We demonstrated that the establishment of seed garden under natural pollination is possible and produces a sufficient amount of hybrid seeds to be multiplied efficiently and economically.

  • TRADITIONAL RETAILERS by ALISON ROSENBLUM BA
    SPECIALTY COFFEE EXPANSION IN TRADITIONAL RETAIL: LESSONS FROM NON- TRADITIONAL RETAILERS by ALISON ROSENBLUM B.A., Hamilton College, 1994 A THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF AGRIBUSINESS Department of Agricultural Economics College of Agriculture KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2015 Approved by: Major Professor Dr. Vincent Amanor-Boadu ABSTRACT Despite at least three waves of transformations in the US coffee retail market, traditional retailers have not altered their merchandizing approaches for decades. This may be due primarily to the fact that there are still margins being made in selling canned coffee, the initial coffee wave in this research. Yet, because of their significant role in the retail segment, traditional retailers cannot be ignored by coffee suppliers. This implies that with each shift in the coffee industry, it is important for the participants to find ways of enabling the traditional retailer to make the necessary transformation – at least with their products – so that they can secure their market share and their continuing success. The research develops a number of case studies of different coffee retailers who are developing innovative processes for merchandizing new coffee formats, such as Keurig K- Cups and Ready to Drink (RTD) products. The research shows that coffee merchandizers can learn from these retailers to develop support programs for their traditional retail customers to leverage their importance in the coffee market to enhance their own sales and profitability. We identify a number of value innovation strategies that may be used to achieve this objective of enhancing performance in traditional coffee merchandizing.

María Bobadilla Pérez Universidade da Coruña, España ORCID: https://orcid.org/ 0000-0002-4972-5980 Transpopular Spaces: Gypsy Imageries in the Work of Van Morrison Resumen La obra del autor norirlandés Van Morrison ha pasado relativamente desapercibida por la crítica a pesar de los numerosos elementos sociales, literarios y artísticos que presenta. Entre ellos se encuentra la representación de la figura del gitano como modelo de actuación para unas generaciones de oyentes a quienes les preocupaba el aspecto cultural a la contra, así como los modelos de vida alternativos a los legitimados por la clase media de la época. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar el componente romantizado que se presenta en la obra de Morrison alrededor de su representación del gitanismo, así como observar cómo esos elementos generan primero una función deontologizante y después una resignificación de los espacios en tránsito ocupados por la(s) imaginación(es) de esta comunidad como pueblo nómada. Para llevar a cabo el análisis se atenderá a varias canciones de la primera época del autor norirlandés, y se explicarán las funciones de representación del gitano en el entorno del espacio y de una epistemología contracultural. Palabras clave: Van Morrison; espacio; gitanos; contracultura; música Abstract The work of Northern Irish singer-songwriter Van Morrison has gone relatively unnoticed by critics despite the numerous social, literary and artistic elements included in his songs.

    Revised Pages Excerpted from Tracy C. Davis and Stefka Mihaylova, eds., Journal of Transnational American Studies 11.2 (2020) Uncle Tom’s Cabins: A Transnational History of America’s Most Mutable Book (Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press, 2018). Copyright 2018 by Tracy C. Davis and Stefka Mihaylova. Reprinted with permission from University of Michigan Press. Kahlil Chaar- Pérez The Bonds of Translation: A Cuban Encounter with Uncle Tom’s Cabin Trough numerous translations, adaptations, and performances, mid- nineteenth- century sentimental communities across the world embraced Harriet Beecher Stowe’s plea in Uncle Tom’s Cabin to “feel right” in op- posing chattel slavery as “a system which confounds and confuses every principle of Christianity and morality” (452– 53). Although the British and French governments had already abolished it, slavery was still rampant in the United States, Brazil, and the Spanish colonies of Cuba and Puerto Rico during the 1850s, while serfdom subsisted in Russia. Moved by the novel’s afecting depiction of the horrors of enslavement, a transatlantic public coalesced around the universalist moral values through which Stowe ex- pressed her call for abolition: “See, then, to your sympathies in this mat- ter! Are they in harmony with the sympathies of Christ? or [sic] are they swayed and perverted by the sophistries of world policy?” (452). In the Protestant brand of sentimentalism found throughout Uncle Tom’s Cabin, the experience of sympathizing with the enslaved other is circumscribed within a pre- ideological order of feelings. In the pursuit of a “right” feeling determined by the universal spirit of “Christianity,” the ideal sympathetic subject is able to transcend the artifcial divisions fostered by the politi- cal sphere (“world policy”).
