Extreme weather events risk to crop-production and the adaptation of innovative management strategies to mitigate the risk: A retrospective survey of rural Punjab, Pakistan
TL;DR: In this paper, a survey of 1232 wheat growers from Pakistan, conducted in April and May of 2019, was used to estimate the production risk of wheat farms to weather shocks and the effectiveness of physical, non-physical, and innovative management strategies for reducing crop damages.

Model Selection and Akaike's Information Criterion (AIC): The General Theory and Its Analytical Extensions.
TL;DR: In this article, the entropy-based information criterion (AIC) has been extended in two ways without violating Akaike's main principles: CAIC and CAICF, which make AIC asymptotically consistent and penalize overparameterization more stringently.

Sascha O. Becker,Andrea Ichino +1 more
TL;DR: The authors give a short overview of some propensity score matching estimators suggested in the evaluation literature, and provide a set of Stata programs, which they illustrate using the Naïve Bayes algorithm.

Production effects related to mastitis and mastitis economics in dairy cattle herds.
TL;DR: To support decision making for udder health control, it is necessary to use a marginal approach, based on the comparison of the losses avoided and the additional costs of modified plans, compared to the existing ones.
