Social capital in cooperatives: an evolutionary Luhmannian perspective

Vladislav Valentinov et al.

Summary: This paper explores the decline of social capital resources in agricultural cooperatives, arguing from a systems-theoretic perspective that the capitalist economic system is limited in its responsiveness to human needs. Cooperatives, through their codification effect, are able to incorporate mutual self-help activities into the economic system, leading to intrasystemic adjustment processes.

The benefits and limitations of agricultural input cooperatives in Zambia

Jordan Blekking et al.

Summary: Agricultural cooperatives in Southern Africa are seen as a way for policymakers to provide direct benefits to smallholder farmers, such as subsidized agricultural inputs. Membership in cooperatives is associated with higher maize yields and increased use of hybrid-maize seed and fertilizers, indicating potential advantages for smallholders. However, there are concerns about inclusivity and whether the poorest rural households are being left out of cooperative membership, potentially widening the rural poverty gap.

Do farmer groups improve the situation of women in agriculture in rural Kenya?

Rose Ingutia et al.

Summary: The study finds that membership in farmer groups and land ownership have a positive impact on women farmers' participation and decision to join the groups, while factors like access to credit and limited decision-making power have a negative impact on their decision. Additionally, years of membership in a farmer group and ownership of mobile phones have a positive effect on crop yield, while lack of credit negatively affects crop yield. Farmer groups are an effective platform for improving crop yields and other constraints facing female farmers, yet they are underutilized.

Stronger temperature-moisture couplings exacerbate the impact of climate warming on global crop yields

Corey Lesk et al.

Summary: Climate change is projected to modify temperature-moisture couplings and potentially worsen the impacts of warming on key global crops. Rising air temperatures pose a significant risk to global crop production, with the sensitivity of crops to heat depending on the strength of temperature-moisture couplings in the climate system. However, the impact of these changes on crop yields is highly uncertain in some regions, highlighting the need for robust adaptation strategies to address the underappreciated risk to food production from climate change.

DOES EDUCATION REALLY IMPROVE HEALTH? A META-ANALYSIS

Xindong Xue et al.

Summary: A meta-analysis of nearly a hundred studies revealed a moderate publication bias towards the positive effects of education on health, but in reality, education seems to have almost no discernible benefits to health. The reported estimates on the effects of education can largely be explained by factors such as controlling for endogeneity, types of data, and differences in health measurements.
