Simulating farm structural change dynamics in Thessaly (Greece) using a recursive programming model
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/168681
Abstract
Although the policy impacts on farms accumulate year by year, most farm decision models focus on short-term decisions, evaluating policies based on snapshots. Structural changes are gradually built; therefore, farm decision models should consider the sequences within the period under study.

Root penetration is associated with root diameter and root growth rate in tropical forage grasses
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/170166
Abstract
Soil compaction impedes root exploration by plants, which limits access to nutrients and water, ultimately compromising survival. The capability of roots to penetrate hard soils is therefore advantageous. While root penetration has been studied in various annual crops, the relationships between root growth and root penetration are poorly understood in tropical perennial grasses. This study…
