Effect of plant population on crop growth, floral biomass, and cannabinoid yield in field‐grown hemp
Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) was recently re‐legalized in the United States and cultivated for various purposes, including floral cannabidiol (CBD), grain, and fiber. Due to prohibition of hemp for a century, research supporting production guidelines, including plant density effects on CBD production, remains limited.

Installation, repair, retrieval, and economic returns of S3DI systems in corn and cotton rotations
Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract The use of shallow subsurface drip irrigation (S3DI) systems in row crops can be economically favorable, provided the system remains in the field without major repairs for a substantial period. This research documents installation, repairs, retrieval, and partial economic returns of S3DI systems in service for 4, 5, 6, and 8 years.

The Longevity of Hybrid Identity Family Businesses
Canadian Journal of Administrative Sciences / Revue Canadienne des Sciences de l'Administration, Volume 43, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT This paper examines family firms that have endured for more than 100 years, focusing on how their hybrid identities, combining the normative values of the family with the utilitarian goals of the business, contribute to their longevity. We address two research questions: How do family firms achieve longevity beyond 100 years? How do long‐lived
