abstract: 'Purpose In this paper, the authors derive time-varying relative export
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
competitiveness (REC) of the Cambodian rice sector from 1995 to 2018 and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
examine the key determinants of the REC. Design/methodology/approach
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Three different REC indexes are calculated in this paper. The authors
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
also developed the relative symmetric export competitiveness (RSEC)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
index for calculation of comparative advantage. The short-run regression
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(SRR) model was applied for capturing the determinants of the REC.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Findings The study results reveal that Cambodia''s rice exports became
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
relatively competitive over time. The key findings suggest the Cambodian
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
REC was strengthened as a result of a successful implementation of rice
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policy and rectangular strategy. The benefits gained from EBA and BRI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
were found to be the factors contributed to the REC. The higher per
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
capita income had a positive effect on the REC, while higher domestic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
prices reduced the REC in some phases of the sectoral development.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Research limitations/implications Further research is needed in two
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
directions. First, the future studies might focus on other agro-products
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of Cambodia. Second, the development of the crop-specific factor
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
endowment (CFE) model to consider the effect of endowment factors on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
REC could be preferred in light of the data availability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Originality/value The research enriches the literature on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
agricultural trade and provides a basis for further studies. This work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
makes a few contributions. First, it is the first study on the REC
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analysis for the Cambodian rice sector. Second, the latest 24-year data
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sets were covered. Third, a wide range of comparisons of REC among the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
world''s top rice exporters was provided following implications of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
various economic policies and foreign policy strategies, such as RS, EBA
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and BRI.'
