And now up for the #EAAE2025 Congress in Bonn. Following the session of former colleague @juliahoehler.bsky.social on #OpenScience in AgEcon. So cool to see how Open Science is now evolving in the field.

The 2025 edition of our Summer SChool "Risk Analysis, Risk Management, and Resilience in Agriculture" takes place June 23-27 in Wageningen. We have a great team that teaches the ins and outs of measuring and managing risk, and fostering resilience in agriculture.

Highly recommended event for people working on the design of CAP policy instruments, farmers' behaviour and related topics: conference.idiv.de/event/2/
Call for abstracts open until 10 March.

In a new paper, we (Leon Englberger, Liesbeth Colen and myself) investigate Swedish farmers' acceptance of experiments. doi.org/10.1093/qope...

We do three things:

🚜 Farmers & Foresters🌳

We're running an experiment at Wageningen University & Research to explore how farmers and foresters make decisions in bio-based value chains. Your input can help strengthen the bioeconomy!

'Open science in agricultural economics'

New paper in Q Open with Arne Henningsen, Julia Höhler,
Robert Huber, Jens Rommel and Carola Grebitus.

Open Access: doi.org/10.1093/qope...

🚩New paper: How does firm ownership influence agri-food sustainability? We use PRISMA to review the literature. Results: Ownership has a mixed impact across sustainability dimensions. Firm goals, governance, capital structure and strategy are key.

In a new paper, we discuss some things we have learned from conducting experiments with farmers across multiple countries.

Congrats to Wageningen for winning the first WUR-SLU stocket market game in our parallel MSc finance courses! Hope we can make this a tradition! Starting capital of 100K was turned into median portfolios of 97.85K at WUR and 96.14K at SLU. Looking forward to next year! @juliahoehler.bsky.social

Farmers' adoption behaviour is often studied based on static models. We wanted to do differently and used the stage model of behavioural change to study Dutch farmers' adoption of GHG mitigation measures.
