Moscona & Sastry (2023, Quarterly Journal of Economics) - henceforth MS23 - find that cropland values are significantly less damaged by extreme heat exposure (EHE) when crops are more exposed to technological innovation. However, MS23's 'innovation exposure' variable does not measure innovation,...

In order to solve the problem of deteriorating soil health and the stagnation of yield in the rice-wheat-green gram cropping system (RWGCS) in Madwan Block, Muzaffarpur Bihar, from 2018 until 2023. The experiment included five crop scenarios based on conservation agriculture principles (CA),...

When the production or use of a product imposes a cost on a third party, this is referred to as a negative external cost. Negative external costs of pesticides are associated with social costs. However, there is still a lack of a systematic method for evaluating and internalize negative external...

Diversified farming systems have been promoted as a pathway to more sustainable agricultural production. Yet widescale adoption is slow partly due to doubts about the viability of farmer livelihoods on diversified farms and entrenched perceptions that monocultures are key to making farming...

Site-|specific management for irrigation purpose remains a great challenge especially within mixed cropping system due to complex correlations and the spatial variability of soil properties. This variability generates crop yield heterogeneity within agricultural fields. This study was conducted...

In this study, a meta-analysis was carried out to address the quantitative relevance of considering postharvest nitrous oxide (N 2 O) measurements in herbaceous crops (excluding rice) and using static chambers (i.e., noncontinuous measurements). We compiled data from 17 studies carried out in...

To verify an effective scheme for alleviating obstacles during continuous cropping, the effects of biofertilizer (BF) and water-soluble (WS) fertilizer applications on yield, quality, and soil properties were evaluated during the 2018-2019 growth seasons in fields continuously planted with sweet...
