Impact of Sino-US Trade Friction on Import and Export Trade Pattern of Soybean in Heilongjiang

Under the background of Sino-US trade friction,soybean,as an important variety in the important and export trade of agricultural products,has become a key bargaining chip. After the Ministry of Commerce of China announced the counter list of agricultural products including soybean,the price fluctuations of domestic soybean and related agricultural products are rapidly expanding. Under the background of SinoUS trade friction,taking the soybean-producing areas in Heilongjiang as an example,the impact of Sino-US trade friction on the important and export pattern of soybean in Heilongjiang was explored to provide a certain theoretical basis for the development of soybean industry in Heilongjiang.

The Impact of Trade Deficits and the Burden of Crisis Oriented Economy on the Livelihoods of Nepali People

29,164,578 people are living in Nepal.Out of them,48.96%are men and 51.04%are women.The growth rate of the population is 0.93%annually.However,216,957 individuals had been abroad for employment,education or other reasons.It has developed an addiction to imported products using remittances.The government delays spending the money allotted for capital improvements.The debt incurred by loans received from donors exceeds between 20 trillion and 80 billion of Nepal’s entire yearly budget.Based on statistics from Nepal Rastra Bank fiscal years 2021/2022,export and import contributions to overall Nepal’s foreign commerce were 8.40%and 91.60%,respectively.Due to the burden of debt and increasing trade deficit in the Nepalese economy,it has greatly affected the livelihood of the people.The increase in the prices of goods has made the lives of ordinary and low-income citizens very difficult.To reduce it,it is necessary to increase the production of indigenous products and promote their trade.Nepal needs to improve its ability to balance imports and exports.Economic dependency will reduce and the nation’s focus on self-sufficiency will increase if the market is extended by raising the output of locally produced items.There will be an increase in hazards as the state’s ability to function weakens.No nation can be entirely self-sufficient in the open global market of today by producing all the commodities and services it requires.Economic dependency will reduce and the nation’s focus on self-sufficiency will increase if the market is extended by raising the output of locally produced items.There will be an increase in hazards as the state’s ability to function weakens.

Spatial Heterogeneity of Embedded Water Consumption from the Perspective of Virtual Water Surplus and Deficit in the Yellow River Basin,China

Virtual water trade(VWT)provides a new perspective for alleviating water crisis and has thus attracted widespread attention.However,the heterogeneity of virtual water trade inside and outside the river basin and its influencing factors remains further study.In this study,for better investigating the pattern and heterogeneity of virtual water trade inside and outside provincial regions along the Yellow River Basin in 2015 using the input-output model(MRIO),we proposed two new concepts,i.e.,virtual water surplus and virtual water deficit,and then used the Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index(LMDI)model to identify the inherent mechanism of the imbalance of virtual water trade between provincial regions along the Yellow River Basin and the other four regions in China.The results show that:1)in provincial regions along the Yellow River Basin,the less developed the economy was,the larger the contribution of the agricultural sector in virtual water trade,while the smaller the contribution of the industrial sector.2)Due to the large output of agricultural products,the upstream and midstream provincial regions of the Yellow River Basin had a virtual water surplus,with a net outflow of virtual water of 2.7×10^(8) m^(3) and 0.9×10^(8) m^(3),respectively.3)provincial regions along the Yellow River Basin were in a virtual water deficit with the rest of China,and the decisive factor was the active degree of trade with the outside.This study would be beneficial to illuminate the trade-related water use issues in provincial regions along the Yellow River Basin,which has farreaching practical signific-ance for alleviating water scarcity.

Research and Analysis of the Sino-US Agricultural Trade in Current Decade

China has a large population, so the supply of agricultural products is very essential, and agricultural trade plays an important role. According to the data from the United Nations’ commodity trade, the rate of agricultural products trade development between China and the United States is declining since 2012, and China has kept perennial trade disadvantage for a long period of time. In order to change the current trade situation, we must make in-depth analysis on the two countries’ agricultural products trade status and their characteristics, thus target to development of trade strategy. This paper first introduces the current imbalance situation of the agricultural trade between China and the United States, then analyzes the causes of trade imbalance and its impact. Finally, some relevant countermeasures are putting forward, such as expanding the scale of the economy and agriculture;narrowing the gap between international and domestic regions and improving the quality and safety of agricultural products.

Recalculating Sino-US Trade Balance Using the Ownership-Based Statistical Method

Using the trade statistical method based on asset ownership,this paper recalculated Sino-US bilateral trade volume and the result indicates that against traditional trade statistics,Chinese exports to the US reduced by an average of 51%while Chinese imports from the US increased by an average of 41%between 2004 and 2010.Balance of trade is in the range between US$2,189 billion of deficit and US$12.77 billion of surplus on the part of China,which are far smaller than the balance of Sino-US trade calculated by traditional statistical method.In order to reflect the real scale of China's foreign trade and effectively respond to Sino-US trade frictions,it is necessary for China to establish its trade statistics system based on asset ownership.

Research on Rebalance of Economic Globalization and Sino-US Trade Friction

With the development of science and technology, informationization and economic globalization are developing faster and faster, and their impact on the world's economy and trade is also growing. The United States started the rebalancing strategy with tax reform as the starting point, and had large-scale trade frictions with China. How to avoid economic and trade frictions and promote sustainable economic development has become an important issue facing all countries. Although the economic and trade relations between the two countries are generally in a stable state, the friction in the trade field between the two countries exists in every stage of their economic and trade cooperation from beginning to end. The occurrence of trade friction not only affects the development of bilateral trade and regional economic development, but also may lead to a worldwide economic crisis. This paper analyzes the new forms of trade friction faced by the two countries under economic globalization through the friction between China and the United States in trade. With a view to promoting the sound development of trade between the two countries.

Causes of the exchange rate with the U.S. trade deficit

With debate that the U.S. trade deficit is due to overestimate exchange rate of RMB, the paper pointed out that exchange rate is not the main factor for the formation of balance of payments on trade. U.S. trade deficit is largely due to the current international monetary system, international division of labor and the trade structure determined by it, low savings rates and other factors.

基于农产品进出口贸易视角的农业机械化发展研究

为推进全程全面绿色高效农业机械化发展,基于农产品进出口贸易的视角分析农业机械化存在的短板弱项问题。目前我国农业存在贸易逆差逐年增加、主要农产品贸易逆差扩大、劳动密集型农产品比较优势逐渐消失、主要农产品自给率较低等发展现状。在农业机械化方面,小农经济及二元经济结构现状制约着适度规模经营的发展进度,农业规模化种植的生产效益还未充分体现;全程全面高质高量农业机械还不充分;全程农业机械化种植农艺技术推广应用还需加强。农业机械化发展应立足于保障粮食安全与提高农业经营主体经济效益的基本定位,关键在于提高农产品生产效率,改善农产品质量,提高农产品国际竞争力。基于上述分析,提出推进适度规模经营、推动短板弱项农业装备创新发展、优化农业机械化支持政策、推进先进适用农艺技术推广应用、强化农产品初加工装备研发及推广等发展建议。

中国对东盟数字产品贸易长期巨额逆差分析

中国对东盟的数字产品贸易长期处于巨额贸易逆差地位,并且贸易逆差呈现出“先升后稳”的发展态势。中国对东盟数字产品贸易长期巨额逆差的主要原因包括:全球产业链分工下中国大量进口东盟的电子元器件产品而加工组装后出口美欧等市场,中美战略竞争背景下美国对中国在东盟市场数字产品贸易的挤压打压,东盟国家对数字产品的消费能力有待提升,东盟国家数字产品贸易的营商环境有待改善,中国数字产品的市场拓展能力有待提高等。为此,中国应全面加强在“一带一路”和RCEP框架下的高层沟通与对接,努力帮助东盟国家消减数字产品贸易壁垒与障碍,持续加强中国企业在东盟的市场开发和本地化策略执行力度,深入开展数字产品贸易的标准与规则制定。

特朗普政府及新冠疫情对全球经济的影响回顾——聚焦中美关系

由于美国前总统特朗普的“美国优先”对华政策,2018年开始的中美贸易战以及随后的新冠疫情促使中美贸易摩擦尖锐化。这场因贸易逆差引发的冲突不仅升级为两国之间的关税争端,还扩大到知识产权争端、不公平产业政策、技术霸权、国家安全风险、人权问题、国家体制和意识形态问题等。2021年上台的美国拜登政府尝试扩展以民主价值观为纽带的联盟体系,制衡发展中的中国。另一方面,中国希望通过自身努力实现国内产业结构升级,提出“一带一路”倡议推动国际合作。世界经济正朝着形成独立经济集团的方向发展,中美两国在争夺先进战略产业和企业的同时,也有可能诞生一个新的经济集团。政治上意识形态的冲突将加剧,但在全球经济领域,中美两国之间的竞争将推动围绕“一带一路”倡议的非洲—欧亚经济基础设施的发展。

不平等国际货币体系下资本偏向流动与中美贸易失衡

中美贸易失衡是影响大国关系和高水平对外开放的关键问题,对其原因的探究具有重要的理论和现实意义。在不平等的国际货币体系下,资本流动过度偏向中心国家,可能导致实体经济的失衡,也会引起中美贸易失衡,而这一结构性因素并未得到充分重视。美元成为国际储备货币后,跨境资本流入使得美国的经常账户和贸易账户保持赤字状态,表现为美国和贸易伙伴的贸易失衡。非关税因素在美国贸易赤字传导中发挥关键作用,尤其是贸易伙伴对美国的资本输出规模越大、全球价值链参与度越高、制造业规模越大,其与美国的贸易失衡规模就越大。如果国际货币体系继续以美元为中心,美国的对外贸易将依然保持逆差,并持续向其贸易伙伴传导,目前这一现象在中美贸易失衡中得到体现,未来也可能在美国和其他经济体的双边贸易中显现。在美国对外贸易平衡与维护美元的国际储备地位难以兼顾的情况下,贸易争端并非解决中美贸易失衡的可行方式。推进人民币国际化并促进中国金融市场高质量发展,能够减少对美元体系的依赖,有助于缩小中美贸易不平衡。
