Commodity Price Forecasts, Futures Prices, and Pricing Models [PDF]
Management Science, 2019 Even though commodity-pricing models have been successful in fitting the term structure of futures prices and its dynamics, they do not generate accurate true distributions of spot prices. This paper develops a new approach to calibrate these models using not only observations of oil futures prices, but also analysts’ forecasts of oil spot prices.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Permanent oxidative dipole (POD) engineering overcomes the electronic uniformity of quinoline‐linked COFs. By enhancing the dipole moment to 2.08 D and lowering exciton binding energy to 20.3 meV, it constructs a robust built‐in electric field and spatially decoupled redox centers. This bypasses inherent kinetic bottlenecks, achieving a 4569 µmol g−1 h−

UNDERWRITING AGRICULTURAL COMMODITY PRICES [PDF]
Australian Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1983 Underwriting schemes are increasingly being used as a basis for price policy in Australian agricultural industries. These policies simultaneously increase average returns and reduce the risk faced by producers. In this paper, conditions are discussed under which such a combination of policy targets may be desirable.

Hemp Cultivation and Crop Diversification: Implications for Ecosystem Services in Kentucky
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the ecosystem benefits of expanding hemp cultivation by assessing its impact on crop diversity. Using scenario‐based simulations and fixed‐effect panel regressions with county‐level data in Kentucky, we find that increased hemp acreage tends to enhance crop diversity, improving water quality and bird diversity.

Temporary Programs, Lasting Questions: Ad Hoc Assistance in the U.S. Farm Safety Net
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Large ad hoc assistance programs have returned to U.S. farm policy since 2017, operating alongside a more developed safety net built around federally subsidized crop insurance, Title I commodity programs, and standing disaster assistance. This paper reviews the renewed use of ad hoc assistance, documents its recent scale using USDA data, and ...
