Spraying drones: efficacy of integrating an avian repellent with drone hazing to elicit blackbird flock dispersal and abandonment of sunflower fields

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Multiple management strategies exist to combat bird damage to agriculture. We explored combining two tools, drones as frightening devices and an avian repellent, to assess effectiveness of an integrated method to deter large flocks on complex landscapes. We evaluated the ability of a spraying drone (DJI Agras MG‐1P) deploying Avian Control (i.e. active

Agricultural Vulnerability Assessment: Climate and Non‐Climate Interactions in Crop Production Systems

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent climate phenomena show that Spain is one of the most vulnerable countries to climate change impacts, with varied regional effects from flash floods to drought. This study assesses the vulnerability of four major crops (cereal, rice, grape and olive) in Catalonia to climate change through a comprehensive vulnerability index incorporating

Toasting With Strangers? Export Spillovers From Chinese Winery Acquisitions in the Bordeaux Vineyards

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Foreign entrants may threaten and, at the same time, present local companies with opportunities for favourable spillovers. Building on the awareness‐motivation‐capability framework, this paper aims to provide empirical evidence for a positive co‐location or spatial proximity effect of foreign presence on local peer companies’ exports.
