Routledge Handbook of Evolutionary Economics

Routledge Handbook of Evolutionary Economics

While dating from post-Classical economists such as Thorstein Veblen and Joseph Schumpeter the inception of the modern field of evolutionary economics is usually dated to the early 1980s. Broadly speaking evolutionary economics sees the economy as undergoing continual evolutionary change. Evolutionary change indicates that these changes were not planned but rather were the result of innovations and selection processes. These often involved winners and losers but most importantly they resulted in actors learning what was and was not working. Evolutionary economics in contrast to mainstream economics emphasises the relevance of variables such as technology institutions decision rules routines or consumer preferences for explaining the complex evolutionary changes in the economy. In so doing evolutionary economics significantly broadens the scope of economic analysis and sheds new light on key concepts and issues of the discipline. This handbook draws on a stellar cast list of international contributors ranging from the founders of the field to the newest voices. The volume explores the current state of the art in the field of evolutionary economics at the levels of the micro (e. g. firms and households) meso (e. g. industries and institutions) and macro (e. g. economic policy structure and growth). Overall the Routledge Handbook of Evolutionary Economics provides an excellent overview of current trends and issues in this rapidly developing field.

Effects Conservation Tillage On Ground Water Quality Nitrates and Pesticides

Effects Conservation Tillage On Ground Water Quality Nitrates and Pesticides

Nowadays the environmental sustainability of the cropping systems is increasingly requested by the consumers. Conventional tillage practices totally turning over the soil between the vineyard rows may cause erosion due to rain as well as structure destruction of the soil in the long term. Conservation tillage is a soil management technique poorly widespread in Sardinia allowing cover cropping between vineyard rows. Furthermore this technique makes the canopy development control of herbage possible by cutting it up during specific phenological phases. Conservation tillage usually involves direct benefits to farmers such as increasing soil fertility as well as reductionof tillage costs soil erosion and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the atmosphere. This long term trial during at least five years aims to assess the conservation tillage impact on chemical-physical soil characteristics in comparison with traditional tillage by evaluating the change of organic matter C. E. C. and availability of major plant nutrients in the soil and to estimate their probable rise. The field plots are located in a 35% slope condition vineyard showing massive erosion problem and organic matter low content. A split/plot design with four replications was set up with the comparison between conservation and traditional tillage apart as main plots. Moreover the effects of two different irrigation levels were evaluated in the subplots of each main plot. At the beginning of the trial (2011) a pedological survey was made. Three soil profiles were described and sampled along the field slope and soil sampling in each plot were made both to characterize the soil and to find the zero point. The soil chemical and physical characteristics were monitored through a second soil sampling made at the end of 2013. Conservation tillage caused increasing organic matter content and C. E. C. values. As for major plant nutrients in soil results were more uncertain. Grapevine yield and quality parameters did not show any negative effect when passing from conventional to conservation tillage techniques. The trial provided a preliminary positive evaluation of conservation tillage. However more years are required to confirm this trend. | Effects Conservation Tillage On Ground Water Quality Nitrates and Pesticides
