Harsh Winter Shocks and Distress Sales: Consumption and Asset Smoothing Among Livestock Farmers in Kyrgyzstan

open access: yesJournal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The sale of livestock has long been considered a means of mitigation in case of drought, but there is no evidence of how this is achieved in the event of severe winters. This article focuses on the exceptionally harsh winter days that Kyrgyzstan experienced in 2012, as well as harsh winter days in other years, to analyse how livestock owners ...

Imperial systems and local landscapes of Buldan Yayla in Western Anatolia (Türkiye) during the last 4000 years: An integrated palynological, historical, and archaeological approach

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates long‐term impacts of empires on local socio‐ecosystems in western Anatolia (modern western Türkiye) over the past four millennia. We focus on Buldan Yayla Lake, located in a small mountain basin north of the Büyük Menderes (Great Meander) River valley.

Climate change and the antinutrient–antioxidant puzzle in common bean seeds

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Non‐proteinaceous and proteinaceous antinutrients in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) seeds can negatively affect human nutrition by reducing mineral bioavailability and impairing protein digestibility during digestion, respectively. However, many of these compounds also possess strong antioxidant properties that can help protect the plant ...

Morpho‐physiological and agronomic responses of wheat varieties under artificial shade in agroforestry systems

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Solar radiation is a primary constraint in silvoarable agroforestry, with yield losses near the trees well documented in temperate climates. However, genetic variability for shade tolerance remains largely unexplored. This 2‐year field trial investigated the impact of artificial shading – using nets that reduced photosynthetically ...
