Market Strategies

Potatoes suitable for frozen french fries are harvested in the fall and then apportioned for the rest of the year by processors. This involves storage in either fresh or frozen form. Participants in both the fresh and french fry market consider the level of frozen french fry stocks to be an important determinant of activity in these markets and therefore use stock information to form price expectations [Phillips et al., 16–18]. The ability to forecast the future level of stocks with some accuracy would undoubtedly be an additional aid in developing market strategies. This paper provides one means of forecasting frozen french fry stocks.

The effect of three field heat reduction methods, including temperature lowering stepwise (TLS), temperature lowering gradually (TLG), and temperature lowering immediately (TLI), after harvesting on the quality of Russet Norkotah 3 and red skin numbered line CO 07102-1R potatoes were investigated. The tubers were analyzed at harvest (0 time), when they reached 3 °C, and after 6 months of storage at 3 °C for physiological weight loss, firmness, wound healing, total phenolics content, reducing sugars, and color of french fries. The results indicated that weight and firmness losses were lower under the TLS reduction method after 6 months of storage than TLG and TLI methods. The weight loss in TLS is 12%, TLG 14% and TLI 17% in CO 07102-1R whereas Russet Norkotah TLS is 4%, TLG 6%, and TLI 8% respectively. Wound healing was more effective using the TLS reduction method, especially in Russet Norkotah 3. French fry color was lighter at harvest (USDA grade 0), while there were no differences in the color of French fries prepared from tubers stored under the TLS and TLG methods (both had USDA grade 2). French fries were darker for tubers from the TLI method (USDA grade 4). The total phenolic content and reducing sugars were significantly increased in the TLI field heat reduction method.

Definition Of

A survey was conducted of 730 Spanish households to identify culinary practices which might influence acrylamide formation during the domestic preparation of french fries and their compliance with the acrylamide mitigation strategies described in the 2017/2158 Regulation. Spanish household practices conformed with the majority of recommendations for the selection, storing and handling of potatoes, with the exception of soaking potato strips. Olive oil was the preferred frying oil (78.7%) and frying pans were the most common kitchen utensils used for frying (79.0%), leading to a higher oil replacement rate than with a deep-fryer. Although frying temperature was usually controlled (81.0%), participants were unaware of the maximum temperature recommended for preventing acrylamide formation. For french fries, color was the main criteria when deciding the end-point of frying (85.3%). Although a golden color was preferred by respondents (87.3%), color guidelines are recommended in order to unify the definition of “golden.” The results conclude that habits of the Spanish population are in line with recommendations to mitigate acrylamide during french fry preparation. Furthermore, these habits do not include practices that risk increasing acrylamide formation. Nevertheless, educational initiatives tailored towards consumers would reduce the formation of this contaminant and, consequently, exposure to it in a domestic setting.

Abstract Previous studies provide conflicting evidence on the degree to which Federal Reserve surveys of agricultural bankers provide useful information on the future direction of farm real estate values. We use unbalanced panel of responses from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago’s Land Values and Credit Conditions Survey between 1993Q1 and 2019Q2 to empirically test adaptive, rational and extrapolative expectations. We find that respondents extrapolate recent farmland price experiences but are overly cautious, as observed farmland price changes tend to be greater than expected. This is the first study of individual farmland price expectations collected by Federal Reserve surveys of agricultural bankers.

Let’s begin at the 88th session of the NY Cleantech Funders Forum.1 It is 9 a.m. in a windowless conference room on the 31st floor of a skyscraper in midtown Manhattan. Fifteen cleantech professionals—investors, lawyers, entrepreneurs, brokers—sit around a large table, at the head of which stand two entrepreneurs, ready to make an investment pitch for their product, the Vegawatt. The Vegawatt is a waste-to-energy technology targeting small, fast food restaurants. It converts used fry grease into fuel for a combined heat and power diesel generator, which in turn produces hot water and electricity. Waste in, energy out. The graphic on the first slide in the presentation shows a green electrical cord plugged into a French fry, which is positioned next to their sales line: “Out of the deep fryer, into your pocket!”...

Storage Behavior

This research aimed to determine the yield performance and post-harvest storage behavior of potato Cultivars with different maturing groups under Isparta conditions at 2018. In this study, Agria, Agata, Alegria, Desiree, Granola, Hermes, Lady Anna, Marabel, Morphona and Russet Burbank potato Cultivars, which were widely cultivated in Turkey, were used. After determining the yield performance of cultivars under field conditions, tuber samples taken from each cultivar were stored at 6-8°C for 6 months. Tuber yields of Cultivars varied between 2860-5331 kg/da and vegetation period ranged between 97.7-146.6 days. In the storage period, the time taken to break the dormancy in 50% of the tubers ranged between 23.3-111.6 days, and dormancy was broken earlier in the early season Cultivars. At the end of the 6 months storage period, it was determined that the Cultivars lost weight between 4.13-6.48%. Starch ratios, reducing sugar content and French fries yields varied depending on the storage time of the cultivars, but generally decreased during storage period. There were significant changes in the quality of French fry and table stock. In the storage period Cultivars with low dry matter ratio which are not suitable for the French fries industry and the Cultivars with early characteristics had higher weight and quality losses in storage. It was concluded that dormancy duration, maturing characteristics of potato Cultivars had a significant effect on storage quality, and therefore, storage period should be determined by taking into account the varietal characteristics in potato storage.

Using Data

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze whether family support, measured through the labor status of parents and the presence of both parents in the household during adolescence, may be an important determinant of unemployment in Spain. Design/methodology/approach To address this issue, we follow the Quantity-Quality model of Becker–Lewis (Becker and Lewis, 1973), using data from the Survey of Living Conditions (2011). Findings First, the results show that individuals living with both parents at home during their teenage years are less likely to be unemployed in the future. Second, the authors find evidence of the intergenerational transmission of unemployment outcomes, and that the unemployment status of the mother is strongly transferred to the child. Additionally, the authors extend this work to an analysis of other labor characteristics, finding that family support is an important determinant of self-employment and temporary employment. The findings are robust to controls for observable and unobservable characteristics by region, and to the use of different subsamples. Originality/value This study can be considered as first evidence of the effect of family support during adolescence on the Spanish labor market.

This study examines the effect of impression management on the reactions ofindividual decision-makers in the presence of positive or negative information.In a stock price prediction task void of impression management, inexperiencedinvestors had a more pessimistic expectation for the future stock price whenunfavorable financial results were presented than when favorable financialresults were presented or when investment experience was present. Predictionswere also consistent with the theory of diminishing marginal sensitivity. Impressionmanagement in the form of management commentary significantly shiftedstock price expectations in the loss domain but did not affect reactions in thedomain of gains. The results were consistent across prior investment experiencefor both the reaction to diminishing marginal sensitivity and impression management.
