This study examines China's mandatory EID policy implemented in 2014 as an example of the potential relationship between environmental policy and enterprise performance. We applied a difference-in-differences (DID) and propensity score matching (PSM) sampling method to examine the issue, using a panel dataset of nearly 90 sugar enterprises in Guangxi in China from 2008 to 2016. Earnings before income and tax and pollution emissions are considered as proxies of economic and environmental performance, respectively. The results show that the 2014 MEID policy has a significantly positive effect on pollution reduction and a significantly adverse effect on economy. These effects vary with corporation size and ownership. Production shrinkage appears to be the main reason for pollution reduction in Guangxi's sugar industry rather than technological innovation in the pollution treatment process. Furthermore, we discuss the study's limitations and policy implications.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":55427,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics","volume":"69 2","pages":"298-310"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143831059","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}

We use the marginal treatment effect (MTE) approach that not only accounts for selectivity bias from both observed and unobserved attributes but also accounts for heterogeneity in the treatment effects among farming households. The empirical results reveal that farmers with a higher propensity to adopt crop diversification gain more in terms of their food security status and poverty reduction status even under climatic shocks, compared to their lower propensity counterparts. Furthermore, the results from our policy relevant treatment effects (PRTEs) analysis reveal that policies and interventions aimed at engineering connections among farmers to improve information flow are important in the adoption of crop diversification. In particular, social interaction-oriented policies such as workshops and seminars can increase the adoption of the crop diversification strategy, which would eventually lead to improved household food and nutrition security and reduced poverty levels. The findings also suggest that leveraging crop diversification as a climate risk coping strategy can contribute to poverty alleviation and improved food security of rural farm households.","PeriodicalId":55427,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics","volume":"69 2","pages":"311-329"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1467-8489.70001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143831060","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}

Thus, identifying which service values take precedence for consumers is essential. This study used the best–worst scaling method to explore FM service values. A total of 881 valid FM consumer samples were collected. Mixed multinomial logit analysis and a latent class multinomial logit model were employed to identify segments of FM consumers on the basis of their prioritisation of FM service values. The results revealed that the three most highly prioritised service values in FMs are product freshness, food safety certification and reasonable pricing. The FM consumer respondents were categorised into three major groups: price conscious, food safety conscious and community supporter groups. Community supporters accounted for approximately 54% of the respondents. This study confirmed that leafy, squashes as well as root and tuber vegetables were the three preferred agricultural product categories among the FM consumers who prioritised the ‘providing vegetable and fruit boxes’ service value.","PeriodicalId":55427,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics","volume":"69 2","pages":"383-404"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143831484","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}

While the impact of E-commerce development on income growth has been widely discussed, its spatial spillover effects and subsequent mechanisms remain insufficiently explored. This study utilises panel data of 278 prefecture-level cities in China and employs a spatial difference-in-difference model incorporating the spatial Durbin model to explore the contribution of E-commerce development to farmers' incomes, focussing on the direct mechanisms and spatial spillover effects associated with the characteristics of E-commerce. Results indicate that E-commerce development promotes local farmers' income growth and exerts a positive spillover effect on neighbouring cities. The significant positive direct contribution effect is achieved through mediating effects of technological innovation and capital investment, while the mediating effect of industrial structure upgrading is found to be significantly negative, indicating farmers remain incapable of obtaining digital dividends from emerging economic opportunities. E-commerce development is also found to better increase farmers' incomes in less developed regions and regions with lower digitalisation levels, indicating a stronger impetus in the early stages of development.","PeriodicalId":55427,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics","volume":"69 2","pages":"344-368"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143831422","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}

Whilst global responses are needed for global problems, global environmental policies are likely to have heterogeneous impacts. Understanding this heterogeneity allows for more nuanced policy evaluation and design. We use a quantile difference-in-differences approach to uncover where a significant early global mechanism for implementing climate policy, the CDM, does and does not have an impact. Evaluating a panel of 104 developing countries over the period 1996–2016, we find that the CDM had a strong impact only at lower quantiles of the distribution of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In particular, countries in the 10th and 25th quantiles show a 9% reduction in emissions, whereas countries in the 90th quantile exhibit a 21% increase over the post-policy period. Emissions intensity and emissions per capita also experience mixed results with strong reductions in the bottom half of the distribution but increases at the very top. Decomposition across GHG emissions types indicates mixed results across the distribution for each; with carbon dioxide results acting similarly to aggregate emissions but fluorinated gases reducing across the distribution. Heterogeneity of the policy effect is observed across regions, the CDM is associated with: reduced emissions in the Latin America and Caribbean region; weaker reductions in Asia–Pacific; and mixed results in Africa. Identification of heterogeneity across subgroups of countries can assist with effective policy design and implementation of future global environmental policies.","PeriodicalId":55427,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics","volume":"69 2","pages":"281-297"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1467-8489.12615","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143831471","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}
