This paper studies the welfare impacts of agricultural shocks on households with detailed heterogeneity, by taking consumption, land, and labor allocation choices into account. The underlying model is quantified with household survey data from 51 developing countries, then used to analyze the...

Measurement errors in macroeconomic aggregates such as GDP have been widely lamented, particularly in low-income contexts. This study investigates the reliability of one component of national accounts, agricultural sector output. Focusing first on the case of Mozambique, we use a series of 12...

This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the agricultural land coverage in Mozambique by harnessing advanced remote sensing technologies and draws on successful agricultural development examples to propose strategic pathways for Mozambique. The study leverages Sentinel-2 satellite imagery...

In this paper, we address a gap in the literature concerning pollination management, the pollinator deficit, and conservation objectives. By employing a farm level survey of UK farmers, we examine farmers' attitudes, understanding and management of pollinators. Based on descriptive statistics...

The 2023 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) encompass a specific objective that is to 'end hunger, achieve food security, enhance agriculture, and improve nutrition'. The realization of this goal relies heavily on efficient agriculture sector management in developing countries. Consequently,...

The revitalization of traditional medicine has intensified interest in medicinal plants; however, reliance on wild sources poses sustainability challenges. Despite the economic potential of medicinal plants, small farmers face challenges such as limited access to resources, capital, markets, and...

The paper applies the farm accountancy data network (FADN) approach to conduct a comparison analysis of the revenue of EU fruit producers. The study constitutes a significant contribution to the requisite development of more accurate metrics and appropriate approaches, which are necessary for...

Understanding global food production and productivity patterns is crucial for policy and in-vestment decisions aimed at addressing poverty, food insecurity, and climate change. This paper develops comprehensive calorific-based production and yield indexes for 144 crops, covering 98 percent of...

Natural Capital Accounting (NCA) integrates economic and environmental data to understand the connections between economic and environmental resources. The European Union (EU) has shown strong policy support for NCA, amending Regulation 691/2011 to include ecosystem accounts (EA) as a mandatory...

This report describes the algorithm to disaggregate regional crop area statistics in Europe, at all NUTS and GAUL administrative levels and onto a regular grid of 25 km. This algorithm is necessary to aggregate crop indicators in the MARS Crop Yield Forecasting System (MCYFS) from the original...

Key figures on the European food chain provides a selection of indicators on the food chain, from primary production in agriculture and fisheries through to consumption. Data are presented for the European Union (EU), EU countries and European Free Trade Agreement (EFTA) countries. For some...

This study investigates the impact of seasonal climate change on rice productivity in Vietnam's Central Coast, using 26 years of data from 1996 to 2021. To achieve this objective, the study applies a Feasible Generalized Least Squares (FGLS) model to obtain robust estimates for the panel...

In the European Union (EU), high-protein crops for animal feed are defined as those having a protein content ranging between 30% and 50%. These crops are crucial for meeting the nutritional needs of certain livestock, particularly poultry and pigs. The EU categorises its plant protein sources...

Key figures on the European food chain presents a selection of indicators on the food chain, from primary production in agriculture and fisheries through to consumption. Data are presented for the European Union (EU), its individual Member States and European Free Trade Agreement (EFTA)...
