“…However, as revealed by the EKC hypothesis, this effort (EG) harms the environment [6]. For instance, there is an increase in emissions, temperature, deforestation, and water scarcity due to the increased demand for agricultural products [7][8][9]. Conservation efforts began in response to a growing awareness of environmental sustainability Sustainability 2022, 14, 2455 2 of 21 among various countries and consumers [10].…”

Global Challenges and Responses: Agriculture, Economic Globalization, and Environmental Sustainability in Central Asia

Economic globalization (EG) accelerates very fast in Central Asia. This could cause environmental degradation, according to the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis. The study aims to determine how the EG of agriculture impacts environmental sustainability, and to test the EKC hypothesis on the agricultural sector in six Central Asian countries. Particularly, some main hypotheses were proposed using secondary data from Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan from 1994 to 2019. This study uses five explanatory variables: agricultural exports value (EXP), agriculture forestry and fishing value-added (AVA), the exchange rate (EXR), total natural resource rents (RENT), and external debt stocks (DEBT), while the dependent variable in this study is the CO2 emissions from on-farm energy use (EMS), temperature changes (TEMP), and forest fires (FIRE). These data are analyzed using panel data regression. As a result, AVA and RENT raise EMS; EXC raises TEMP but lowers EMS; DEBT raises TEMP but can lower FIRE. Hence, we propose recommendations to improve this condition, including a clear roadmap, enhanced partnerships, and regional and international support.

“…There is a lot of deforestation due to the increased demand for agricultural products. This has been harmful to the environment because deforestation is done by burning or destroying trees [ 20 , 21 ]. In other cases, Duarte et al [ 22 ] argued that EG would threaten the achievement of sustainable water management.…”

The impacts of economic globalization on agricultural value added in developing countries

et al. 2021

Countries in the world have various indices for the implementation of economic globalization (EG). This refers to positive and negative impacts arising from its implementation, especially in agriculture. This sector is still a basic source of existence in developing countries. At the same time, these countries have been unable to optimize their agricultural value-added (AVA) and only earn a low level of income. That way, developing countries need to take advantage of EG to increase income from agricultural exports and farmers’ welfare. Other than that, there has been no study examining the impacts of EG on AVA in developing countries. So, this study intends to evaluate the impacts of the exchange rates, foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows, total agricultural export values, agricultural import duties, and fertilizer imports on AVA in developing countries. The panel data technique is used to assess its impact in 17 developing countries during 2006–2018. The study showed that FDI inflows and agricultural export values increase AVA in developing countries. In this study, EG positively impacts developing countries, but its implementation must pay attention to achieve sustainable development goals. We recommend developing countries focus on investments in human capital and technologies (or R&D), ensure foreign investors collaborate with local agricultural firms, increase agricultural exports, and create a conducive economic system

“…The existence of trade openness has a positive and significant effect on deforestation (Leblois et al, 2017;Faria & Almeida, 2016). However, in another study that examined over a significant research period, the findings of trade openness actually had a significant negative effect on deforestation (Nathaniel & Bekun, 2020;Yameogo, 2021).…”

“…Community agricultural activities are an important factor influencing deforestation (Leblois et al, 2017). Agricultural land has a significant effect on deforestation (Handalani, 2019;Ajanaku & Collins, 2021;Yameogo, 2021). The increase in land used for plantations and agriculture will sacrifice the existence of forests.…”

“…The Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) states that initially economic growth has the effect of increasing environmental degradation until it reaches a point where people realize the need for better environmental quality so that environmental degradation will decrease (Nikensari et al, 2019). Previous research has shown that there is a directly proportional relationship between economic growth and deforestation (Ahmed et al, 2015;Faria & Almeida, 2016;Nathaniel & Bekun, 2020;Yameogo, 2021). However, there is some conflicting research that economic growth has no significant effect on deforestation (Handalani, 2019).…”

Deforestation is a serious environmental problem in the OIC countries. From 1990 to 2016 based on 2019 OIC Environment Report data, compared to other groups outside the OIC, the OIC deforestation rate reached >10% on average, which was much higher. The focus of this study examines the effect of economic growth, agricultural land, and trade openness moderated by population density on deforestation. This study uses a quantitative approach and a Moderated Regression Analysis technique with a sample of 15 OIC countries from 2010-2019 taken from the purposive sampling method. The test results clarify that economic growth and agricultural land have a significant effect on the rate of deforestation, while the effect of trade openness is not significant on the rate of deforestation. From the results of the moderating variable, only agricultural land which has a significant effect on deforestation is moderated by population density. These results confirm Kuznets' environmental theory and environmental externality theory, and can be used as material for the government's evaluation to reduce deforestation rates and maintain forest sustainability according to SDG's No.15 agenda by considering demographic aspects such as population density. This study is limited to the 15 OIC countries that are the research sample due to their high forest fluctuations. s evaluation to reduce deforestation rates and maintain forest sustainability according to SDG's No.15 agenda by considering demographic aspects such as population density.
