In response to the rapid increase in the world population and the corresponding increase in global demand for food and agricultural products, driven by urbanization and income growth, there is a pressing need to develop more resilient and sustainable agricultural and food systems (Calicioglu et al., 2019). To attain this ultimate goal, a greater quantity of high-quality data and more extensive research will be needed. Although there is existing evidence on the impact of various factors on agriculture and food availability in different settings, a considerable amount of uncertainty still surrounds these issues, leaving many aspects unknown. This uncertainty can be attributed to the inherent complexity of these problems, which demand a holistic, systems-thinking approach for in-depth analysis and effective solutions. This dissertation addresses two such concerns in the United States: municipal solid waste (MSW) generation and pesticide resistance, both presenting distinct challenges that demand effective and innovative solutions. It comprises two papers, with the first focusing on an experimental study exploring informational interventions to encourage households to recycle organic materials, and the second presenting empirical models on understanding farmers' management practices in response to emerging pesticide-resistant soybean aphid.
