Headshot of Sheldon (Xiaodong) Du
My primary areas of research are agricultural and energy economics. I am interested in understanding production agriculture, its changing structure and adaptation to environmental, policy and technological changes, risk management and crop insurance choices, as well as commodity markets. My interests also include the economics of traditional and renewable energy, energy policy, and implications for agricultural markets.
