Main Determinants

Foreign direct investment (FDI) is an important force to promote economic growth and social development in both developed and developing countries, while the distribution of FDI in the world and within countries is extremely uneven. This paper systematically summarizes the main determinants that affect the location choice of FDI in recent theoretical and empirical studies, including institution and investment environment, trade cost and industrial agglomeration, market size and natural resource, cultural distance and social network. Based on the work of this paper, it is helpful to better understand the location preference of multinational enterprises (MNEs) in FDI activities, and provide a reference basis for the host country to attract investment and promote economic growth.

The Impact

An ideal economy that is enhancing the welfare of society is the primary goal of a Nation. However, prosperity and economic development are distributed adequately in each region as well as in East Java. Some regions could develop faster instead of other regions that lead to a disparity between regions in the regency/city of East Java Province. For this reason, this research comprehensively aims to analyse how the impact of industrial agglomeration and regional inequality in East Java. In addition, this study also involves other variables, namely investment and economic growth. The data of the study were obtained from Statistics Indonesia and the Investment Office of East Java during the period 2014 to 2018. The findings indicate that agglomeration provides a key role in inequality in the East Java region. Furthermore, investment has a negative influence on regional inequality, while economic growth positively influences regional inequality in East Java.

Representative Farms

AbstractThis study evaluates the economic survivability of rice farms in the Delta area of Mississippi. A general whole-farm simulation model, FLIPSIM V, is used to simulate the operations of representative rice farms over a 10-year period. Although farm size did not change for any of the representative farms considered, the financial structure of these farms changed considerably. Crop mix was found to cause significant differences in the economic growth and financial viability of rice farms in the region.
