Protecting While Promoting? The Limits of Agroindustry‐Driven Pesticide Safety in Ugandan Smallholder Agriculture

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pesticide use is expanding rapidly across sub‐Saharan Africa, while regulatory oversight and public protection structures remain weak, leaving smallholder farmers exposed to mounting health and environmental risks. In response, agrochemical industry actors have launched ‘safe use’ initiatives that emphasize training and personal protective ...

Scaling Social Impact at Tony's Chocolonely: How Interactional Dynamics Shape Social Innovation Processes and Drive Institutional Change

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Social enterprises are frontrunners in social innovation, yet our understanding of how they can scale their social impact beyond local, contained contexts remains nascent. To transform the institutional environment that gives rise to social problems, social enterprises must mobilize actors with divergent interests, values, and beliefs to ...

Global Poultry Feed Protein Sources: Trends, Challenges, and Sustainability Perspectives Using FAOSTAT Data

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global poultry industry is one of the fastest‐growing livestock sectors, with worldwide chicken stocks exceeding 32 billion heads and meat production surpassing 144 million tonnes in 2024 (FAOSTAT, 2026). Conventional protein sources, particularly soybean meal (SBM) and fishmeal, underpin most commercial poultry diets but face mounting ...

Identification and functional analysis of class 3 lipases associated with triacylglycerol metabolism in Nannochloropsis oceanica (Eustigmatophyceae)

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microalgae accumulate triacylglycerols (TAGs) as storage lipids in response to nutrient limitation, yet the mechanisms governing TAG turnover remain incompletely understood. In the oleaginous microalga Nannochloropsis oceanica, functional studies of TAG degradation have focused on lipases containing patatin domains, whereas the roles of other ...

How Institutions Shape the Effects of Agricultural Cooperatives on Their Members

open access: yesKyklos, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural cooperatives represent a promising way of improving the quality of life of half a billion smallholders, who account for the vast majority of the world's food production. Yet, little is known about the institutional factors that explain the potential benefits of being a member of a cooperative.

Protein Decoys, Alcohol, and Energy Intake: Testing a Mechanistic‐Ecological Model

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ultra‐processed diets are associated with excessive energy intake, but studies examining the role of alcohol have produced conflicting results, despite the high energy density of ethanol. We constructed a mechanistic‐ecological model to explain this inconsistency and tested its predictions using population dietary data.
