Title:
Writing and Publishing Policy-Relevant Applied Economic Research: Three Examples on the Chinese Hog Market
Abstract:
China’s home to half of the pigs in the world, and China is a leading importer of pork globally, which is the signature staple food with critical significance for its national security. Over the past few years, the Chinese hog sector has experienced major environmental regulations especially in its southeastern urban provinces, African Swine Fever, and the COVID-19. These not only led to major swings in pork prices that still has grave consequences for the consumer and producer welfare, but also demonstrated China’s increasingly important role in the global agricultural commodity markets involving proteins and feed grains. Leveraging three recent papers, this lecture will discuss how these consequential policy and market shocks provided opportunities for policy-relevant applied economic research, and how novel empirical methods – machine learning, event study, and synthetic difference-in-differences – were used to analyse the causal impact of these changes.
