Aims and Scopes

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy focuses on the intersection of agricultural economics, policy analysis, and applied economic theory. The journal aims to provide insights into the economic aspects of agricultural practices, food security, and rural development through empirical research and policy evaluation.
  1. Agricultural Economics and Policy Analysis:
    The journal places a strong emphasis on the economic analysis of agricultural policies and their impacts on various stakeholders, including farmers, consumers, and the environment.
  2. Food Security and Nutrition:
    Research related to food security, food assistance programs, and nutritional outcomes is a core area, addressing the challenges of food access and quality across different populations.
  3. Environmental Economics:
    The journal explores the economic implications of environmental policies and practices in agriculture, focusing on sustainability, resource management, and climate change adaptation.
  4. Technological Innovation and Adoption:
    A significant focus on the adoption of new technologies in agriculture, including machine learning, blockchain, and precision farming, as well as their economic impacts.
  5. Social Dimensions of Agriculture:
    The journal includes studies on the socio-economic factors affecting agricultural practices, such as gender disparities, racial equity, and rural development.
  6. Economic Modeling and Statistical Analysis:
    Methodologically, the journal employs quantitative approaches, including econometric modeling and machine learning techniques, to analyze agricultural and economic data.
Recent publications reflect a shift in focus towards emerging themes in agricultural economics, highlighting the interplay between technology, sustainability, and socio-economic factors. These trends indicate a growing recognition of the complexity of agricultural systems and the need for interdisciplinary approaches.
  1. Impact of Climate Change on Agriculture:
    There is an increasing emphasis on understanding how climate change affects agricultural production, food security, and rural livelihoods, indicating a need for adaptive strategies.
  2. Digital Transformation in Agriculture:
    Research on the adoption and impact of digital technologies, including blockchain, AI, and data analytics in agricultural practices, is becoming more prevalent as the sector modernizes.
  3. Equity and Inclusion in Agricultural Policy:
    Emerging themes focus on the social dimensions of agriculture, particularly addressing issues of equity, race, and gender within agricultural economics and policy.
  4. Food Systems Resilience:
    Recent studies are increasingly concentrating on the resilience of food systems to shocks (e.g., pandemics, trade conflicts), highlighting the need for robust systems that can withstand disruptions.
  5. Behavioral Economics in Agriculture:
    There is a growing interest in applying behavioral economic theories to understand consumer behavior in food choices and the adoption of sustainable practices.

Declining or Waning

While certain themes continue to thrive, some areas of research appear to be diminishing in frequency or relevance within the journal. This may reflect broader shifts in the field of agricultural economics or changing priorities among researchers.
  1. Traditional Agricultural Marketing:
    Research focused on conventional agricultural marketing strategies has seen a decline, possibly due to the increasing complexity of global supply chains and the rise of digital platforms.
  2. Single-Factor Economic Analyses:
    Studies that examine agricultural economics from a purely single-factor perspective (e.g., price analysis without considering broader economic or social contexts) are becoming less common.
  3. Rural-Urban Migration Studies:
    There has been a noticeable decrease in studies examining rural-urban migration patterns, which may be overshadowed by more pressing issues related to food security and climate change.
  4. Historical Agricultural Policy Analysis:
    While historical perspectives are valuable, there has been a waning interest in purely historical analyses of agricultural policies, with more emphasis now on contemporary issues and forward-looking solutions.
  5. Conventional Crop Production Practices:
    Research on traditional crop production methods is decreasing, as the focus shifts toward sustainable practices and innovations in agriculture.
