Can differences in individual learning explain patterns of technology adoption? Evidence on heterogeneous learning patterns and hybrid rice adoption in Bihar, India por Gars, Jared, Ward, Patrick S.

“…Linking these learning heuristics with observed use of rice hybrids, we demonstrate that pure Bayesian learning is well suited for the tinkering and marginal adjustments that would be required to learn about a technology like hybrid rice, but is also more cognitively taxing, requiring a longer memory and more complex updating processes. …”

The sodium transporter encoded by the HKT1;2 gene modulates sodium/potassium homeostasis in tomato shoots under salinity por Jaime-Perez, Noelia, Pineda, Benito, Garcia-Sogo, Begona, Atares, Alejandro, Athman, Asmini, Byrt, Caitlin S., Olias, Raquel, Asins, María J., Gilliham, Matthew, Moreno, Vicente, Belver, Andres

“…Here, we determine the effectiveness of these genes in conferring improved salt tolerance by using two near-isogenic lines (NILs) that were homozygous for either the Solanum lycopersicum allele (NIL17) or for the Solanum cheesmaniae allele (NIL14) at both HKT1 loci; transgenic lines derived from these NILs in which each HKT1;1 and HKT1;2 had been silenced by stable transformation were also used. Silencing of ScHKT1;2 and SlHKT1;2 altered the leaf Na+/K+ ratio and caused hypersensitivity to salinity in plants cultivated under transpiring conditions, whereas silencing SlHKT1;1/ScHKT1;1 had a lesser effect. …”

Kvaliteter för högstadieskolgårdar : exemplet Strandängsskolan i Båstad por Hermander, Matilda

“…The study showed that school grounds are appreciated by secondary school students, but if they are less suited to the students’ perspectives it can result in students staying indoors during the breaks. Gained knowledge about the students perspectives can contribute to that the school grounds in a better way can support secondary school students’ health and development.…”

Modern input promotion in sub-Saharan Africa: Insights from Asian green revolution por Rashid, Shahidur, Dorosh, Paul A., Malek, Mehrab, Lemma, Solomon

“…Results suggest that Asian policies differ from the current wave of African input subsidy programs in three important ways: (i) instead of focusing mostly on seed and chemical fertilizer, input promotion in Asia involved a package approach involving investments in agricultural R&D, irrigation, promotion of domestic fertilizer, and investments in rural roads; (ii) farmers in three of four countries paid higher prices (net taxed) for fertilizer during the height of the green revolution, suggesting that it was the profitability, not the subsidy, that was central to increasing fertilizer use; and (iii) Asian countries did not target input subsidies, but given leakage and diversion estimates of targeted programs, it is unclear whether targeting would have been more cost‐effective. …”

The technical mitigation potential of demand-side measures in the agri-food sector: a preliminary assessment of available measures por Kiff, Laura, Wilkes, Andreas, Tennigkeit, Timm

“…Often discussed demand-side measures include ‘soft’ measures (e.g. health promotion initiatives, product labeling) and ‘hard’ measures (e.g. consumption taxes or subsidies). We review here the effectiveness of these measures for dietary change and reductions in food loss and waste, with a focus on developing countries, where agrifood emissions are projected to grow most rapidly and where the gaps in knowledge are largest. …”
