Climate change has had a dramatic impact on many agrarian developing nations. For example, in 2009, the delay of the monsoon rains by a month in India affected several macroeconomic factors including food price increases, a stock market slump, agricultural product export restrictions, and an array of agricultural subsidies. Over the past decade, there has been a growing trend in the number of f...

The implications of the propagation of uncertainty for the e ciency of stochastic water pollution control were analyzed. The empirical analysis focused on nitrogen pollution of the Baltic Sea from Swedish crop farms. A two moment model (mean and variance) of the distribution of coastal load was developed and integrated with an economic model of arable land-use choice. It was shown that uncertai...

As a major cereal crop, rice (Oryza sativa L.) is crucial to food security for at least half the world population. New varieties with high yield potential, good quality and high resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses are needed in order to meet the demand for more food arising from the rapid human population growth and concurrent decrease in arable land. Improvement of rice quality has now b...

Relevance Concerns about the environmental impact of farming has increasingly been the focus of discussions in the EU. Croplands, a primary land use in Europe, have a significant impact on the environment (soil, water bodies, global climate, local biodiversity and human health). The use of fertilisers and pesticides associated with conventional farming may lead to pollution and/or climate chang...

Farmland biodiversity is strongly declining in most of Western Europe, but still survives in traditional low intensity agricultural landscapes in Central and Eastern Europe. Accession to the EU however intensifies agriculture, which leads to the vanishing of traditional farming. Our aim was to describe the pollinator assemblages of the last remnants of these landscapes, thus set the baseline of...
