2. Rice Accounting
production + import + beginning stock = consumption + export + ending stock
consumption = production + (import – export) + (beginning stock - ending stock)*
* The amount of (beginning stock – ending stock) would be close
to 0, if the government keeps “public stockholding” constant.
Estimation of the production Model: small open economy 3 products* (domestic rice, imported
rice, other crops), 3 inputs (farm supplies, farm labor, farm land) production = yield x (area harvested)
*assuming that domestic rice and imported rice could be differentiated
3. Forecasting production
Estimation of the yield: AR(1)
Estimation of the area Area harvested = f (domestic rice price*, other crops
price farm supplies price, farm labor price, farm land price, tariff rate, exchange rate)
*In a small open economy, domestic rice price = international price x exchange rate x (1+ tariff
rate)
Q> international price = Heilongjiang price?

4. The model for consumption
Forecasting the consumption consumption = per capita consumption x population = domestic rice consumption + imported rice consumption population →AR(1) or AR(2) per capita consumption→AR(1) or AR(2) We like to separate domestic rice
consumption from the whole consumption
Model : per capita rice consumption = price dependent part + time dependent part
example
qt = a + bpt + et et = c + det-1 + ut
qt: per capita rice consumption at period t pt: price at period t et: time dependent consumption at period t
ut: error

5. summary
We like to forecast: the area harvested the amount imported effects of government policies and
international negotiations
problems: Should we install a mechanism in the model
through which government policies (such as direct payment) could have an effect on production?
What is the international price? How to separate per capita consumption for
imported rice from the whole consumption? How to forecast the level at which the
downward trend of per capita consumption will be stabilized?
