Role of Crude Oil in Determining the Price of Corn in the United States: A Non-parametric Approach
Abstract
This paper explores the role of crude oil in determining corn prices for data on the weekly front future prices in the United States. With 38% of corn production allocated toward fuel ethanol, a possible effect of crude oil price variation on corn price fluctuations is theoretically indicated. To test this theory, two complementary approaches—a parametric multiple regression and a non-parametric multivariate adaptive regression splines approach are employed. Along with indicating a weak relationship between corn and crude oil prices, the results suggest that corn price responds nonlinearly to the changes in soybean and wheat prices.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Quantitative Economics (JQEC) is a refereed journal of the Indian Econometric Society (TIES). It solicits quantitative papers with basic or applied research orientation in all sub-fields of Economics that employ rigorous theoretical, empirical and experimental methods. The Journal also encourages Short Papers and Review Articles. Innovative and fundamental papers that focus on various facets of Economics of the Emerging Market and Developing Economies are particularly welcome. With the help of an international Editorial board and carefully selected referees, it aims to minimize the time taken to complete the review process while preserving the quality of the articles published.
