Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The Newfoundland Banks-Brazil trade in salted cod was a remarkable nineteenth-century phenomenon, a classic case of colonial staple commodity trade (though fishing carried out by ships from Lisbon off the consumption in Brazil rose from 0.4 pounds in 1819, to 2.8 pounds per capita in 1872, 2.0 pounds per capita in the 1890’s and 1,94 pounds per capita annually during 1911-1914. The supply or commodity chain had significant elements of market power. coast of Newfoundland dates back to the end of the fourteenth century). The region from Cape Cod to Labrador was the center of one of the New World’s first agro-food industries: the production of dried salted cod. Salted and dried cod (along with salted herring from the Baltic region) was among the first foods made “durable” by simple preservation techniques at the site of production (THOMPSON; COWAN, 1995). Cod fish from the Newfoundland region linked the poor fisherman using bait-lines with the African slaves toiling on the sugar plantations of the Brazilian Recôncavo and with Portuguese immigrants in Bahia during the early nineteenth century. The emphasis here is upon quantity not price data (any ways, the demand for salted cod is price inelastic, so supply changes lead to sharp price swings). Over a century (1819-1919) dried salted exports from Newfoundland to Brazil rose from 13,067 quintals to 310,036 quintals. Annual per capita dried cod

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
