Why do farmers quit from grain production in China? Causes and implications
Publisher: Emerald
Date: 31-08-2012
DOI: 10.1108/17561371211263365
Abstract: The number of farms engaged in grain production in China has been declining in recent years. Limited efforts have been devoted to examine why producers quit from grain production and how such exits affect China's grain output. Such information, however, is invaluable in understanding whether the exit from grain production should be encouraged and if so, how. The purpose of this paper is to identify the factors that influence farmers' decision to quit from grain production, with a view to drawing implications for devising policies to deal with such exits. Both descriptive statistics and econometric techniques are used to analyse a set of unique and comprehensive farm‐level survey data to identify key factors that affect farmers' decision to quit from grain production. Key factors that influence a farm to quit from, or stay in, grain production include: family size, the share of farming labour out of total family labour, per capita arable land, the proportion of land used for grain production, the share of family income from grains. It was also found that the level of grain prices and the sunk cost in farming, chiefly in grain production, also affect the likelihood that a household will stay or exit from grain production. Further, farmers in more economically developed regions are more likely to quit from grain production. The paper's findings clearly indicate that farms with a larger scale of grain production and earning higher income from grain are the major contributors to China's grain production. Potential exists for China to raise its total grain output if the land from those exiting farmers is readily made available to larger producers, enabling them to further benefit from the economies of scale.

Abstract: Potential demand for consumer goods and services is enormous in China. Turning such potential into real effective demand will play a crucial role in sustaining China’s future economic growth. Based on most recent consumption data of major categories of goods and services by consumers of different income groups, this study empirically evaluates the potential of the market for goods and services in China using the panel data of 18 provinces over the period 2002–2012. The results indicate that (1) compared to developed countries, Chinese urban residents have much potential for consuming goods including medical care, transportation and communication, education and entertainment (2) the profile of the expenditure elasticity for necessities such as food change is hump-shaped. Residents in middle-income groups are more income-elastic than the low- and high-income groups (3) expenditure elasticity of medical care decreases as income level rises, while the trends of transportation and communication, education and entertainment share a similar profile across income groups.

Agricultural green efficiency and productivity incorporating waste recycling
Publisher: Wiley
Date: 27-04-2022
Abstract: This paper analyses agricultural green efficiency and productivity by using the farming and livestock industries as case studies. To do so, nitrogen and phosphorus surpluses in arable land are measured by considering recycling of agricultural wastes in the farming and livestock ecosystem and defined as the undesirable output in agricultural production. The empirical analysis is based on data of rural areas in Anhui province, China, over the period of 2000 to 2017. It shows the existence of considerable nitrogen and phosphorus nutrient surplus in arable land, with phosphorus surplus keeps increasing. It also illustrates that nitrogen and phosphorus nutrients from manure were decreasing while those from the crop residues were increasing. The empirical assessment demonstrates that agricultural green efficiency tended to converge over time. Furthermore, agricultural green total factor productivity showed an overall increasing trend, although its components, efficiency change and technological progress, moved in opposite directions in most years. Finally, some useful policy recommendations are provided in this paper.

Abstract: Profitability provides a yardstick for judging the operational efficiency, growth, and survival of a business enterprise. This study investigates the determinants of firm profitability in the Chinese manufacturing sector, with a focus on the impact of foreign entry on the profitability of domestic firms. Our findings show an inverted-U relationship between foreign entry and the profitability of domestic firms. Furthermore, we also find that the effect of foreign entry on domestic firm profitability varies according to the ownership structure of domestic firms and the export intensity of foreign newcomers.
Consumer-perceived risks of genetically modified food in China
Publisher: Elsevier BV
Date: 04-2020
DOI: 10.1016/J.APPET.2019.104520
Abstract: This paper analyses the factors influencing consumer-perceived risks of genetically modified (GM) food by using a structural equation model and survey data of urban residents in China. The s le is ided into the acquainted and unacquainted groups according to consumers' objective knowledge level. An integrated analytical framework is developed. The results show that consumers' positive attitude towards GM technology has a significant negative effect on consumer-perceived risks and that more information reaching consumers significantly reduces consumer-perceived risks of GM food only for the unacquainted group. Consumers' trust in government, biotechnology scientists, press media and food companies does not significantly influence consumer-perceived risks of GM food. This is likely because consumers have low trust in the abovementioned stakeholders of GM food. Consumers think that the information reaching them is limited and does not clearly show the advantages and disadvantages of GM food. Consumers' objective knowledge of GM food is also limited. The health risks of GM food are of high concern for both consumer groups. These findings imply that the commercialization of GM crops in China is dependent on providing consumers with adequate and understandable information about GM food and strict supervision measures for food safety.

Can relationship bring more provision in rural public goods? Empirical evidence from rural China
Publisher: Emerald
Date: 06-02-2017
DOI: 10.1108/CAER-07-2016-0098
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to investigate how different types of the village relationship influence different types of public goods provision in rural China. The three components (clan-based relationship, neighborhood relationship and external relationship) were derived by employing factor analysis. The simultaneous discrete choice model was used to estimate the influence of these components on public goods provision, using the survey data from the China Household Income Project conducted in 2007. The findings indicate that considering different components of village relationship allows for a better understanding of the public good provision. The results indicate that the neighborhood relationship has a significantly positive effect on rural public goods provision, particularly on water conservancy and irrigation, while the external relationship has a significantly positive effect on all types of public goods. Local public goods provision is the core of the new rural construction in China. These findings imply that relationship in villages plays a vital role in the provision of public goods and is necessary in the construction of the new harmonious countryside in China. The results also have implications for rural public goods provision in other developing countries. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to quantitatively model the impact of different relationships on public goods provision at the rural level. A consideration of the different components in village relationship allows for a more precise understanding of the pubic goods provision in the village.

Abstract: International collaboration is considered to exert a positive effect on research performance. However, the impact of international collaboration on the performance of research institutions is under-documented. This paper fills the void in the literature by utilizing InCites data of 1,067 Chinese research organizations. The main results show that international collaboration promotes the performance of research organizations in general, but the effect varies according to the types of institutions. The organizations in less-developed regions are more affected by international collaborations than those in developed regions. The empirical results also demonstrate that the United States is the most important scientific collaborator of China.

Abstract: This paper aims to investigate the effects of the share of domestic value added in exports on firm‐level emission intensity in China. It shows that the ratio of domestic value added in exports is negatively associated with firms' emission discharges. This relation is more profound for firms in ordinary trade than those in processing trade. Further analysis illustrates that the observed relationship is especially prevalent in eastern regions, technology‐intensive industries and non‐state‐owned firms.

The Impacts of Globalization on Inequality in the Post-COVID-19 World: Evidence From China
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
Date: 29-11-2021
DOI: 10.3389/FPUBH.2021.790312
Abstract: Empirical studies suggest that globalization (FDI and international trade) has been greatly affected by the COVID-19 and related anti-pandemic measures imposed by governments worldwide. This paper investigates the impact of globalization on intra-provincial income inequality in China and the data is based on the county level. The findings reveal that FDI is negatively associated with intra-provincial inequality, intra-provincial inequality increases as the primary industry sector (agriculture) declines. The result also finds that the increase in inequality stems not from the development in the tertiary or secondary industry sectors per se, but the unevenness in the distribution of these sectors.
Fiscal Decentralization and Local Environmental Pollution in China
Publisher: MDPI AG
Date: 21-11-2020
Abstract: Fiscal decentralization is one of the tools for the central government to engage local governments in environment management. However, its effects are inconclusive. This paper aims to examine the impact of fiscal decentralization on environmental pollution and the role of government environmental preference in China’s provinces. The results show that fiscal revenue decentralization exacerbates local environmental pollution more seriously than expenditure decentralization. This negative environmental effect of fiscal decentralization could be moderated by government environmental preference. Based on our findings, it is recommended that China’s local governments should improve environmental preference so that fiscal decentralization can create a win–win situation for the economy and environment. Furthermore, the different effects of fiscal revenue and expenditure decentralization create a necessity for differentiated management of fiscal decentralization by the central and local governments.

Abstract: The emergence of production networks has changed the structure of international trade, which is characterized by a large share of intra-regional trade flows and a rising value of intermediate goods trade or network trade between countries within the same region. This paper investigates the change in impact of trade determinants with the formation of regional production networks. At the global level, the results show that intermediate goods exports are more sensitive to trade barriers than total goods exports. At the regional level, the comparison reveals that, despite the efforts directed toward export market ersification in East Asia, the region is still more dependent on other regions’ economic conditions than the European Union is.

Analysis of farmers’ willingness to adopt genetically modified insect-resistant rice in China
Publisher: Emerald
Date: 05-09-2016
DOI: 10.1108/CAER-08-2015-0102
Abstract: Genetically modified (GM) crops, particularly GM grain crops, have been controversial since their commercialization in 1996. However, only a few studies have investigated farmers’ attitudes toward adopting GM grain crops in China. The purpose of this paper is to explore farmers’ willingness to adopt GM insect-resistant rice prior to its commercial release in China and determines the factors that affect farmers’ prospective adoption decisions. The data are collected using a questionnaire. Descriptive statistics are used to analyze the farmers’ potential willingness to adopt GM rice and level of awareness of GM rice and socioeconomic characteristics. Ordered and binary probit models are applied to identify the key factors that affect the farmers’ decision to adopt GM insect-resistant rice. Descriptive statistics show that most farmers have little knowledge of GM rice, approximate 35.5 percent of farmers could plant GM rice, and over half of the respondents are uncertain whether or not they will adopt the new crops. The results of econometric analyses show that increasing output and income, and simplicity in crop management, have positive effects on prospective adoption, whereas the high-seed price of GM rice has a significantly negative effect. Health implications also have a significantly positive effect on the farmers’ decision to adopt GM grain crops. A comparative analysis of ordered and binary probit models demonstrates that farmers are more deliberate in their decisions when they have fewer choices. Aside from the above-mentioned variables, the following factors are also statistically significant in the probit model: government technicians’ recommendations, neighbors’ attitudes, level of environmental risks, and the farmer’s age. Information on the major risks and benefits of GM rice was provided to the farmers in the questionnaire. The farmers were then asked to choose from the three ordered alternative answers, namely, “accept,” “uncertain,” and “reject”. Both ordered and binary probit models were applied to comparatively analyze the collected data. This study is one of a handful of studies that employ these econometric models to identify and explain the underlying factors that affect farmers’ decisions. The relevant findings have important implications for future agricultural policy in China.

Abstract: This paper examines the relationship between dialect ersity and foreign direct investment (FDI) using a dataset of 230 Chinese cities for the period 2000–2014. We find that dialect ersity and FDI absorption are negatively correlated. However, this negative relationship disappears gradually over time. Several underlying mechanisms are identified. In particular, it is found that dialect ersity impedes human capital development and hence obstructs FDI absorption. Our results also show that there are threshold and spatial spillover effects. This research increases knowledge of FDI location choice and has implications for foreign investment policymaking.

Abstract: Since the economic reforms beginning in 1978 and the “open door” policy that followed, consumer society in China has attracted the attention of academia. Before that, under Maoist socialism, consumerism was ideologically regarded as bourgeois and was generally suppressed. In iduals’ preferences gave way to the state providing subsistence living standards (food rationing, free housing, and so on). Since 1978, under the slogan of “getting rich is glorious,” tens of millions of Chinese households have become affluent. Chinese consumers now wish to satisfy their in idual wants and have the means to do so. In addition, with expanded international trade, communications, and tourism, Chinese consumers are well informed and have access not only to local products but also to well-known international brands. As a result, household consumption is booming and consumerism has become fashionable. Within a short period of time a consumer society emerged in the world’s most populous nation, in what is generally regarded as a consumer revolution in China. With the Chinese economy now the second largest in the world, and anticipated to overtake the United States in the near future, China’s consumer society is reshaping the country and has a global influence.
Technical founders, digital transformation and corporate technological innovation: empirical evidence from listed companies in China’s STAR market
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC

DOI: 10.1007/S11365-023-00852-7
Abstract: Technology entrepreneurship and corporate innovation are important for the development of indigenous innovation. In the digital age, founders are subject to fundamental changes in their strategy choices, which in turn affect corporate innovation performance. This paper aims to explore the strategic choices adopted by technical founders of listed companies in China’s STAR market to reap the rewards of innovation in a digital context. Based on the annual reports of 124 listed companies in China’s STAR Market, this paper applies machine learning methods to quantify digital transformation of enterprises, and empirically analyzes the relationship between technical founders and innovation performance by constructing a moderated mediating model. Our results show that companies with technical founders are more likely to adopt digital transformation and thus show better innovation performance. In terms of heterogeneity, the empirical results demonstrate that firms with technical founders show better performance in digital transformation, followed in turn by those with business founders and academic founders. Both the positive relationship between enterprise digital transformation and innovation performance and the mediating effect of digital transformation are positively moderated by venture capital or private equity support. The findings reveal the microscopic mechanism of the role of technology-based founders on corporate innovation performance and hence have practical implications for promoting corporate digital transformation and enhancing firm technological innovation.

Regional Variation in Carbon Emissions and its Driving Forces in China: An Index Decomposition Analysis
Publisher: SAGE Publications

DOI: 10.1260/0958-305X.24.7-8.1249
Abstract: This paper aims to investigate the factors affecting carbon emissions from the perspective of residential energy consumption. Specifically, through an index decomposition analysis (IDA), it examines the influence of social and economic factors on household carbon emissions in China's provinces. The results show that CO 2 emissions associated with household consumption continued to grow during the decade of 2000–2010. In general, per capita consumption expenditure and the share of energy consumption expenditure in total consumption spending are two main factors contributing to an increase in residential carbon emissions, while the change of energy consumption structure and energy price mitigated the growth of carbon emissions. However, there are considerable regional differences. Therefore, Chinese government must consider the substantial contribution of residential consumption to carbon emissions when it aims to expand domestic consumption.

The Impacts of Financial Development, Urbanization, and Globalization on Income Inequality: A Regression-based Decomposition Approach
Publisher: MIT Press - Journals
Date: 06-2019
DOI: 10.1162/ASEP_A_00703
Abstract: This paper investigates the impacts of financial development, urbanization, and globalization on income inequality in China by applying a regression-based inequality decomposition approach to panel data on Chinese provinces. Provincial data on urbanization and globalization are combined with new data collected from a unique database of financial development in China compiled at the county level. Our findings suggest that financial development, urbanization, and globalization have a positive impact on income. However, our inequality decomposition suggests that financial development may be particularly important for promoting inclusive growth, since financial development not only stimulates economic growth but is also found to be a factor that reduces inequality.

On the convergence of per capita carbon dioxide emission: a panel unit root test with sharp and smooth breaks
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 17-11-2019
DOI: 10.1007/S11356-019-06786-4
Abstract: This study aims to examine the stochastic convergence of per capita carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in 21 OECD countries and 19 emerging market economies. After approximating both sharp and smooth breaks, the panel unit root tests are performed to test the convergence. The empirical results suggest stochastic convergence for the two groups of countries. However, the results are different when tests for in idual countries are conducted separately. Specifically, CO2 emissions of only four OECD countries and four emerging market economies show evidence of convergence if smooth breaks are not considered. With the inclusion of both sharp and smooth breaks, convergence is observed for 11 OECD countries and 10 emerging market economies. These findings may have implications for climate change policy making in selected economies.

China's transformation towards a global green system of innovation

DOI: 10.1108/JSTPC-01-2013-0002
Abstract: This paper aims to examine recent trends and China's role in the emerging global green system of innovation (GGSI) and present the major achievement in China's R& D sectors and major challenges faced by the country. The authors use China's role in the clean development mechanism (CDM) as a case to demonstrate the country's willingness to adopt new technology and green innovation. In order to understand China's transformation towards the GGSI, the approach used in this study is a review of innovation systems literature combined with analysis of statistical data from various sources. The authors also build an innovation model for the emerging global green system of innovation to demonstrate the building blocks which allow for transformational system failures to be avoided. The clean development mechanism (CDM) is used as a case ex le as to how GGSI works. This paper puts into perspective some recent developments in innovation and argues that there is enough evidence to claim that the world is re‐orienting towards a global green system of innovation in which China is already one of the most significant players. Through building a new innovation model, this study demonstrates the complexity and the development of innovation in the context of China's transformation towards the GGSI.

DOES EXPORT DIVERSIFICATION MATTER FOR CHINA’S REGIONAL GROWTH?
Publisher: World Scientific Pub Co Pte Ltd
Date: 09-2019
DOI: 10.1142/S0217590817450023
Abstract: China has enjoyed high economic growth for more than three decades since the initiative of economic reform in early 1980s. This growth has been driven mainly by labor-intensive export-oriented manufacturing activities. Yet, there are remarkably few empirical studies of the link between export ersification and economic growth. In this paper, the effect of export ersification on economic growth in Chinese provinces in the period 2000–2006 is examined. The findings support cross-country evidence that regions with ersified export baskets enjoy higher economic growth. However, it is found that the growth benefits are linked to ersification of export products, rather than geographical ersification of exports. Further, it is also found that the growth effect and export ersification may have a nonlinear relationship. As such, governments promoting export ersification should distinguish the ersification of export products from that of export destinations. Their policies should also change as regional economies develop.
Chemical fertilizer use efficiency and its determinants in China's farming sector
Publisher: Emerald
Date: 10-05-2011
DOI: 10.1108/17561371111131272
Abstract: The objective of this paper is to examine chemical fertilizer use efficiency at the household level and provide an assessment of the causes of efficiency variation. A stochastic frontier production function approach is employed to estimate fertilizer use efficiency at the household level. It is estimated that on average about two‐thirds of the chemical fertilizers utilized are excessive in China. This has serious consequences as the excessive chemicals like nitrogen and phosphate either remain in the soil or flow into rivers and underground water systems or evaporate into the atmosphere. This study is probably first of its kind in the field and is based on the latest household survey data.

Re‐examination of the surplus agricultural labour in China
Publisher: Emerald
Date: 03-05-2013
DOI: 10.1108/17561371311331098
Abstract: This paper aims to contribute to the pool of studies of rural underemployment in China. It is devoted to the conceptualization and measurement of surplus labour. The agricultural labour requirement function is estimated by the stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) with China's prefecture‐level data. Surplus labour or inefficient labour is obtained by subtracting the required labour from the actual labour participated in agriculture. The authors' analysis indicates that the existing size of agricultural surplus labour in rural China is still significantly large with the continued practice of the household registration system and China's WTO membership. However, the size has been decreasing over the last decade. Quality of data might affect the authors' estimates. The phenomenon of the coexistence of surplus agricultural labour and shortage of workers in non‐agricultural production in urban China was discussed in line with the authors' research findings, as this has important impacts on the policies of rural industrialization in China. This paper further argues that China is probably experiencing the second stage of the Lewis‐Fei‐Ranis dualistic economic framework. The authors' paper is probably the first to use prefecture data and SFA for panel data study of surplus agricultural labour in China. The analysis is essential to the understanding of the rural labour market during its rapid transition.
ICT, technological diffusion and economic growth in Chinese cities
Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC
Date: 10-09-2023
DOI: 10.1007/S00181-022-02302-9
Abstract: This study uses a rich city-level dataset to analyse the relationship between information and communication technology (ICT) and economic growth in Chinese cities during 2001–2016. It is shown that ICT not only improves the aggregate efficiency of a city but also helps the city absorb technological diffusion from the frontier city. In addition, distance plays little role in technological diffusion process associated with ICT. Cities geographically farther away from or closer to the frontier city can equally benefit from technological diffusion as long as they have the same level of ICT development.
Effects of National Science and Technology Programs on Innovation in Chinese Firms
Publisher: MIT Press - Journals
Date: 03-2019
DOI: 10.1162/ASEP_A_00678
Abstract: This paper aims to evaluate whether national science and technology programs in China help boost private investment in research and development and improve firms’ productive efficiency and innovation performance. The empirical analysis is based on a survey of 443 innovative firms in China during the period of 2008–11. A matching estimator together with a difference-in-difference approach is employed to investigate the effect of undertaking national science and technology programs. The results show that the effectiveness of national science and technology programs may be over-estimated. There are also heterogeneous effects across firms of different sizes and ownership and with different programs.
