Farm Mechanization in Indian Agriculture with Focus on Tractors
Social Science Research Network, 2020 Indian agriculture is dominated by smallholders. With an average holding size of just 1.08 hectares (ha) (in 2015-16), and 86 percent of holdings being of less than 2 ha in size, Indian agriculture transformed the country from functioning ‘ship-to-mouth’

Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study advances the literature on sustainable urban agriculture and alternative sustainable food production systems, which have gained momentum due to the need to strengthen regional food supply chains and meet the growing urban demand for fresh food. Indoor agriculture (IA) holds promise for year‐round cultivation of fresh produce even in

Farmers’ Protests in Germany: Media Coverage and Types of Bias
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The German farmers’ protests of 2024 sparked widespread media coverage and public debate. Yet, media coverage was not always positive, reflecting the media's attention‐seeking and selective focus. Occurrences of farmers blocking media outlets reflected distrust in how their concerns were portrayed.
