This research aims to explain the role of food processing in improving the sustainability of food security under the framework of 'Goal 2' associated with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The research methodology relied on descriptive and quantitative analysis methods, where the VAR...

High post-harvest losses of fruits and vegetables (FVs) limit their supply and availability for year-round consumption. Hence, processing innovations at their production areas could help address this constraint, which requires the need to assess people's perceptions in these areas. Therefore,...

We provide quantitative evidence on the relationship between military spending and innovation in the 19th century. Combining innovation data from world fairs and historical military data across Europe, we show that national military spending is associated with national innovation towards war...
