Summary/Abstract |
Simultaneous rapid rise in both the world oil and agricultural commodity prices have increased interest in determining price transmission from oil prices to those of agricultural commodities. However, although a lot of the empirical research has studied the relation between oil price changes and economic activity, it is surprising that little research has been conducted on the relationship between oil price shocks and the large-size emerging industrial countries agricultural market. Therefore, the main goal of this study is that we are try to use the more detail and new China's weekly data which from 2004/9 to 2012/9 to fill this gap. This study examines the short and long-run interdependence between China fuel oil prices and the average of different kinds of key agricultural commodity prices in China. To this end, the Toda-Yamamoto causality approach and impulse response analysis method are applied to identification of the long and short-run interrelationships. In contrast to lots of the traditional causality analysis indicates that the oil prices and the agricultural commodity prices do not influence each other, our result is mix: we have inferred that the fluctuation of fuel oil price has a short-run effect on the dynamics of agricultural products in China; however, there are no significant in the long-run effects.

Summary/Abstract |
Monthly economic indicators are used for a variety of purposes, from studying business cycles to determining economic policy and making informed business decisions. China's published monthly industrial output statistics could hardly be more confusing, with changes in variables, in coverage, in measurement, and in presentation. This paper reviews the available official data and proceeds to construct a monthly industrial output series in nominal terms and in real terms for the period 1980-2012, economy-wide and for the public sector.

Summary/Abstract |
Inadequate and unstable power supply constitute a major constraint to industrial production in Cameroon. This paper evaluates the long-term impact of power deficits on the country's manufacturing growth, using a Fully Modified Ordinary Least Square Method, and selected data from 2016 World Development Indicators, covering the period 1977–2014. For each variable used in the estimations, only data for Cameroon was retrieved for the period under study. The findings reveal that there is a strong and positive correlation of 0.904256/1 between power supply and manufacturing growth in the long-term. Moreover, a percentage decrease in electricity supply reduces annual manufacturing growth and gross capital formation by 0.07% and 0.28% respectively. Furthermore, Foreign Direct Investment inflows augment manufacturing value added by 0.39% yearly. It is recommended that: first, the government of Cameroon should increase its investments in the energy sector to boost power supply by 10% annually, in order to raise manufacturing growth by 0.7% in a year and 7% in a decade. Secondly, incentives to encourage private investments in the energy sector should be put in place to spur power production and supply. Overall, the findings imply that power supply must remain at the epicenter of economic and industrial policies in Cameroon.

Summary/Abstract |
There is a dilemma for rapid industrializing China to balance economic growth and low carbonization. Industrial symbiosis (IS) provides a system innovation to utilize the industry to fight climate change and pursue sustainable urban development, while few attentions are paid in literatures. Under this circumstance, this study reviews the low-carbon city practice in China and conducts a case study to calculate the CO2 emissions reduction potential under promoting IS projects in two cities of China, named Jinan and Liuzhou. With the real national project in Jinan as advanced example, new scenarios related to IS are designed for Liuzhou, including comprehensive energy network, waste plastics recycling, scrap tires recycling and flying ash recycling. The material/waste and energy exchange is quantified in the IS network, as well as the related environmental benefit. The material/energy exchange is over 10 million ton and 20 thousands tce in Jinan's case, and 2.5 million ton and 45 thousand tce in Liuzhou's case. Results highlight that IS could effectively reduce CO2 emissions. The total reduction potential amounts to 3944.05 thousands tCO2/year and 2347.88 thousands tCO2/year in Jinan and Liuzhou. Finally, policy implications on the ever-improvement of industrial symbiosis and China's sustainable urban development are proposed and discussed.
