Livelihood Diversification as an Adaptation Strategy to Climate Change and Household Food Security of Livestock Holders in Pakistan

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rural farm households continue to face significant risks from climate change, resulting in many of them diversifying their livelihood sources into other income‐generating activities to increase their incomes and improve food and nutrition security. In this study, we examine the drivers and impact of farm households' participation in livelihood

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper asks whether municipalities with a larger export‐to‐revenue ratio display a more concentrated bundle of exported goods in Brazilian agribusiness. Recent advances in export imputation for Brazilian municipalities allow for an analysis of the concentration profile of each municipality and its association with export openness.

Quantifying Consumer Tradeoffs Across Firm‐Level Strategic Positioning Dimensions: Evidence from US Craft Beer Consumers

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Strategic positioning becomes increasingly important as markets mature, particularly in consumer‐facing industries that offer similar products, experiential cues, and values‐based messages. This study offers a conceptual model to examine the strategic positioning factors that motivate consumers to visit one local business over another before ...

Does Contract Farming Reduce Pesticide Use? Panel Data Evidence From Smallholder Farmers in China

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
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

Autonomous X‐Ray Fluorescence Mapping for Nanoscale Chemical Speciation of Fine Particulate Matter

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
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.

Behaviorally Adaptive and Inclusive Advanced Driver‐Assistance Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Advanced driver‐assistance systems (ADASs) are mapped as evolving human‐centered, adaptive technologies linking sensing, driver monitoring, AR/HUD interfaces, patents, regulation, and inclusive design. The review identifies gaps in real‐world evidence, diverse‐driver validation, gaze metrics, and governance, outlining a roadmap for safer, behaviorally ...
