Research background: The relationship between the economy and the environment is one of the most frequently encountered issues recently. Today the issue of environmental sustainability is one of the problems faced by countries. Purpose: This study, it is aimed at investigating the relationship between economic and environmental variables. Research methodology: The existence of the environmental Kuznets curve theory, in other words, the inverted U-connection between per capita carbon dioxide emissions, per capita ecological footprint, and per capita GDP in the examples of 10 developing countries is examined. We analyzed annual balanced panel data covering the period 1992–2014 for an inverted U-link between carbon dioxide emissions and ecological footprint and per capita GDP. Westerlund’s cointegration test was applied as a cointegration test. The Common Correlated Effects Mean Group (CCEMG) and Augment Mean Group (AMG) estimator methods were applied for long-term parameter estimation. The Dumitrescu and Hurlin causality test was applied to determine the causal connections. Results: As a result of the study, a positive and significant effect of electricity consumption on carbon dioxide emission was determined in the long term in the model where the ecological footprint is the dependent variable. In the environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis, an inverted U-shaped relationship was determined. That is, the results confirming the existence of the environmental Kuznets curve have been determined. Finally, bidirectional causal links between carbon emissions and economic growth, between carbon dioxide emissions and the square of economic growth, and between carbon dioxide emissions and electricity consumption; It is observed between the ecological footprint and economic growth, between the ecological footprint and the square of economic growth, and between the ecological footprint and electricity consumption. It is expected that this article will make a significant contribution to the literature with the important results obtained by using both an ecological footprint and carbon dioxide emission as dependent variables. Novelty: In this study, unlike other studies, two models were created with both CO2 emissions and the ecological footprint data as environmental variables.

“…The findings report bidirectional causality between agriculture and environmental deterioration. Cetin et al (2022) use dynamic panel data to evaluate the presence of the agriculture-induced EKC hypothesis in 47 developing countries from 1976 to 2017. According to the DOLS and FMOLS long-run results, there is an inverse U-shaped link between income and carbon emissions, whereas agricultural output has a negative effect on environmental quality.…”

PurposeThe main objective of the present study is to figure out the effect of agricultural development on environmental pollution in the Indian context over the period 1970 to 2018. The study also tests the applicability of pollution haven hypothesis.Design/methodology/approachTo begin with, the authors test the stationarity of the variables by using the DF-GLS and KPSS tests. To examine the relationship between agricultural development and carbon emissions, the study applies nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag cointegration test developed by Shin et al. (2014). The study also applies Wald test to test the asymmetry between agriculture and environmental pollution.FindingsThe findings of this study indicate that agricultural development in India is good for carbon mitigation in the long run whereas energy consumption degrades the environment. The findings document the existence of an asymmetric association between agricultural development and environmental pollution. Furthermore, the results did not find any presence of pollution haven hypothesis for India.Originality/valueThis is the only empirical work that assesses the contribution of agricultural sector to carbon mitigation in the Indian context. The novelty of the study is further ensured by the very nature that it is the first study that examines the effect of agricultural sector on environment in an asymmetric configuration.

“…In the middle east region, from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, an estimation by Emam found that agriculture affected the environment negatively from 1990 to 2019 period using ARDL bounds methods [39]. Data from 47 developing countries during the 1976-2017 period using dynamic panel data estimators also showed that agricultural production reduced environmental quality [40]. The research findings suggest that the relationship between agricultural economic growth and environmental quality is subject to context as it can either be positive or negative.…”

One of the most affected economies by climate change is the agricultural sector. Climate change measured by temperature and precipitation has an impact on agricultural output, which in turn affects the economy of the sector. It is anticipated that using renewable energy will lower carbon emissions that are directly related to climate change. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of carbon dioxide emissions (CO2), renewable energy usage, and climate change on South Africa’s agricultural sector from 1972 to 2021. The nexus was estimated using an Auto Regressive-Distributed Lag (ARDL) Bounds test econometric technique. In the short run, findings indicated that climate change reduces agricultural economic growth and carbon dioxide emissions increase as agricultural economic growth increases. The use of renewable energy was insignificant in the short and long run. Carbon dioxide emissions granger causes temperature and renewable energy unilateral. An ARDL analysis was performed to evaluate the short and long-term relationship between agricultural economic growth, climate change, carbon dioxide emissions and renew able energy usage. The study adds new knowledge on the effects of climate change and carbon emissions on the agricultural economy alongside the use of renewable energy which can be used to inform economic policy on climate change and the energy nexus in the agricultural sector. Study findings point to the prioritization of biomass commercialization, rural and commercial farming sector bioenergy regulations and socioeconomic imperatives research is crucial in order to promote inclusive participation in the production of renewable energy.
