Abstract:
This thesis aimed at study of relationship between country internal and external factors affecting exportation of Rubber-Ribbed Smoked Sheet No. 3 to China, using monthly secondary data from July 2012 to June 2014. This study employed Multiple Regression Models and Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) in data analysis of Rubber-Ribbed Smoked Sheet No. 3 exports to China based on time-series secondary data.
The research results found that the factors in this model could explain the quantity change of Rubber Ribbed Smoked Sheet No. 3 exports to China at 77.31%. The most affecting factor was Thai (F.O.B.) export price. A decrease by 1% of Thai (F.O.B.) export price would result in the volume of exports increased by 4.653%. The remaining factors that affected the export of Rubber Ribbed Smoked Sheet No. 3 were price of Tokyo Commodity Exchange, volume of passenger car production in China, production quantity of rubber smoked sheet of Thailand, (F.O.B.) export price of Viet Nam, foreign exchange rates, and China gross domestic product per capita.
The conclusion of this thesis suggested that the government, stakeholders in all sectors, policy makers and industry should work together to control of the production and export and to determine the fluctuation of price and yield in order to predict the market demand. Furthermore, it was suggested to the farmers and the exporters to understand the problems and the affecting of the problems in rubber markets which would help them to plan for solving out the problems of producing the rubbers for exporting.
