Modelling the Effects of Oil Prices on Global Fertilizer Prices and Volatility
نویسندگان
چکیده
The main purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effect of crude oil price on global fertilizer prices in both the mean and volatility. The endogenous structural breakpoint unit root test, ARDL model, and alternative volatility models, including GARCH, EGARCH, and GJR models, are used to investigate the relationship between crude oil price and six global fertilizer prices. The empirical results from ARDL show that most fertilizer prices are significantly affected by the crude oil price while the volatility of global fertilizer prices and crude oil price from March to December 2008 are higher than in other periods.

متن کاملImpacts of Oil Price Shocks on Macroeconomic Variables of Oil Exporting and Importing Countries: A Global VAR Approach
This paper investigates the effects of oil price shocks on real GDP and inflation in selected oil exporting and importing countries using the Global VAR approach. We have used the data for 47 countries over the 38 years from 1979 to 2015 in this research. We have grouped the countries into 21 regions. Our results indicate that firstly that the impact of shocks on the real GDP of oil-exporti...
متن کاملShort-term global crop acreage response to international food prices and implications of volatility
Understanding how producers make decisions to allot acreage among crops and how decisions about land use are affected by changes in prices and their volatility is fundamental for predicting the supply of staple crops and, hence, assessing the global food supply situation. The innovations of the present paper are estimates of monthly (i.e. seasonal) versus annual global acreage response models f...
