Food consumption is leaning toward products that provide both nutritional value and good flavor. In recent years, researchers have focused on how to scientifically analyze and evaluate foods’ nutritional and flavor qualities under different processing methods or parameters by various effect relationship analysis tools to investigate the internal relations between nutrients and flavor substances. However, during food processing, some unstable components may undergo degradation, volatilization, or secondary reactions due to changes in temperature, pressure, humidity, pH, etc., resulting in challenging research work with complex data variations in multiple dimensions.

The fruit production industry has been facing many challenges recently. For example, climate change, the introduction of new fruit-bearing species into production, traits of novel-bred fruit cultivars, innovations in orchard systems, rootstock/scion interactions, effects of fruit-growing technology and growing systems on yield, growing systems on yield, the appearance of new pathogens and pests, as well as birds and mammals in orchards, organic production, fruit quality and compounds, regulatory framework, high labour input, etc. Farmers need to have more up-to-date information and answers regarding these challenges. Modern fruit production is based on an adequate fruit-growing system, supported by many elements that complete this production.
This study provides evidence that firms adapt to macroeconomic, real, or financial economic uncertainty by decreasing their innovation activities. The way firms adapt is related to both internal factors such as patent types (exploratory versus exploitative patents), asset redeployability, patent assignments, and financial constraints, as well as external factors such as earnings pressure from myopic investors. The negative relationship with uncertainty is exaggerated by financial constraints and mitigated by redeployability while the detrimental effects of myopic investors on innovation are greatly dampened during periods of high economic uncertainty.

This book focuses on the question of whether and how civil society may contribute to policy innovation. As the focus of civil society research is often more on the constraints on civil society by the state and less on the agency and effects of civil society organisations the authors provide a fresh and fruitful perspective.
