With the development of the digital economy in the agricultural sector, both opportunities and challenges may arise for the NAOEs. This study examines the effects of the digital economy on the performance of NAOEs by using a comprehensive dataset containing information on nearly the entire population of family farms, farmer cooperatives and agricultural companies from 2013 to 2020 in China. The mechanisms and inclusiveness of these effects have also been explored. Our results find that the digital economy positively impacts NAOEs' performance in terms of sales revenue and profit. These effects are realised by improving agricultural inputs and market transaction conditions. The effects are more profound for farmer cooperatives, agricultural companies and NAOEs with lower profitability and larger organisation size. The magnitude of the effects is larger for NAOEs located in regions with better topographic, economic conditions and higher digital economy levels. In addition, the synergy between traditional and digital infrastructures can enhance these effects. The conclusion provides insights and guidance for encouraging the high-quality and inclusive development of NAOEs in the digital age.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":55427,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics","volume":"69 3","pages":"687-700"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144681104","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there has been little research on the role informal institutions play in this issue. Drawing on village-level data from the 2015 to 2023 China Household Finance Survey, this paper aims to examine the interaction between clans, the most important form of informal institutions in rural China and straw burning. The estimated results show that clans have a facilitating effect on village-level straw burning, though this effect is weakened to some extent when the straw-burning prohibition policy is introduced. Mechanism analysis reveals that the influence of clans on straw burning is notably stronger when clan members hold leadership positions within the village. Larger village populations and higher rates of non-grain farming further amplify this effect. Further analysis indicates that the presence of multiple clans within a village also contributes to increased straw burning. Our findings suggest that the effectiveness of straw-burning policies reflects the broader interplay between formal and informal institutions, highlighting the need to consider the influence of informal institutions when enforcing such policies.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":55427,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics","volume":"69 3","pages":"566-583"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144681004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I provide population prevalence estimates of food insecurity in Australia using fresh data on Food Insecurity Experience Scale reported, for the first time, in the 2020 Household Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey. A single parameter Rasch model is estimated to establish the validity and reliability of FIES as a tool to measure food insecurity in Australia. Cross-nationally comparable prevalence estimates, based on FAO's global reference scale, indicate that in 2020, <i>one in sixteen</i> people experienced moderate to severe food insecurity. Using Australia-specific thresholds on the national scale, <i>one in eleven</i> people were food insecure. Severe food insecurity is a concern in Australia. South Australia and Queensland are the most food-insecure states. Certain subpopulations, such as lone persons, are at higher risk of food insecurity. Household-level measures of food insecurity may hide intrahousehold food hardship. The single-item official measure underestimates the prevalence of food insecurity. Experiential measures such as the US Household Food Security Survey Module must be validated using national-level data prior to their application as instruments to measure food insecurity in Australia. Food security policies must be context specific.</p>","PeriodicalId":55427,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics","volume":"69 3","pages":"717-731"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1467-8489.70020","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144681147","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As expected, higher farmland values were consistently associated with more favourable soil characteristics; higher rainfall; proximity to coast; urban accessibility; higher built-in land production; and a non-linear effect (an inverse U-shape) for maximum temperature. Interestingly, contrasting results were found between native vegetation values estimated using market sales and assessed valuations. An increase in the proportion of native woody vegetation was significantly associated with the per hectare market sale price but at a decreasing rate when the vegetation increased above a third of the property. This contrasts with the assessed values database, where cleared land (decreasing vegetation) was valued higher (but at a diminishing rate). The sales prices of small and medium-sized farms reflected higher values per hectare for native vegetation than large farms—while native vegetation was associated with higher values for grazing and horticulture farm market sales than for cropping farms. The results suggest that, where market sales information is unavailable, assessed valuations may not be effective indicators of native vegetation values—as assessed evaluations tend to undervalue native vegetation on farmlands.</p>","PeriodicalId":55427,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics","volume":"69 3","pages":"540-555"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1467-8489.70021","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144681228","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
