This is the first paper that estimates the global land use change impact of growth of the bioenergy sector. Applying time-series analytical mechanisms to fuel, biofuel and agricultural commodity prices and production, we estimate the long-rung relationship between energy prices, bioenergy...

The present paper studies the land use change impacts of fuels and biofuels. We test the theoretical hypothesis, which says that changes in fuel prices cause changes in land use both directly and indirectly and, because of price inter-dependencies, biofuels reinforce the land use change impacts....

This is the first paper that estimates the global land use change impact of growth of the bioenergy sector. Applying time-series analytical mechanisms to fuel, biofuel and agricultural commodity prices and production, we estimate the long-rung relationship between energy prices, bioenergy...

Diese Dissertation zielt darauf ab, die komplexen Wechselbeziehungen zwischen den verschiedenen Faktoren, die den Prozess der Abholzung der Tropenwälder beeinflussen, durch die Untersuchung dieser Problematik in der Nähe des Lore Lindu National Parks in Zentral-Sulawesi, Indonesien zu...

The paper investigates spatial changes in cultivation and land use of wheat, maize and oilseed in Hungarian agriculture using different methods to measure these changes. The results suggest that spatial structure of crop productions has remained fairly stable during analysed period. The spatial...

Provisional results of the 2016 All-Russia Census of Agriculture suggest that the view of agricultural land needs to be revised completely. They also suggest that regulatory and supervisory authorities should draw serious conclusions from that

This paper documents the relationship between staple crop price variability, export crop cultivation, and forest loss. Specifically, I test whether maize price variability affects households' cultivated farmland acreage. I use nationally-representative household panel data from Ghana to show...

This paper contributes to the sparse empirical literature on measuring liquidity in agricultural land markets. Using data from Lower Saxony (Germany), we inspect the spatial and temporal variability of various liquidity indicators. We apply a panel vector autoregression (VAR) and Granger...

Structural change in agriculture is characterized by the interdependency of farms' growth decisions due to the limited availability of the production factor land. This paper adds to the sparse empirical literature on the relation between land market concentration and farm size changes,...
