Grapevine leafroll disease (GLRD) presently threatens the grape and wine industry worldwide. We develop a cellular … produces high-value wine grapes whereas the other produces low-value wine grapes. Disease management is modeled as a two …-agent bargaining game. We show that under nooncooperative disease management, it is optimal for neither vineyard manager to control the …

The grapevine leafroll disease (GLRD) threatens grape harvests in the United States and the world. This viral disease … reduces yield, delays fruit ripening, and affects wine quality. The disease ecology is still under study and the spatial … disease. In an effort to address this gap in the literature, we model GLRD diffusion in a vineyard and evaluate bioeconomic …

Research on climate change in recent decades has disproportionately focused on predicting impacts while largely ignoring adaptation strategies. How agricultural systems can adapt to minimize the uncertainty caused by rising temperatures is one of the most important research issues today. We...

Pathogens are a significant driver of biodiversity loss. We examine two wildlife disease management strategies that … have seen growing use, sometimes in combination: (i) trapping-and-culling infectious animals (disease control), and (ii … conservation when there is no disease. But, when infection exists, we show investing in the reserve may counteract disease control …

First, uncertainty about the disease status of … individual animals held in inventory may increase the incentives to trade relative to the disease-free case. Second, trade may … facilitate reduced long-run disease prevalence among buyers. These results arise because disease risks are endogenous due to …
