Marginal land has received wide attention for its potential to produce bioenergy feedstocks
while minimizing diversion of productive agricultural land from food crop production …

To date, no study has investigated the role of spatial spillovers in the technical efficiency of
farmer cooperatives. This study addresses this issue by employing a two‐stage approach …

This paper examines the role of peer effects on farmers' decision to adopt Unmanned Aerial
Vehicles (UAVs). This relationship is analysed by means of a Bayesian spatial …

The adoption of improved crop varieties, such as drought‐tolerant varieties, plays a crucial
role in addressing climate change. In this study, we explore how and to what extent spatial …

Absolute farm numbers all over the world have been decreasing over time, and in many
countries, this is a source of concern for rural communities. In particular, the Murray-Darling …

This article presents a novel modeling framework that quantifies spatial spillovers on firm
total factor productivity (TFP) growth and its components in a single‐stage setting. A random …

Abstract Nitrate nitrogen (NO 3−-N) from agricultural activities and in industrial wastewater
has become the main source of groundwater pollution, which has raised widespread …

Scientific evidence suggests earthquakes occurring in Oklahoma since 2009 are not “acts of
God”, but very likely triggered by wastewater injection in disposal wells by oil and gas (O&G) …

This study extends the generalized true random-effects model to account for spatial
dependence in persistent and transient inefficiency. For this purpose, a model with spatially …

The lack of farmers' willingness to grow perennial bioenergy crops (PBCs) presents a critical
barrier to the emergence of cellulosic biofuel production. The willingness relies on a …
