How Does the Consumers’ Attention Affect the Sale Volumes of New Energy Vehicles: Evidence From China’s Market

The promotion of new energy vehicles is a grand plan across countries to achieve carbon neutrality and air purification. The sale volume of new energy vehicles is affected by many factors, yet it is the attitude of consumers themselves that has the final decisive role. We use four representative Baidu search indexes as the variables representing the attention of consumers and take variables of economic, population, and income as control variables for regression analysis from the national and sub-economic regional perspectives respectively. Results show that search indexes of “new energy vehiclek.” “new energy vehicles battery”, and ‘charging pile’ all have significant positive impacts on the sales of new energy vehicles to varying degrees while the index of ‘automobile spontaneous combustion’ has a significant negative impact on the sale volume. This study, therefore, verifies that the consumer attention represented by search indexes is an important yet uncovered factor affecting the sale volume of new energy vehicles. Besides, due to people’s prejudice against spontaneous combustion accidents of new energy vehicles, consumers have a cognitive bias about the spontaneous combustion rate of new energy vehicles especially in less developed areas of China.

<p>Changes in strategic environment of economic globalization including disruptive innovation require agribusiness actors’ view adjustment. This paper discusses role of agri-entrepreneurs dealing with distrubictive innovation in agriculture. There are three elements of disrupsi innovation, i.e. (i) improvement levels acceptable to customer; (ii) improvement path when new agricultural commodities are introduced and refined through technological innovations; (iii) importance of different understanding between continuous and disruption innovations. Professional managers are encouraged to grow a new business expected to compete with the established ones. Agricultural business models for the upper-middle class consumers run by young entrepreneur produce new products with premium prices but the sale volume is limited. It is important to inspire young agri- entrepreneurs who accustomed to disrupted innovation to develop business based on their goals and market segments.</p><p> </p><p>Abstrak</p><p>Perubahan lingkungan strategis berupa globalisasi ekonomi termasuk disrupsi inovasi memerlukan cara pandang baru pelaku usaha agribisnis.

Perencanaan Persediaan Bahan Baku Produk Makanan dengan Mempertimbangkan Masa Kedaluwarsa dan Unit Diskon di PT.X

ABSTRAKPerencanaan persediaan bahan baku pada industri makanan yang memiliki masa kedaluwarsa merupakan salah satu hal yang sangat penting untuk dilakukan. Hal ini disebabkan oleh berkurangnya nilai seiring berjalannya waktu yang diakibatkan oleh bahan baku makanan yang kedaluwarsa. Ketika bahan baku tersebut telah melewati batas kedaluwarsa, maka bahan baku tersebut tidak dapat digunakan sehingga menimbulkan biaya kedaluwarsa yang besar dan terjadinya kekurangan bahan baku yang dapat menimbulkan kerugian kehilangan penjualan. Perusahaan harus dapat menentukan jumlah pemesanan yang tepat sehingga dapat mengurangi biaya-biaya yang diakibatkan oleh bahan baku kedaluwarsa, Pada penelitian ini akan dibahas mengenai suatu model matematis persediaan yang mempertimbangkan faktor kedaluwarsa dan penawaran diskon harga bahan baku yang ditawarkan oleh pemasok ke perusahaan dengan jumlah pembelian tertentu. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah menentukan kuantitas pemesanan bahan baku yang optimal dan lama waktu siklus pemesanan yang optimal yang dapat meminimumkan total biaya persediaan bahan baku per tahun.Kata kunci: Persediaan, masa kedaluwarsa, unit diskon, lost sales ABSTRACTPlanning the supply of raw ingredient in the food industry that has an expiration period is one of the most important things to do. This is caused by the decrease in value over time due to expired raw ingredient. When the raw ingredient has passed the expiry date, then the raw ingredient cannot be used, causing huge expiration costs and a shortage of raw ingredients that can result in loss of sale volume. Companies must be able to determine the right amount of ordering so that it can reduce the costs caused by expired raw ingredients. This research will discuss a mathematical model of inventory that takes into account expiration factors and offers discounts on raw ingredient prices offered by suppliers to companies by the order quantity. The results of this study are to determine the optimal quantity of raw ingredient ordering and the optimal length of the order cycle that can minimize the total cost of inventory of raw ingredients per year.Keywords:inventory, expired time, unit discout, lost sales

Assessment of Provision of Extension Services and Advocacy on Donkey Health and Welfare in Kenya

Aim: To determine type of benefits from keeping donkeys, challenges facing donkey farmers and how to streamline supply of medicines for treatment of donkeys in Kenya. Study Design: A descriptive study conducted in selected regions where donkey welfare projects are implemented and other regions without these projects between the months of May and August, 2018. Methodology: Data collected from donkey owners and users, animal health service providers, regulatory body, and agro-vets using semi-structured and check list questionnaires. A total of 156 questionnaires administered to donkey owners and users and 87 animal health providers. Results: Benefits of keeping donkeys included income obtained from transportation services, sale of surplus donkeys in a herd and hiring them out for a fee, such income are used for paying school fees for children and medical care. On average donkeys contributed about 20% of household incomes from livestock. Donkeys often suffered from myriad of challenges: infestation with endoparasites, wounds, colic, fractures, lameness, pneumonia, babesiosis, trypanosomiasis and zoonoses including tetanus and rabies. Sale volume for medicines used to treat donkey diseases in agro-vets (shops selling agricultural inputs including veterinary drugs) was approximately 15%, while percentage of donkey cases treated by animal health providers was about 7% of total caseload. Level of need for response to donkey cases by animal health providers was ranked 4th on a priority scale of 1-5. Furthermore, agro-vets did not stock medicines for pain relief. Moreover, differences exist between regions where donkey welfare projects are implemented as compared to other regions on level of knowledge of animal health providers on type of medicines used for treatment of clinical cases in donkeys, requirements for regulation of veterinary practices and types of veterinary providers (P = 0.05). Conclusions: These results support prioritization of training on early recognition for conditions which compromises wellbeing of donkeys and access to pain relief medicines.

Human wellbeing and automotive industry: correlations in the era of economical digitalization

This research studies the relation between human wellbeing and automotive industry, as to whether the performance of automobile industry translates to an overall well-being of the populace. The study is based on secondary-data, and mainly takes into account the Prosperity-Index / ranking and its possible linkage with automotive sale volume of the nations. Findings of this study confirms that that the higher the prosperity index or ranking, the higher the automotive sales volume for most of the nations but several factor should be taken in to consideration, for example India automotive sale volume is bigger than the automotive sales volume of France but France prosperity rank is 19 and India in on 88 rank, it is because of the size and population of the country, India might have 10 times more population than France when divided among the population France may investing much more than India on their citizen. Findings reveal that Canada leads the table on first position with Australia on second position in the prosperity ranking, due to they provide enough opportunities for their people to live a good and healthy lives and these can be observed in terms of good automotive sales volume by these two nations. Further, finding also reveals that the automotive sales number of United States of America or several other countries have large value but that does not mean that they are also good in ranking in Prosperity Index which implies that the prosperity ranks has no direct relation with the automotive sales volume that a country generates.
