Does Contract Farming Reduce Pesticide Use? Panel Data Evidence From Smallholder Farmers in China
ABSTRACT The inappropriate and excessive use of pesticides poses a major threat to human and ecosystem health in the agri‐food sector. While existing studies have examined the potential of contract farming to address this issue, most have focused on large‐scale farms and relied on small or transactional datasets, often leaving the role of crop‐specific

The Effect of Sustainability Information on Consumers' Preferences for Fungus‐Resistant Grape Wine
ABSTRACT The demand for sustainable food production is intensifying the need to reduce the environmental and social impacts of pesticide use in agriculture. In viticulture, where dependence on pesticides is high because grapevines are susceptible to fungal diseases, fungus‐resistant grape varieties (PIWI) offer a promising strategy to reduce chemical ...

Autonomous X‐Ray Fluorescence Mapping for Nanoscale Chemical Speciation of Fine Particulate Matter
We present X‐AutoMap, an autonomous X‐ray fluorescence mapping framework that integrates real‐time analysis with rule‐based computer vision to selectively target chemically relevant regions. By avoiding background‐dominated areas, the method reduces acquisition time by fourfold while enabling accurate particle‐level speciation.
