3 Simulation Analysis

The dynamic simulation process based on the ARIMAmodeland multiple regression model to predict feed grain demandis shown in Figure 1

The dynamic prediction algorithm of feed grain demandis shown in Figure 1 define the year of 1981 as 119905 = 1 andthus 2007 as 119905 = 27 The feed grain demand of urban andrural population is respectively expressed as 119910

0(119905) and 119910

1(119905)

the three factors are respectively defined as 1199091(119905) 1199092(119905) and

1199093(119905) According to the simulation process shown in Figure 1

the forecast process of feed grain demand in this paper isshown in the following

grain demand 1199100(119905) (119905 = 28) and rural feed grain

demand 1199101(119905) (119905 = 28)

(4) Repeat (3) Urban and rural long-term prediction offeed grain demand can be completed

31 Correlation Calculation The data about the feed graindemand urban and rural population urbanization level andurban and rural residents per capita income between 1981 and2007 are selected fromRural China Statistical Yearbook [13] asthe training data meanwhile the data from 2008 to 2012 areselected as the precision test data as shown in Table 1The feedgrain demand can be got by the sum of per capita meat eggmilk and aquatic product consumption multiplied by theurban and rural population respectively and then accordingto the conversion ratio of feed grain to meat which is 37 to 1the conversion ratio to egg which is 27 to 1 the conversionratio to milk which is 05 to 1 and the conversion ratio toaquatic material which is 04 to 1 to get the final result [14 15]

The correlation degree and relational order are obtainedby using the grey correlation analysis method while thedata about the feed grain demand are calculated in Table 1as reference sequence at the same time urban and ruralpopulation urbanization level and urban and rural residentsper capita income are calculated as comparative sequenceThe results are shown in Table 2

As shown in Table 2 the correlation degree and relationalorder of various factors which affected the urban and ruralfeed grain demand are not completely the same on the basisof that it will be able to improve the prediction accuracy bypredicting towns and rural feed grain demand separately

32 Impact Factors Prediction ARIMA(119901 119889 119902) modeldescribed in Section 23 is adopted to predict the threefactors including urban and rural population urbanizationlevel and urban and rural residents per capita income Theprediction of impact factors for urban feed grain demand in2008 is taken as an example in this paper and the results areshown in Table 3 The forecast data will be used to forecastfeed grain demand in 2008

33 Prediction for Feed Grain Demand by Using MultipleRegression Themultiple regressionmodel of urban and ruraldemand for feed grain demands is set up respectively in2008 by usingEVIEWS statistical software while three factorsmentioned above are taken as independent variables andChinarsquos urban and rural residentsrsquo feed grain demand is takenas the dependent variable The models are shown as follows

In the above multivariate regression model of urban andrural feed grain demand the model prediction coefficientof different years will change dynamically as the change ofcorrelation of feed grains and affecting factors then it formsa dynamic forecast system

34 Simulation Results The value of feed grain demand in2008ndash2012 can be predicted according to (10) and (11) theresult is shown in Table 4 A grey forecasting model byusing residual error correction on the feed grain demand inliterature [16] is also given in Table 4

From Table 4 and combined with the feed grain demandbetween urban and rural areas since 1981 it can be seen thatthe basic trend of feed grain demand overall present risessteadily [17 18] The feed grain demand increased by 4 timesand the average annual growth rate is 148 from 1981 to2007 Analysis shows that the income level of our countryresidents is low and the consumption structure is unitarymainly grain consumption before the reform and open policyIn recent years the demand for animal products structure ischanging and it mainly displays in the increasing demand formeat eggs milk and aquatic products because peoplersquos livingstandards have been continuously improved

In addition compared with the grey system model inliterature [16] the joint dynamic prediction model in thispaper can track the change of impact factors so it can achievegood long-term forecasts Meanwhile the mean relative errorof proposed model is 046 and has higher superiority inforecasting precision compared with traditional grey fore-casting model of which the mean relative error is 64 Itis fully illustrated that the dynamic impact factor regressionanalysis method used to predict the feed grain demand isfeasible

4 Conclusion

The dynamic influence factors in combination with multi-variate regression analysis method are used in this paperto forecast the feed grain demand in China since 2008Prediction results show that Chinarsquos demand for feed grainswill increase year by year in the next 10 years and the averagerelative error between the actual and predicted value byusing the dynamic impact factor regression model is 046superior to the traditional grey system model At presentChinarsquos feed grain demand represents more than 30 of thetotal demand for grain the proportion of which feed graindemand on total demand for grain increased year by yearshows the increasing influence of feed grains on food security

3 Simulation Analysis

The dynamic simulation process based on the ARIMAmodeland multiple regression model to predict feed grain demandis shown in Figure 1

The dynamic prediction algorithm of feed grain demandis shown in Figure 1 define the year of 1981 as 119905 = 1 andthus 2007 as 119905 = 27 The feed grain demand of urban andrural population is respectively expressed as 119910

0(119905) and 119910

1(119905)

the three factors are respectively defined as 1199091(119905) 1199092(119905) and

1199093(119905) According to the simulation process shown in Figure 1

the forecast process of feed grain demand in this paper isshown in the following

Computational Intelligence and Neuroscience 3

(1) When t = 1sim27 calculate the correlation degree andrelational sequence respectively between 119910

0(119905) and

1199101(119905) and 119909

1(119905) 1199092(119905) and 119909

3(119905)

(2) Use ARIMA model to predict 1199091(119905) 1199092(119905) and 119909

3(119905)

when 119905 gt 27(3) Use multiple regressionmethod to predict urban feed

grain demand 1199100(119905) (119905 = 28) and rural feed grain

demand 1199101(119905) (119905 = 28)

(4) Repeat (3) Urban and rural long-term prediction offeed grain demand can be completed

31 Correlation Calculation The data about the feed graindemand urban and rural population urbanization level andurban and rural residents per capita income between 1981 and2007 are selected fromRural China Statistical Yearbook [13] asthe training data meanwhile the data from 2008 to 2012 areselected as the precision test data as shown in Table 1The feedgrain demand can be got by the sum of per capita meat eggmilk and aquatic product consumption multiplied by theurban and rural population respectively and then accordingto the conversion ratio of feed grain to meat which is 37 to 1the conversion ratio to egg which is 27 to 1 the conversionratio to milk which is 05 to 1 and the conversion ratio toaquatic material which is 04 to 1 to get the final result [14 15]

The correlation degree and relational order are obtainedby using the grey correlation analysis method while thedata about the feed grain demand are calculated in Table 1as reference sequence at the same time urban and ruralpopulation urbanization level and urban and rural residentsper capita income are calculated as comparative sequenceThe results are shown in Table 2

As shown in Table 2 the correlation degree and relationalorder of various factors which affected the urban and ruralfeed grain demand are not completely the same on the basisof that it will be able to improve the prediction accuracy bypredicting towns and rural feed grain demand separately

32 Impact Factors Prediction ARIMA(119901 119889 119902) modeldescribed in Section 23 is adopted to predict the threefactors including urban and rural population urbanizationlevel and urban and rural residents per capita income Theprediction of impact factors for urban feed grain demand in2008 is taken as an example in this paper and the results areshown in Table 3 The forecast data will be used to forecastfeed grain demand in 2008

33 Prediction for Feed Grain Demand by Using MultipleRegression Themultiple regressionmodel of urban and ruraldemand for feed grain demands is set up respectively in2008 by usingEVIEWS statistical software while three factorsmentioned above are taken as independent variables andChinarsquos urban and rural residentsrsquo feed grain demand is takenas the dependent variable The models are shown as follows

rural residents per capita incomeThepredicted value of threefactors in 2008 was typed in (10) and (11) respectively thenthe value of urban and rural feed grain demand in 2008 can becalculated the results are 9807134 tons and 66637249 tons

In the above multivariate regression model of urban andrural feed grain demand the model prediction coefficientof different years will change dynamically as the change ofcorrelation of feed grains and affecting factors then it formsa dynamic forecast system

34 Simulation Results The value of feed grain demand in2008ndash2012 can be predicted according to (10) and (11) theresult is shown in Table 4 A grey forecasting model byusing residual error correction on the feed grain demand inliterature [16] is also given in Table 4

From Table 4 and combined with the feed grain demandbetween urban and rural areas since 1981 it can be seen thatthe basic trend of feed grain demand overall present risessteadily [17 18] The feed grain demand increased by 4 timesand the average annual growth rate is 148 from 1981 to2007 Analysis shows that the income level of our countryresidents is low and the consumption structure is unitarymainly grain consumption before the reform and open policyIn recent years the demand for animal products structure ischanging and it mainly displays in the increasing demand formeat eggs milk and aquatic products because peoplersquos livingstandards have been continuously improved

In addition compared with the grey system model inliterature [16] the joint dynamic prediction model in thispaper can track the change of impact factors so it can achievegood long-term forecasts Meanwhile the mean relative errorof proposed model is 046 and has higher superiority inforecasting precision compared with traditional grey fore-casting model of which the mean relative error is 64 Itis fully illustrated that the dynamic impact factor regressionanalysis method used to predict the feed grain demand isfeasible

4 Conclusion

The dynamic influence factors in combination with multi-variate regression analysis method are used in this paperto forecast the feed grain demand in China since 2008Prediction results show that Chinarsquos demand for feed grainswill increase year by year in the next 10 years and the averagerelative error between the actual and predicted value byusing the dynamic impact factor regression model is 046superior to the traditional grey system model At presentChinarsquos feed grain demand represents more than 30 of thetotal demand for grain the proportion of which feed graindemand on total demand for grain increased year by yearshows the increasing influence of feed grains on food security

(1) When t = 1sim27 calculate the correlation degree andrelational sequence respectively between 119910

0(119905) and

1199101(119905) and 119909

1(119905) 1199092(119905) and 119909

3(119905)

(2) Use ARIMA model to predict 1199091(119905) 1199092(119905) and 119909

3(119905)

when 119905 gt 27(3) Use multiple regressionmethod to predict urban feed

grain demand 1199100(119905) (119905 = 28) and rural feed grain

demand 1199101(119905) (119905 = 28)

(4) Repeat (3) Urban and rural long-term prediction offeed grain demand can be completed

31 Correlation Calculation The data about the feed graindemand urban and rural population urbanization level andurban and rural residents per capita income between 1981 and2007 are selected fromRural China Statistical Yearbook [13] asthe training data meanwhile the data from 2008 to 2012 areselected as the precision test data as shown in Table 1The feedgrain demand can be got by the sum of per capita meat eggmilk and aquatic product consumption multiplied by theurban and rural population respectively and then accordingto the conversion ratio of feed grain to meat which is 37 to 1the conversion ratio to egg which is 27 to 1 the conversionratio to milk which is 05 to 1 and the conversion ratio toaquatic material which is 04 to 1 to get the final result [14 15]

The correlation degree and relational order are obtainedby using the grey correlation analysis method while thedata about the feed grain demand are calculated in Table 1as reference sequence at the same time urban and ruralpopulation urbanization level and urban and rural residentsper capita income are calculated as comparative sequenceThe results are shown in Table 2

As shown in Table 2 the correlation degree and relationalorder of various factors which affected the urban and ruralfeed grain demand are not completely the same on the basisof that it will be able to improve the prediction accuracy bypredicting towns and rural feed grain demand separately

32 Impact Factors Prediction ARIMA(119901 119889 119902) modeldescribed in Section 23 is adopted to predict the threefactors including urban and rural population urbanizationlevel and urban and rural residents per capita income Theprediction of impact factors for urban feed grain demand in2008 is taken as an example in this paper and the results areshown in Table 3 The forecast data will be used to forecastfeed grain demand in 2008

33 Prediction for Feed Grain Demand by Using MultipleRegression Themultiple regressionmodel of urban and ruraldemand for feed grain demands is set up respectively in2008 by usingEVIEWS statistical software while three factorsmentioned above are taken as independent variables andChinarsquos urban and rural residentsrsquo feed grain demand is takenas the dependent variable The models are shown as follows

represent urbanizationlevel 119909

03is urban residents per capita income and 119909

13is

rural residents per capita incomeThepredicted value of threefactors in 2008 was typed in (10) and (11) respectively thenthe value of urban and rural feed grain demand in 2008 can becalculated the results are 9807134 tons and 66637249 tons

In the above multivariate regression model of urban andrural feed grain demand the model prediction coefficientof different years will change dynamically as the change ofcorrelation of feed grains and affecting factors then it formsa dynamic forecast system

34 Simulation Results The value of feed grain demand in2008ndash2012 can be predicted according to (10) and (11) theresult is shown in Table 4 A grey forecasting model byusing residual error correction on the feed grain demand inliterature [16] is also given in Table 4

From Table 4 and combined with the feed grain demandbetween urban and rural areas since 1981 it can be seen thatthe basic trend of feed grain demand overall present risessteadily [17 18] The feed grain demand increased by 4 timesand the average annual growth rate is 148 from 1981 to2007 Analysis shows that the income level of our countryresidents is low and the consumption structure is unitarymainly grain consumption before the reform and open policyIn recent years the demand for animal products structure ischanging and it mainly displays in the increasing demand formeat eggs milk and aquatic products because peoplersquos livingstandards have been continuously improved

In addition compared with the grey system model inliterature [16] the joint dynamic prediction model in thispaper can track the change of impact factors so it can achievegood long-term forecasts Meanwhile the mean relative errorof proposed model is 046 and has higher superiority inforecasting precision compared with traditional grey fore-casting model of which the mean relative error is 64 Itis fully illustrated that the dynamic impact factor regressionanalysis method used to predict the feed grain demand isfeasible

4 Conclusion

The dynamic influence factors in combination with multi-variate regression analysis method are used in this paperto forecast the feed grain demand in China since 2008Prediction results show that Chinarsquos demand for feed grainswill increase year by year in the next 10 years and the averagerelative error between the actual and predicted value byusing the dynamic impact factor regression model is 046superior to the traditional grey system model At presentChinarsquos feed grain demand represents more than 30 of thetotal demand for grain the proportion of which feed graindemand on total demand for grain increased year by yearshows the increasing influence of feed grains on food security
