Adoption and welfare impact of improved food legume technologies in Bale Highlands of Ethiopia: Intra and inter-household empirical analysis by Degefu, Z.

“…The results from probit and clog-log indicate that age, livestock holding, farm size, membership in farmers cooperatives, contact with agricultural research center, household head participation in off-farm activity, distance from agricultural extension office and main market; and location (district dummy) were factors that significantly determine farmers decision to adopt improved food legume technologies. …”

Big data and multiple methods for mapping small reservoirs: comparing accuracies for applications in agricultural landscapes by Jones, S.K., Fremier, Alexander K., DeClerck, Fabrice A.J., Smedley, D., Ortega Pieck, A., Mulligan, M.

“…Data gaps and uncertainties make GSW derived reservoir extents unsuitable for monitoring reservoirs that are smaller than 5.1 ha (holding ~49,759 m3), which constitute 674 (56%) reservoirs in the Volta basin, or monitoring seasonal fluctuations of most small reservoirs, limiting its utility for agricultural planning. …”

Patch choice from a distance and use of habitat information during foraging by the parasitoid Ibalia leucospoides by Fischbein, Deborah, Bettinelli, Julieta, Bernstein, Carlos, Corley, Juan Carlos

“…Contrary to the study prediction, there were no significant habitat-dependent time allocation differences among patches holding the same number of hosts. 5. The results indicate that, for I. leucospoides, patch exploitation decisions are partially influenced by information obtained from the habitat as a whole, a behaviour that may prove to indicate adaptive ability in highly patchy environments, as well as suggesting the presence of good cognitive abilities in this parasitoid species.…”

High pressure processing applied for enhancing the antioxidant content of minimally processed peaches by Denoya, Gabriela Inés, Polenta, Gustavo Alberto, Apóstolo, Nancy Mariel, Budde, Claudio Olaf, Cristianini, M., Vaudagna, Sergio Ramon

“…Therefore, minimally processed peaches were subjected to HPP-treatment with different pressure levels (100, 300, 500 MPa) and holding times (1,5 min). Results showed that 300 and 500 MPa induced a significant increase in the antioxidant content, which can be partially linked to the increase in the extractability of these compounds brought about by the changes in the microstructure. …”
