The Impact

This study aims to analyze the impact of the BPNT program on household consumption and consumption patterns of BPNT recipient households in Mengwi District, Badung Regency. This research was conducted in Mengwi District, Badung Regency using a questionnaire distributed to respondents with a large sample size of 96 KPM.

Grassland Types

Grassland ecosystems, as the basic natural resources in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, are becoming increasingly sensitive to human intervention, leading to deterioration in fragile ecosystems. The goal of this study was to describe the restoration policy-oriented adoptive changes to basic household consumption patterns of food, fuel, and water, and their spatial distribution by grassland types in the region. Basic household consumption data were collected in the meadow steppe (Hulun Buir), typical steppe (Xilin Gol), and semi-desert steppe (Ordos) ecosystems using structured questionnaires administered to 209 herders and farmers. In 2010, the householders’ intake comprised a low amount of agri-crops, including staple foods, vegetables and fruit with a high amount of meat, which still dominated the patterns of food consumption. However, the number of households preferring this pattern is decreasing and higher amounts of agri-crop and lower amounts of meat consumption pattern is increasing. From 1995 to 2010, fuel consumption patterns changed from being dominated by bio-fuels (dung) to being dominated mainly by electricity and gas. However, bio-fuel remains a major energy source for daily life in the meadow steppe ecosystem. In all three surveyed grassland types, the use of coal, electricity and gas increased from 1995 to 2010. The source of domestic water in all three surveyed areas is from groundwater, with an increasing trend to use tap water from a public supply rather than from privately owned wells.

This paper explores the relationship between government debt and private consumption for Malta. In particular, it attempts to find evidence in favor or against the proposition that the consumption behavior of Maltese households follows the Ricardian Equivalence Theorem. The empirical findings from this analysis suggest that household consumption behavior in Malta is not Ricardian. The resulting lack of evidence supporting the presence of a cointegrating relationship between private consumption and public debt indicates that there is no long run relationship amongst these two variables. However, the results obtained from a subsequent application of a vector auto regressive generalized impulse response function suggests that in the short-term a rise in public debt does positively influence private household consumption. This implies that Keynesian theory may be better suited at explaining the underlying behavior of Maltese households in response to changes in the level of public debt, supporting the view that Maltese households, on aggregate, exhibit a myopic behavior with regards to household consumption patterns. This suggests that to an extent, the Government may thus be able to take advantage of the implicit effectiveness of an expansionary fiscal stance to stimulate the economy through higher aggregate consumption, at least in the short run. However, it should be noted that in the case of Malta the non-presence of the Ricardian Equivalence Theorem may not necessarily imply a high level of effectiveness of Keynesian fiscal policy, given that Malta is a small and open economy characterized by a high level of import content in its aggregate demand components. The longer-term implications pertaining to the public debt burden on future generations should be taken into account by policy makers as higher levels of debt could result in an eventual contractionary fiscal stance, which would negatively impact the consumption pattern of future generations.

This research attempts to measure factors affecting pouch milk purchase in Nepalese context. Positivist approach was used and descriptive and causal study was designed. Questionnaire survey was done and structured questionnaires were designed to collect data. Subjects of the study were respondents who purchase pouch milk regularly for household consumption. 200 samples were taken based on convenience sampling method. Data were analyzed thoroughly by reliability analysis, descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and regression analysis. The research confirmed quality and brand name had influence on pouch milk purchase decision. No support was found for price, availability and promotion in pouch milk purchase context.

Degenerative processes can decrease the endurance in elderly that leads to health problem such as gout. Gout is a metabolic disorder, which is indicated by an increase uric acid in bloodstream (hyperuricemia). Factors affecting high level of uric acid are purine intake, physical activity and nutritional status. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between consumption pattern of purine source food, nutritional status and physical activity with uric acid level in elderly. The study design was cross sectional. The sample consisted of 100 subyekts at Puskesmas Kecamatan Makasar. The analytical used chi square. Patterns of food consumption of purine sources were measured using FFQ questionnaires which was then cut off into into 2 categories: low-moderate purine category with score <55 and high purine category with a score of ≥55 physical activity and nutritional status were measured using questionnaires, uric acid levels was obtained by looking at laboratory results or from patients' medical records. There was 10% of subyekts withlo- moderate uric acid levels and 90% of subyekts with high purine consumption pattern. Based on the results of chi square test there was a significant difference (p <0.05) between the consumption pattern of purine source food with normal uric acid and high uric acid. There was a relationship between consumption pattern of purine food source with uric acid level in elderly.

Abstract Substantial quantities of air pollution and related health impacts are ultimately attributable to household consumption. However, how consumption pattern affects air pollution impacts remains unclear. Here we show, of the 1.08 (0.74–1.42) million premature deaths due to anthropogenic PM2.5 exposure in China in 2012, 20% are related to household direct emissions through fuel use and 24% are related to household indirect emissions embodied in consumption of goods and services. Income is strongly associated with air pollution-related deaths for urban residents in which health impacts are dominated by indirect emissions. Despite a larger and wealthier urban population, the number of deaths related to rural consumption is higher than that related to urban consumption, largely due to direct emissions from solid fuel combustion in rural China. Our results provide quantitative insight to consumption-based accounting of air pollution and related deaths and may inform more effective and equitable clean air policies in China.

Biogas Technology

Climate change caused by global warming, and the growing scarcity of nonrenewable energy sources, have driven Pakistan to shift from a traditional energy consumption pattern to a renewable-energy-use pattern. The per capita energy consumption in rural Pakistan is very low, especially in rural areas heavily relying on traditional energy sources. This paper presents the extent of biogas technology adoption by Pakistani rural households and the factors affecting their decision to adopt the technology in three selected districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. The data were collected by interviewing 480 respondents by using a pretested and designed questionnaire. The results show that the household adoption rate of biogas technologies is low. The factors affecting the adoption decision of households included household income, access to credit, cultivated land area, the number of cattle in the household, education, and family size. The study also found fundamental barriers to the household adoption of biogas technologies, such as a lack of proper technical services by implementing organizations and insufficient governmental support. The authors make recommendations based on the findings to increase the adoption rate of biogas technologies in rural Pakistan.
