A recent analysis by the World Meteorological Organization concluded that uptake of climate forecasts by agricultural communities has been low due to lack of a clear understanding of their needs and insufficient interaction and communications among all involved stakeholders.California’s past history suggests that agriculture has the capacity to effectively transition to new climate regimes with economic …

Atmospheric particulate matter within the San Joaquin Valley is correlated with annual precipitation patterns , possibly suggesting that this relationship led to increased CCN, less atmospheric scrubbing , or a feedback between the two. Agriculture is an important source of dust in California. However, the amounts of dust can be reduced by employing conservation or minimum tillage …

The effective tracking rate for each KLPS round is around 85 percent.Similar to the IFLS, the KLPS includes detailed information on educational attainment, labor market participation, and migration choices. Employment data was collected in a wage employment module and a self-employment module, which both are designed to include both formal and informal employment. Most individuals …

For cases and all controls, we examined the agreement between exposures during the first year of life assigned to birth residence and those assigned to LexisNexis addresses. Restricting to cases diagnosed at or after 1 year of age, we assessed the level of agreement between exposures assigned to birth residence and those assigned to diagnosis …
Subsequent state and federal legislation has allowed for the formation of related types of organizations. MMOs were designed to mitigate the “disruption of the orderly exchange of commodities” and protect the “value of agricultural assets which support the national credit structure.” . The continued presence in today’s U.S. Code of these justifications and others first …

Experiments were performed under oxic and anoxic conditions to constrain the influence of oxygen on Se reduction. Different concentrations of organic carbon sources and selenate were examined since they are key limiting factors for microbial Se reduction. Temporally resolved data on selenate and selenite concentrations at the reactor outflow and spatially resolved data on solid …
Mandatory mediation did not usher in a new era for farm labor relations because unions requested and won few elections, the first step to invoke the procedure. Unions do not request secret-ballot elections until they feel confident they will win, and they gauge their support by persuading workers to sign union authorization cards that express …

Despite this, some chemical treatments have been effective. For example, methyl anthranilate, a common food additive, is used as a biodegradable non-toxic bird repellant for grapes and berries. One study showed a decrease in crop loss by 88% to 99% when crops were treated with methyl anthranilate . However, in another study, methyl anthranilate was …
Measuring and predicting temperature accurately is challenging due to variation across farm micro-climates where local temperature can deviate from the surrounding area which is typically measured at mesoscale. Measuring temperature for a large number of micro-climates on a farm can be prohibitively expensive with extant weather stations and sensors . In this chapter, we explore …
Community Supported Agriculture appeals to an increasing number of people. In recent decades, CSA farm and member numbers have grown rapidly in the United States and in California’s Central Valley and foothills. CSA numbers in our study area grew from a few in the early 1990s to 74 in 2010. The loss of 28 CSAs found …
