Water shortage crisis is an issue that has led to drastic changes in different agricultural policies, especially in arid and semi-arid areas. Uncertainty in the amount of resources, e.g. water, used for agricultural production entails risk for farmers' income and cropping pattern changes. In the present study, the robust optimization model was used for optimal allocation of arable lands of Khor...

A novel fractionation method, based on both particle size and settling characteristics, was employed to examine metal distributions among five fractions. In-stream and stormwater runoff samples were collected from four land use types: highway, urban, agricultural (storm event and irrigation), and natural. Highway samples contained the highest dissolved concentrations for most metals, and freshw...

Water resources play a vital role in human life and agriculture irrigation, especially for agriculture-dominant developing countries and regions. Improving agricultural water use efficiency has consequently become a key strategic choice. This study, based on Zhangye City’s economic characteristics and data, applies a static Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model with a constant elasticity o...

The carbon trading system affects all aspects of the economy and society profoundly. Agriculture, as a high-carbon-emitting industry, has been hard-hit. China’s agricultural activities will emit about 820 million tons dioxide equivalents, accounting for 7% country’s total emissions. In order to develop green low-carbon control greenhouse gas emissions, China officially launched pilot emissions ...

The growth of agricultural total factor productivity (TFP) is seen as a driving force for the sustainable development agriculture. Meanwhile, promotion urbanization in China has exerted profound impact on production. This paper calculates TFP and analyzes effect urbanization. Firstly, DEA-Malmquist method used to calculate dynamic change from 2004 2016. Secondly, spatial spillover investigated ...
