The supply of affordable crop insurance is hampered by the existence of systemic weather risk which results in large risk premiums. In this article, we assess the systemic nature of weather risk for 17 agricultural production regions in China and explore the possibility of spatial...

The increase in agricultural machinery input contribution rate has been the most significant structural change in the input factors of grain production in recent years. In this study, we constructed a threshold regression model and a spatial Durbin model to investigate the threshold effects and...

The implementation of the "second child policy" and the influx of large numbers of people have led to an increase in the population of Zhejiang Province in China, placing pressure on the environment, health care, and education. In this context, this study intends to use the...
