Structural Break and Causal Analyses of U.S. Corn Use for Ethanol and Other Corn Market Variables

The causal basis for many of the relationships in models used to estimate the indirect effects of U.S. biofuels on global agricultural markets has not been adequately established. This paper addresses this gap by examining causal interactions among corn market variables through which the indirect effects of U.S. corn use for ethanol would be transmitted. Specifically, structural break and causal analyses of U.S. corn supply, uses, trade, and price are performed using quarterly data for marketing years 1986 to 2017. The structural break analysis identifies three breaks in corn use for ethanol that reflect the policy-driven evolution of U.S. corn ethanol production and other market factors. The causality analysis finds that U.S. corn use for ethanol is not a driver of the corn price and net corn exports. Changes in corn supply and domestic corn use are found to be the key factors in accommodating the large increase in corn use for ethanol between 2003 and 2010. These results mean that common assumptions linking U.S. corn ethanol production to large reductions in corn availability and exports, and higher global corn prices merit reconsideration.

Effects of variable EU import levies on corn price volatility

The variable import levy for corn imports in the European Union aims to support European producers by insulating domestic prices from low international prices. Such price-insulating policies have been associated with an increase in global market volatility. Eliminating these distortions has been one of the key issues in international negotiations on agricultural trade liberalization, e.g., the commitment of WTO member states to follow the principle of tariffication as part of the Uruguay Round Agreement on Agriculture. Nevertheless, the Blair House Agreement effectively allowed the EU to maintain a variable import levy regime for grain imports, although the magnitude of this levy is substantially smaller than in the past. Notwithstanding that this policy has been a cornerstone of the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy, empirical evidence on the magnitude of its effects on price volatility is largely missing. This paper employs a multivariate asymmetric volatility model to assess these effects on domestic and foreign corn markets, using Argentina – a large exporter of corn – as an example. In line with the relevant theoretical literature, we find empirical evidence for the 2002–2017 period that the variable import levy reduced corn price volatility in the EU market, while significantly increasing volatility to the same extent in Argentina. In a distorted sense, the import levy of the EU has thus been a success, as its variable application rate has stabilized prices in the EU domestic market. However, our results show that this policy has merely shifted price volatility abroad since it has led to increases in price volatility in Argentina. A less distortionary policy to target the problems of agricultural price volatility should shift its focus away from direct price interventions. For instance, domestic policies that improve farmers’ ability to cope with price-related risks would avoid the negative effects of domestic price stabilization in foreign countries.

Opportunities and challenges to increase corn export from Gorontalo province of Indonesia

Corn has an essential role in Indonesia, especially as a livestock feed. Corn production has increased significantly over the past five years. Many provinces in Indonesia are a center of corn production, but most do not serve as corn exporter. Gorontalo is one of it that has successfully exported corn. However, corn export from the province is still facing continuity and competitiveness challenges. This study aims to analyze of the corn exports’ potential, opportunities, and challenges from the region. The survey was conducted in 2018. Data and information were collected through in-depth interviews with relevant agencies and respondents are analyzed using SWOT analysis. The results of the study show that Gorontalo Province has a good prospect for exporting corn. The main strength of this province is the availability of two export ports. However, transportation infrastructure to the ports does not optimally support corn export activities. The dynamics of corn trade policies by the Government is also a potential factor to weaken corn competitiveness. Various programs are needed to continuously increase corn exports, including simplifying corn export procedures and licenses, improving infrastructure to facilitate transportation to farmland, and improving export market access by doing good networking with corn importers.

Розвиток галузі біопалив як детермінанта cталого розвитку України

The purpose of the article is to form scenarios for the development of the biofuel market in Ukraine and to substantiate the ways of their implementation. Research methods. In the course of the research, dialectical methods of cognition of processes and phenomena, analysis and synthesis were used to study the modern biofuel market in Ukraine and compare it with world trends; empirical – for a comprehensive assessment of the current state of biofuel production in Ukraine; scenario analysis – to determine possible ways for the development of the biofuel market in Ukraine and the related state policy for the development of its production; SWOT analysis – to determine the strengths and weaknesses of the internal environment, as well as the opportunities and threats of the external environment in the field of biofuel production in Ukraine; scientific abstraction – to summarize the results, the formation of conclusions and the own development of the biofuel production industry in Ukraine. Research results. The assessment of biofuel production in the world has been carried out and the main types of raw materials for its production have been identified. Scenarios for the development of the biofuel production industry in Ukraine have been substantiated. The volume of areas to achieve the goals of Ukraine in the consumption of biofuel in accordance with the scenarios has been calculated. Comparison of the production and export of corn and wheat by major producers in the world have been conducted. The calculation of the volume of biofuel production from lands that are not split in Ukraine has been carried out. The yields of the main agricultural crops for biofuel production in the main producing countries or exporters of agricultural products have been analyzed, as a result of which it has been determined that Ukraine is not in the leading positions in one of the crops grown. As a result of the SWOT analysis, the key needs of Ukraine in the development of the biofuel industry have been identified. Scientific novelty. The ways of developing the biofuel industry without reducing the export potential of Ukraine are proposed. They consist in using the potential of unused agricultural land and in increasing the efficiency of agricultural production, in particular, increasing yields. Practical significance. The applied significance of the results is considered as the basis for the formation of a strategy for the development of the biofuel industry in Ukraine. Tabl.: 8. Figs.: 1. Refs.: 22.

VOLATILITIY OF WORLD FOOD COMMODITY PRICES AND RENEWABLE FUEL STANDARD POLICY

Biofuel as an alternative fuel which in recent years has become the world's demand for renewable energy fuels and is a major factor underlying the increase in prices of agricultural commodities, especially corn as the main commodity for biofuels in the US. The purpose of this study is to examine the volatility of several world food commodities, namely rice, wheat, corn, and soybeans and to analyze the impact of biofuel development on the price volatility of some world food commodities. This research uses coefficient of variation and volatility analysis with the ARCH GARCH method. Based on the results, the price of food commodities is more volatile after the adoption of the Renewable Fuel Standard 2 (RFS) policy in 2007. The results of the study show that development of biofuels (from corn and soybeans) have a higher level of volatility than the other two commodities (rice and wheat) due to the variance of rice and wheat was lower than corn and soybeans. It means that the greater the relevance of a commodity to the development of biofuels, the higher the price volatility of the commodity. Meanwhile, the expansion of biofuels also made US reduce the amount corn and soybean exports, of course this is what makes the supply of US corn and soybeans decreased and makes the price will increase.

Where does all the biofuel go? Fuel efficiency gains and its effects on global agricultural production

Increasing biofuel production over the last decade and biofuel policies in Brazil, the European Union, and the United States have changed the global agricultural landscape in terms of land-use, commodity prices, and trade. Increasing fuel efficiency and electrification of the vehicle stock is projected to lower gasoline, diesel, and biofuel demand in the future. In this analysis, we quantify the effects of a 30% reduction in ethanol consumption in the U.S. and the European Union triggered by higher vehicle fleet fuel efficiency on global agricultural markets. Our results show decreases in global commodity prices by 1.9%–6.6% and a slight decrease in global cropland by 0.3%. Major changes occur in trade patterns with U.S. corn exports increasing by 30.3%. Global greenhouse gas emissions are lower due to the overall reduction in cropland. Gasoline and diesel consumption of the vehicle fleet is not changing rapidly but is a long-term process because vehicles are on average in operation for 10 or more years. Consequently, there are important long-term policy implications from changes in fuel efficiency requirements or ethanol blending limits that affect commodity prices, trade, and greenhouse gas emissions.

Економічні розрахунки потенціалу виробництва відновлювальної біоенергії у формуванні енергетичної незалежності агропромислового комплексу

The purpose of the article is to calculate the potential for energy independence of the agro-industrial complex of Ukraine based on the sustainable development principles. Research methods. Among the methods used: abstract-logical (to determine the essence and mechanisms of ensuring energy independence of economic systems and the agro-industrial complex); economic and statistical (for analyzing the potential of renewable bioenergy in order to form energy independence); comparative analysis (to determine the institutional contours of the priority of the use of renewable bioenergy in the formation of energy independence of the agro-industrial complex). Research results. The area of agricultural land is calculated, which will ensure the cultivation of the required amount of crop and livestock products for food consumption in accordance with the norms of the physiological needs of the population of Ukraine in basic nutrients. The analysis of the export of agricultural products by commodity groups was carried out and the calculations of the amount of agricultural land required for its provision were made. The volume of gross international reserves and the trends of their formation in dynamics from 2009 to 2020 are analyzed. Scientific novelty. The world volume of corn production, corn export by the largest producing countries and the share of its processing for biofuels were investigated. Studied and systematized the foreign experience of the USA, Germany, Brazil, Czech Republic, China, India and other countries-producers of biofuel, which use as raw materials sugarcane, corn, sugar beet, corn silage, animal husbandry and crop waste. Practical significance. The formation of the structure of sown areas under energy crops with high rates of bioenergy yield from one ton of raw materials and one hectare of sowing has been carried out, as well as the calculation of the possible volumes of production of such energy in Ukraine. The number of livestock of farm animals husbandry is given, the volume of animal waste generation in Ukraine and the potential for biogas production from manure are calculated. In addition, it was found that the agro-industrial complex of Ukraine, without a threat to the food security of the state and export potential, has the ability to provide energy independence of the agro-industrial complex of Ukraine and the state as a whole.

The Impact of the Exchange Rate on the Resources Allocation, Individual Welfare, and Government Revenues: A Case Study of Cereal Crops أثر سعر الصرف على منطقة الموارد ورفاهیة الأفراد وعوائد الحکومة :دراسة حالة محاصیل الحبوب

The Central Bank’s decision in November 2016 was liberalizing the exchange rate for the Egyptian pound which had an impact on the agricultural sector in general and cereal crops in particular, The research problem was increasing the prices of agricultural products, whether they were local or imports due to the increase in energy prices and the increase in the electricity tariff as a result of the increase in the exchange rate. The research aimed to estimate the effect of changes in the exchange rate on the government returns, the resource allocation and welfare (producer and consumer surplus) and net social loss, The following results were reached: (1) The net economic loss as a result of exporting the rice crop was the lowest of about 2.2 billion pounds in 2014, and the maximum amounted to about 44.6 billion pounds in 2016 due to the significant decrease in government revenues in 2016, which amounted to about 48.2 billion pounds. (2) The values of the index of net economic gains in wheat consumption achieved significant increases during the study period, ranging from about 202.1 million pounds in 2014 to about 241 million pounds in 2016 due to the increase in local prices, local consumption and the exchange rate. (3) The loss in the foreign exchange of the maize crop achieved negative values during the years 2014, 2015 and 2016 due to the decrease in the export of corn abroad, where the maximum decrease reached about 253.5 million dollars in 2014.

АНАЛІЗ КОНКУРЕНТОСПРОМОЖНОСТІ ЗЕРНОВИХ КУЛЬТУР НА АГРАРНОМУ СВІТОВОМУ РИНКУ

У статті розглянута актуальна проблема вивчення на прикладі зернових взаємозв'язку експорту продукції агропромислового комплексу України, ЄС і країн світу, а також визначення ефективності експорту з України зернових на європейський і світовий ринки в умовах створення зони вільної торгівлі з ЄС. Доведено, що Україна займає значне місце на світовому ринку зернових: частка в експорті пшениці в середньому становить 5,7%; в експорті ячменю – 14,8%; у світовому експорті кукурудзи – 9,1%; водночас частка України в експорті пшениці в ЄС становить 33,7%, в експорті ячменю – 48,9%, в експорті кукурудзи – 64,4%. Встановлено, що ефективність українського експорту зернових порівняно з ЄС у середньому для пшениці становить 35%, ячменю – 48%, кукурудзи – 65%, тобто для українського ринку зернових найбільш перспективним є ринок ЄС, але його активізація і перспективи зростання вимагають від України впровадження певних заходів і механізмів.

Impacts of International Commodity Trade on Conventional Biofuels Production

The study gives an overview of raw materials and biofuel generation, markets, production, and regulation. The major aim of this study was to reveal the impacts of biofuel production on international commodity trade. According to the results of the country-level regressions, the export of corn and sugar cane have generally negatively impacted ethanol production. This effect was positive at the global level which indicates that some of the imported raw materials are used for ethanol production. Although the explanatory power of the models was relatively high (from 0.35 (EU) to 0.94 (USA)), none of models proved to be significant, even at the 10% level. These values were higher for the biodiesel models (from 0.53 (USA) to 0.97 (Brazil)) and the EU model results were significant at the 5% level. The export of raw materials had a positive impact on biodiesel production. This implies that some part of the biodiesel was produced from the imported raw materials. The export of processed products (different oils) had a negative impact on biodiesel production, as they are normally used for other purposes.

Crosses of sweet corn and sticky corn also produced 2 different forms of corn, namely wrinkles and solid forms with a total percentage of 16,625% in the form of wrinkles and 83,375% in round shape.

Srednjoročni razvoj tržišta žitarica u Republici Hrvatskoj– rezultati modela parcijalne ravnoteže

The aim of the paper is to simulate the future development of the Croatian cereals market using the method of AGEMEMOD partial equilibrium model. The results present the historical (2010-2016) and projected development (2016-2030) of the production and trade in wheat, corn, barley, oats and rye markets. Simulation results show an increase in productivity per hectare and surface stability with the exception of individual culture. Wheat production in the projection period, same as corn, recorded a production increase and change in the trade balance. Croatia remains a net exporter of corn and wheat. For barley, as a third important cereal, the model results show a constant level of production by 2030, but also a positive foreign trade balance til the end of the projection period. Oats and rye, as less significant grains, still retain the status of imported products at the Croatian market. Domestic prices follow the EU prices trends, but will generally remain at a lower level than the average EU price. Despite the price competitiveness in the EU market, the domestic cereal sector is facing problems. In the domestic cereal sector there is a trend of relatively cheap grain export on common market, with expensive final products and processed products import.

Back to Agriculture?

Malthus’s main economic argument against free corn trade in his Essay on Population concerned the issue of structural change triggered by international trade. Malthus claimed that, in the long run, agricultural countries will develop their domestic industrial sectors and cut both their corn exports and their imports of foreign industrial goods. We critically assess Malthus’s views and compare them with Torrens 1815 and Ricardo 1822. We argue that the weak point of Malthus’s reasoning lies in his inability to perceive that an international trade-induced structural change process is at work both in agricultural and manufacturing countries. Moreover, we show that, notwithstanding the broad similarity of their conclusions, Torrens and Ricardo followed two analytically different paths.

Biofuel impact on food prices index and land use change

Food price and land use data over an extended time period have been examined to identify possible correlations between biofuel production and food price or land use changes. We compared the food price index before and after the biofuel boom in the 2000s to evaluate biofuel's impact on the inflation rate. We found that the U.S. food price inflation rate since 1973 could be divided into three distinct regions. The inflation rate was lowest at 2.6% during 1991–2016, which encompasses the biofuel boom. Among many factors, continuously rising food production per capita was identified as the likely cause of low food price inflation during this period. The US exports of corn have not declined since the 1990s and soybean exports are rising at a steady rate. Among several variables tested as a cause of food price index increase, crude oil price had the highest correlation. We also manually verified the automated land use classification of satellite image covering 664 km2 in three selected areas in the US. We found that 10.90% of non-agricultural land was misclassified as agriculture, whereas only 2.23% of agricultural land was misclassified as non-agricultural. The automated classification showed an 8.53% increase in agricultural land from 2011 to 2015, while the manual classification showed only 0.31% (±1.92%) increase. This result was within the margin of error alluding to no significant land use change. We concluded that automated satellite image land use classification should be verified more rigorously to be used for land use change analysis.

Prospects of free trade with China: development of domestic export and risks of import dependence

Development of the trade between Ukraine and China generates serious challenges for the national economy, because, presently, the trade with China accounts for more than a half of Ukraine's negative balance in this country's international trade in goods (56% in January-November 2018). Despite the risks of further deterioration of trade balance, Ukraine has suggested to start consultations on the Ukraine-China free-trade agreement (FTA). The purpose of the paper is to estimate the possible impact of the liberalization of trade with China and to develop recommendations for raising exports and suppressing China's goods expansion on domestic market. In order to investigate the problem and shape the outlook for domestic exports to China, the following steps have been made: (1) compared the structure of external trade in goods of Ukraine and China; (2) evaluated the trade regimes' symmetry between China and Ukraine; (3) identified the characteristics of China's non-tariff trade regulations; (4) analyzed special ties features of negotiating with China on FTA; (5) analyzed the situation with the development of domestic export to China, and identified prospective markets for domestic goods; and (6) analyzed the dynamics of imports of goods from China during 2004-2018. Also, discussed the groups of import goods that are top items by absolute volume and possess a high share in imports and in local domestic consumption. Analysis of the structure of trade flows between Ukraine and China showed that the most probable development scenario in the trade with China is the increased orientation of Ukrainian export on raw materials and empowering of Ukraine's dependence on the import of Chinese industrial goods. Probability of this scenario is increasing since the trade regimes of Ukraine and China are asymmetrical, which creates unequal conditions of trade that are more preferable for China. It was found that, even in case of trade liberalization as the result of FTA negotiations between China and Ukraine, Ukraine could not expect sustainable increase in exports of agri-food goods, as China has special non-tariff regulations in domestic agri-food markets. Among the core directions of the government policy of supporting the development of agricultural export to China is promotion of corn export in accordance with the credit agreement of 2012 between State Food and Grain Corporation of Ukraine and Export-Import Bank of China, and soybean export promotion with the purpose to substitute US in the Chinese import soybean market, which opened up as a result of US-China trade disputes in 2017-2018. Negative trends in bilateral trade are the reason for active government policy promoting the export of processed goods to China, first of all the products of food industry and optical photographic instruments and apparatus that are of high demand in local Chinese markets. Import dependence of domestic local market remains high without significant signs of decrease. In 2017, the ratio between import and GDP was the highest for the recent 17 years. During 2013-2017, this ratio increased from 0.51 to 0.56. Dependence of Ukraine's economy on import could increase further as a result of liberalization of the trade with China. Despite the benefits for exporters (mostly exporters of raw goods), cheap Chinese import could delay the renaissance of the domestic light industry that has gradually started after a sharp decline in 2013-2015. Dynamics of goods import from China during 2004-2018 was analyzed, and discussed groups of goods that are the top import items by absolute volume, possess a high share in imports and in local domestic consumption. The research was conducted on agricultural and agri-food goods, and for 4- and 6- digit codes. Presence of Chinese goods in domestic market is constantly increasing. In 2002-2003, balance of trade between Ukraine and China was positive, and the share of China's goods in market was below 2%, but, starting from 2005, the trade balance has been always negative with share of Chinese goods increasing to 13% (2018). Machinery accounted for more than a half of Chinese import in 2018, with machinery, instruments and equipment making the highest share. China is the main exporter of telephone equipment for cellular networks, computers and notebooks, photo-sensitive semi-conductors, light-emitting diodes and other innovative and high technology products. China possesses top positions in imports of household electronics and appliances, light industry goods (shoes, toys, synthetic textiles etc.) and other goods. In 74 out of 178 analyzed 4-digit groups of goods, China's share in import in 2017 was higher than 50%. From the position of domestic market protection, trade liberalization with China could cause high risks for domestic producers. Assortment of industrial goods that are imported from China is very extensive, hence their expansion in domestic market could be quite significant. The publication was prepared during the research work "The modernization of economic policy of field of activities and markets development" (state registration number 0118U007329).

Models on providing food security: case of Ukraine

Providing food security is a top issue of agricultural economics in a global scale. Although Ukraine helps other countries become more food secure through its exports of wheat, corn, barley, and sunflower, low per capita income levels create challenges for Ukrainians to keep their diet nutrition balance in animal food basket. The research objective supposed applying mathematical apparatus to support solving this problem. The offered consumption optimization model has been developed to ensure inelastic customers’ food preferences by animal products subject to income and calories constraints. The proposed econometric models have been designed to project broiler, pork, eggs, milk, and beef productions. Complex implementation of the set mathematical models maintained the tool to analyze scenarios by expected export/import and demands for grain and oilseed crops used for feed in animal husbandry. The results of this research provide state authorities, livestock and poultry producers, Ukrainian consumers and other interested parties with management guidance focused on developing animal husbandry in the presence of income, as well as animal product price variability.
