Performance trends for NY dairy farms from 2018 to 2023
MacKenzie, Mary Kate (PRO-DAIRY, 2024-12)
In “Six Year Trend Analysis 2023,” author Jason Karszes presents characteristics of the 118 dairy farms that participated in the Cornell Dairy Farm Business Summary each year from 2018 to 2023.1 The report illustrates changes over time in key performance and financial metrics for a subset of the New York dairy industry and compares the top 25% most profitable farms to the remaining 75%. This article shares highlights from the data and explores possible drivers of success for individual farms while considering impacts of changes in the broader economic and regulatory environments.

Urban Heat and Social Vulnerability: A Mixed Methods Analysis of Planning Decisions and Thermal Inequality in Lahore, Pakistan
Malik, Noor (2024)
This study examines the relationship between urban planning decisions and heat vulnerability in Lahore, Pakistan, focusing on two contrasting areas: the high-density Jail Road district and the peripheral Airport area. Through a mixed-methods approach combining geospatial analysis, temperature monitoring, and ethnographic research conducted between March-August 2023, the study reveals significant temperature differentials (3.2°C ± 0.5°C) between the two areas, strongly correlated with building density (r² = 0.82). The research identifies marked disparities in adaptive capacity, with only 45% of Jail Road residents having access to air conditioning compared to 72% in the Airport area. Analysis of health impacts, energy consumption, and socioeconomic factors demonstrates how urban planning decisions intersect with social vulnerability to create compound heat risks. The findings emphasize the need for heat-sensitive urban planning policies and targeted interventions for vulnerable communities, contributing to broader discussions on climate justice and sustainable urban development in the Global South.
