摘要

极端天气事件正在恶化美国脆弱的农村基础设施,影响农产品的贸易流动。对农产品运输至关重要的密西西比河在2022年和2023年秋收期间达到历史低点,增加了运输成本,降低了农作物价格。本文通过分析阿肯色州大豆基础数据和密西西比河流量测量数据来估计这些干旱事件的成本。低水位显著削弱了大豆价格,其影响是粮食市场与河港距离的函数。研究结果对农村基础设施的公共政策投资和风险管理战略具有启示意义。

The effects of extreme weather on rural transportation infrastructure and crop prices along the Lower Mississippi River

The effects of extreme weather on rural transportation infrastructure and crop prices along the Lower Mississippi River

Extreme weather events are worsening the fragile rural infrastructure in the United States, impacting trade flows of agricultural products. The Mississippi River, vital for transporting agricultural commodities, reached historic lows during the 2022 and 2023 fall harvests, increasing transportation costs and lowering crop prices. This paper estimates the cost of these drought events by analyzing Arkansas soybean basis data and Mississippi River stream gauge data. Low river levels significantly weaken soybean prices, with the impact being a function of a grain market's distance to a river port. Findings have implications for public policy investment in rural infrastructure and risk management strategies.
