 2010 Excitation functions were calculated by the ALICE/91 and TALYS-1.0 codes for natRb(a,xn)88Y, natZr(p,pxn)88Y, natSr(a,xn)88Y, 89Y(p,n)88Y and 88Sr(p,n)88Y reactions. The calculated cross sections were compared with the experimental data.
