This article presents an analysis of the literature on systemic risk measurement methods. Only the recent global crisis has particularly attracted the attention of researchers on systemic risk measurement. Global challenges such as Big Data, AI, IoF, etc. also have an impact on expanding the systemic risk measurement capabilities. The growing number of publications in the last decade opens the door to deeper insights into the systemic risk measurement features, summarizing the contribution of research and analyse the mainstream research on systemic risk, identify the strengths and weaknesses of the studies.
Agriculture is often characterized by high variability of production outcomes, agricultural commodities prices are extremely fluctuating, and segmented agricultural markets will be influenced mainly by local supply and demand conditions, while more globally integrated markets will be significantly affected by international production dynamics.

In this paper, we model the effects of electricity generation on multiple environmental pressures. Given the environmental considerations, we assume a decrease in the carbon footprint and adjust the energy-mix by increasing the use of renewables. We combined a footprint approach and pinch analysis to devise the optimal energy-mixes and quantify the resulting environmental impacts.
Agriculture in Lithuania, Poland and Slovenia experienced drastic changes after the accession to the EU. Entrepreneurial competencies are demanded to deal with these changes. Therefore, entrepreneurship and competencies of dairy farmers were studied by means of a survey among 334, 334 and 362 dairy farmers in Lithuania, Poland and Slovenia respectively. These countries were considered to reflect farm communities in Central and Eastern European and other similar countries.

The aim is to estimate the level of shadow economy in the regions of Lithuania during the year of 2012-2016 after having identified causal factors in this article. The topic is very relevant to such countries of transition economy like Lithuania, where huge separation exists between regions and big cities. Deeper social problems in regions, lack of job places, absence of investments and emigration to bigger cities of a country or abroad create conditions for the growth of criminal offenses and shadow economy.

In the context of shortage of natural resources in Ukraine, the problem of evaluating efficiency of the implementation of renewable energy sources (RES) becomes of particular importance and comes in first place, since its solution will reduce the energy dependence of the state. Theoretical, methodological and practical issues of diversification of energy sources and evaluation of their effectiveness have found their development in modern works of domestic and foreign scientists.

Green growth has become a new direction for Chinese economic development in the 21st century. Indeed, sustainable agricultural development is particularly important in China due to limits on resources and the presence of the largest population in the world.

This paper discusses and elicits consumer attitudes towards industrial carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and storage (ICCS) products and technologies. It presents a comprehensive review of the relevant research literature on consumer attitudes towards ICCS represented by the willingness-to-pay (WTP) and willingness-to-accept (WTA) negative externalities and outcomes of the carbon capture and storage (the so-called “not-in-my-backyard” (NIMBY) approach).

This paper aims at measuring productivity and efficiency of China’s three most important grain crops-rice, wheat and maize-as well as identifying the main directions of technical change prevailing in their production. The bias-corrected Malmquist production indices are employed to measure the technical changes (TCs) in terms of input-saving or input-using in China’s grain production, by using provincial aggregate data obtained from the National Farm Production Costs and Returns Survey.

This paper constructs a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model to analyze the effects of energy price, technology, and disaster shocks on China's Energy-Environment-Economy (3E) system. It also studies stylized facts, as well as co-integration and error correction dynamic analyses, of this system.
