- 요약In the agricultural sector, forecasts are vital for producers, commodity and financial market participants, and researchers. My three dissertation essays focus on agricultural forecast and agricultural finance analysis, including the ex post evaluation and forecasting modeling.The first essay conducts optimality tests on the World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) forecasts for corn, soybeans, and wheat published from 1988 to 2019. Motivated by the long-lasting debate on whether WASDE forecasts are optimal, we employ an unknown loss method for ex post evaluation, which assumes that the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) forecasters' loss function is unknown. Our results suggest that USDA forecasters generally realize optimality during the data-generating process. Our findings are consistent with previous studies when narrowing down the more general unknown loss function to the symmetric or asymmetric loss function which assumes a specific shape for the loss function. This study provides implications, based on the unknown loss function, that the USDA forecasters can boost their information set as an alternative way to improve the WASDE forecasts.The second essay aims to investigate the factors affecting the net interest income of U.S. agricultural banks, using data collected from the Uniform Bank Performance Report (UBPR). Several problems emerge along with the non-agricultural lending occurring in agricultural areas, drawing significant attention from market participants and researchers. The role of banks in the agricultural areas is decisive for financial stabilization. Their net interest income is fundamental for driving profitability and managing risk. Our results suggest that the real positive effect of agricultural loans on the net interest income may be long underestimated. Additionally, low liquidity eliminates the positive effect of loans on the net interest income.The third essay explores the performance of the innovative deep learning methods for forecasting the net interest income. Financial forecasting in banking becomes a crucial ingredient of decision-making to comply with regulations and governance. Particular priority was given to risk management when concentrating on agricultural banking. Although there are long-lasting concerns about applying deep learning in agricultural finance management, its contributions to banks' profitability and stability are significant. Our results document the deep learning method as complementary to the traditional linear model to achieve predictability and maintain interpretability. Additionally, a higher demand for loans, arising from the decline in farm income, may dampen the sustainability of agricultural banking due to increased credit risk.
