Under the background of the reform and opening-up, as well as continuous economic growth and development, China’s attractiveness for foreign direct investment (FDI hereinafter) has shown an increasing trend year after year. However, FDI is distributed unevenly in the three broad industrial sectors. Through our investigation to the utilization of agricultural FDI, we find that the size and scale of FDI utilized in agriculture lagged far behind with manufacturing and service sectors and distributed unevenly across geographical regions. The “agriculture, rural areas and farmers” issue has always been one of the most important and difficult issues in the process of China’s economic reform. The main focus of this paper is on what impacts FDI has on the agricultural sector of the macroeconomy and how we should fully utilize FDI in order to alleviate trade deficit in agricultural products and enhance the international competitiveness of agricultural goods in China.

Does Immigration Promote the Investment of the Monopolistic Firm?

In the present paper, we examine the effect of increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth on the optimal timing of investment of a firm that has a monopolistic power over the labor market. It is revealed that when the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is more than a threshold level, increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth accelerates the optimal timing of firms’ investment and enhances the economic growth, even if the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is formulated by the geometric Brownian motion, which is in sharp contrast to the standard result that an increase in the uncertainty postpones the optimal timing. With an increase in the immigrants over the past ten years, workforces in the host countries have been growing significantly to the extent that the immigrants represent 70% of the increase in the workforce in Europe, and 47% in the United States as OECD indicates. In the present paper, we attempted to investigate the effect of increased uncertainty caused by the growi...
