An Alternative Approach to Measure Regional Comparative Advantage in China’s Grain Sector∗
"... This study uses Domestic Resource Costs (DRC) as the bases in measuring regional comparative advantage in grain production in China. It reveals that China as a whole is likely to have strong comparative advantage in Japonica rice, sorghum, middle Indica rice, millet, and late Indica rice production. ..."

Uncover the Causes of China's Low Utilisation of Grain TRQ [1]
"... Since China’s accession to the WTO in late 2001, China’s utilisation of grain TRQs (tariff-rate quotas) has been very low, being only about 12 per cent on average during 2002-08. This is in sharp contrast to anticipations of many analysts who believed that China’s grain imports would grow significan ..."

Regional Comparative Advantage in China’s Main Grain Crops
"... This paper explores the regional comparative advantage in grain production in China directly according to production and associated costs. Two groups of indicators are used in the study. The first group of indicators includes Net Social Profitability (NSP) and Domestic Resource Costs (DRC), both mea ..."

The Demand New Insights for Food Grain in China: into a Controversy
"... There is a substantial controversy in the economics literature over the magnitude of the expenditure elasticity for food grain in China that is caused, to a large extent, by whether time-series or cross-section data are used in the analysis. A set of reasonable elasticities for a complete demand sys ..."

Feed-Grain Consumption by Traditional Pork-Producing Households in China
, 1998
"... Economic reforms in China’s agricultural sector initiated in the late 1970s led to rapid structural change in China’s pork sector. Swine production units have declined in number but increased in size. Using household survey data from seven provinces in China, feed-grain demand by pork producers is e ..."

No. E1997002 1997-57 China's Grain Trade Policy and Its Domestic Grain Economy
, 1997
"... The paper examines the relationship between China's grain trade and domestic grain economy through an institutional perspective. It reveals that China's grain imports have been primarily necessitated by filling the physical gap between domestic grain demand and supply. Due to the special i ..."

Projecting China’s Grains and Meats Trade: Sensitivity to agricultural productivity growth *
"... Literature from the past 20 years is reviewed to establish the range of TFP growth estimates that have been made for China’s agriculture. This includes some studies that have focussed on either the crops or livestock subsectors. The dispersion of these estimates is used as an input to a slightly-mod ..."

-modified GTAP model in order to determine the sensitivity of China’s projected grains and meats trade balances to agricultural productivity growth. For many variables, results indicate a high degree of sensitivity, and a number of ways are suggested by which such projections might be enhanced through improved

Estimation of SWCCs from Grain-Size Distribution Curves for Loess Soils in China
"... Indirect pedo-transfer functions, (PTFs) are increasingly being used for the estimation of the soil-water characteristic curve, SWCC. The accuracy of the PTF method depends on the PTF and the equation used to best-fit the particle-size distribution (PSD). The objectives of this study are to: 1.) eva ..."
