Effects of No-Tillage Production Practices on Crop Yields as Influenced by Crop and Growing Environment Factors [PDF]

This paper evaluated differences between yields of no-tillage compared to conventional or reduced tillage and their associated downside risk. Six crops were evaluated along with how those yields and risks differed by various environmental factors such ...

Policy uncertainty shocks and farm investments in Europe: Evidence from a newspaper‐based index

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract In order to quantify the impact of agricultural policy uncertainty on European farmers' investment behavior, we construct a newspaper‐based monthly index of European agricultural policy uncertainty from 2013 to 2023. We use 327,224 newspaper articles to assess and compare the trends in policy uncertainty across five top agricultural producers ...

Negotiating contested spaces and places: Narratives of social suffering and resistance in racialized Cape Town communities

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study employs a schizocartographic approach to explore community narratives of space, memory, and violence in Kraaifontein, Cape Town. Through participants' accounts, ordinary places—gardens, shops, blocks, sports grounds, and streets—emerge as ambivalent geographies where trauma, resilience, and belonging intersect.

Zero tillage crop production in Manitoba

, 1973
The influence of three years of zero tillage on weed populations and crop response was studied at three locations in Southern Manitoba, The crops grown were wheat (Triticum aestivum L., cv. Manitou), barley (Hordeum vulgare L., cv. Conquest and cv. Paragon), flax (Linum usitatissimum L., cv. Noralta), and rapeseed (Brassica napus L. var. annua Koch cv.

Follicle Stimulating Hormone in Cattle Breeding: Fundamentals, Innovations, and Scope

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
FSH is crucial in cattle reproduction, with exogenous administration enhancing breeding and embryo production. Recombinant FSH offers advantages over pituitary‐extracted variants, including fewer injections, reduced stress, and safer production. These innovations improve breeding efficiency, optimize reproductive outcomes, and contribute to sustainable

Assessing the Impact of International Natural Resource Management Research: The Case of Zero Tillage in India's Rice-Wheat Systems [PDF]

A conservative ex-ante assessment of supply-shift gains alone (excluding social and environmental gains), shows that the investment in zero tillage (ZT) R&D by the Rice-Wheat Consortium and CIMMYT was highly beneficial with a benefit-cost ratio of 39, a ...
