The thesis aims to investigate the role of local lead firms in the transformation of smallholders’ technological capabilities towards sustainable agriculture production through the lens of global value chain governance. The technological capabilities that help smallholders adopt and apply sustainable agriculture practices and comply with sustainability standards are related to production, investme
The relationship between field measurements of vegetation in a semi arid region and NDVI from the 1 km NOAA AVHRR was investigated within this study. The Hoanib catchment in the northwestern Namibia was chosen as study area. The field measurements were carried out during the month of February 1999. Different NDVI values and combinations of NDVI were used and it was found that the integrated NDVI u
This paper has its starting point with the discrepancy between the ICPD Plan of Action and the Millennium Development Goals with regards to their separate emphasis on the importance of family planning services as a reproductive health component. The population problem can be looked upon from various theoretical schools. This paper examines the sharply contrasting views of economists, on the one ha
Results of a search for gluino pair production with subsequent R-parity-violating decays to quarks are presented. This search uses 36.1 fb−1 of data collected by the ATLAS detector in proton–proton collisions with a centre-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV at the LHC. The analysis is performed using requirements on the number of jets and the number of jets tagged as containing a b-hadron as well as a top
A search for Higgs boson pair production in the bb¯ bb¯ final state is carried out with up to 36.1 fb−1 of LHC proton-proton collision data collected at s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector in 2015 and 2016. Three benchmark signals are studied: a spin-2 graviton decaying into a Higgs boson pair, a scalar resonance decaying into a Higgs boson pair, and Standard Model non-resonant Higgs boson pair produ
Consumers are increasingly becoming aware of the abusive exploitation of workers in some of the factories in the development countries that are contracted to produce exports to the European market. Thus, some of the consumers try to promote the enforcement of ethical business practices globally by using their buying behaviour. In effect, the ethical consumers prefer to buy ethically sound goods to

Popular Abstract in Swedish Oberoende av om det är i ett samhälle, datornätverk eller organen i en mänsklig kropp, så är behovet av kommunikation stort i en komplex miljö. Eftersom den komplicerade människokroppen är beroende av kommunikation för att reglera funktioner, skickas otaliga mängder signaler oavbrutet. För att signalerna skall vara meningsfulla så måste de kunna tas emot och behandlas. Intercellular communication is of crucial importance in regulating physiology and G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) have evolved as an important mechanism in this process. Of the approximately 800 human GPCRs, about 160 are still considered to be “orphan” receptors for which an endogenous ligand remains to be identified. Since an estimated 50% of all clinical drugs act on 30 known GPCRs, the rem
This paper quantitatively analyzes the importance of taste versus health in food demand, as well as the effect on consumers’ experienced taste of the non-intrinsic value of healthy labels. Our analysis is based on taste experiments and Vickrey second price auctions on potato chips and bread. Our findings imply a large positive effect on demand for potato chips from higher taste scores: when consum
The Swedish Dementia Registry (SveDem) was developed with the aim to improve the quality of diagnostic work-up, treatment and care of patients with dementia disorders in Sweden.
