The Water Energy Food nexus is a powerful topic in agricultural systems to elucidate threats biodiversity conservation and culture. This paper aimed recapitulate thinking research, focusing on social-ecological transitions of agriculture management within the Water-Energy-Food nexus. We developed systematic review bibliometric analysis derived from 529 documents Scopus database. ToS method identified total 81 relevant information sample (529) categorised into roots (10), trunks (9) leaves (62). situates types, focus, highlights regarding prevalent thematic research areas such as "Food Nexus", "Environmental Flows", "Sustainability", "Transitions", "Governance". Our results suggest that future should focus "Water-Energy-Food-Biodiversity" propose transdisciplinary approach state sustainability at landscape level.

Does Common Agricultural Policy Influence Regional Disparities and Environmental Sustainability in European Union Countries?

Agriculture, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(12), P. 2242 - 2242

Published: Dec. 7, 2024

This study examines the impact of European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) funds, specifically Fund for Rural Development (FEADR) and Guarantee (FEGA), on a range economic, social, environmental outcomes across regions. Utilizing Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS) estimators, this research analyses 13 equations corresponding to various dependent variables, including employment rates, poverty levels, agricultural productivity, indicators such as greenhouse gas emissions renewable energy production from agriculture. analysis covers period 2010 2021, draws upon balanced sample 301 observations ensure robust estimations. Results indicate that both FEADR FEGA payments significantly influence these regional outcomes, though effects vary depending specific economic or indicator examined. The findings reveal while positively rural employment, income, production, they are less effective in addressing reduction productivity enhancement. Conversely, exhibit stronger but have mixed sustainability. highlights significant disparities, suggesting allocation CAP funds is uneven its implications policymakers clear: more tailored approach required enhance effectiveness meeting diverse needs, particularly promoting development minimizing harm. also emphasizes need further explore alternative policy mechanisms innovative practices can bridge gaps identified current framework. Limitations include data availability inherent complexity systems, which may affect generalizability results different EU member states.

Effects of management strategies on animal welfare and productivity under heat stress: A synthesis

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 10

Published: March 15, 2023

Climate change includes different dramatic events, and among them, heat stress exposition is the strongest phenomenon affecting livestock sector. The effects of events on animal welfare are complex economic impacts for sector relevant. Management measures may contribute to improve resilience stress, but extent which they impact performances management strategies depend magnitude conditions. Through a pioneering synthesis existing knowledge from experiments conducted in controlled conditions, we show that strategies, both adaptation mitigation measures, halved negative ruminants' induced by efficacy low extreme turn more frequent. These novel findings emphasize need deepen research effective measures.

In order identify some regularities in this co-evolution, analysis is performed on a constant group professional farms over long enough time period. The Italian 2008-2019 FADN balanced sample here considered. Results points two major empirical implications. First all, they question actually accompanied by any significant farmers’ response. An exception may concern support specifically focused environmental standards. Secondly, raises methodological issues about applicability Treatment Effect logic assessment.

Farmers’ acceptance of the income stabilisation tool: a discrete choice experiment application

European Review of Agricultural Economics, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 50(4), P. 1520 - 1546

Published: July 24, 2023

Abstract The income stabilisation tool (IST) is the latest proposed by European Union (EU) to manage agricultural risks. It aims at stabilising farm compensating losses. Using a discrete choice experiment, this paper investigates grapevine farmers’ acceptance of IST in Croatia and tests whether behavioural factors such as risk preferences, probability weighting subjective probabilities related future explain new tool. Results suggest that there demand for IST. Pessimistic farmers are more likely participate than others, suggesting influence decisions about management.
