Rural Housing Rental Rates in China
Through recognition and mastery of the regional differences and influencing factors of China’s rural housing rental rates, we can better understand changes in the functional attributes of homesteads and deepen the reform of “separating rural land ownership rights, contract rights, and management rights” of homesteads. Accordingly, it can use village residence data from the China Labor-force Dynamics Survey to measure the degree of regional differences in rural housing rental rates at the province level and empirically analyze the influencing factors with villages (residences) as measuring unit. The study yields four main findings. First, rural housing rental behavior exists to varying degrees in the vast majority of provinces nationwide. Second, according to the spatial distribution pattern, rural housing rental rates are generally high in the eastern coastal region and low in the central, western, and northeastern regions, mainly reflecting unique characteristics of the eastern region. Third, although the level of economic development is important, it is not the only factor explaining regional differences in rural housing rental rates. Fourth, rural housing rental rates are mainly influenced by a combination of three types of factors: physiographic, socioeconomic, and village governance factors. Among them, factors such as proximity to suburban areas, the proportion of non-local permanent residents, annual per capita income, and village infrastructure conditions have significant positive effects, whereas factors such as distance from administrative centers, reliance on funding from the higher-level authority of the village committee, and the degree of harmony between villages and cadres have significant negative effects.

Role of Instagram Travel Influencers in sustainable tourism
Instagram is a critical tool for the selection of tourism destinations. Instagram travel influencers seem to play a significant role in this process, often using geo-location data to make their posts even more impactful. However, there is no evidence of them performing such a role in sustainable destinations, although these destinations are increasing and to a large extent are the future in tourism.

Role of Innovation in Sustainable Development
Innovation and innovative activity are powerful tools for increasing the competitiveness of enterprises, regions, and countries. The level of innovative activity is an excellent indicator of a country’s efforts towards sustainable development and its ability to be up to date. Innovations are fundamental tools for high-tech product manufacturing and technological improvement in industries. This theme is deeply developed by world organisations and agencies and presents increasing evidence in academic and scientific spheres.

Robotic Process Automation in Beef Supply Chains
The beef supply chain is large and expanded and has a complex supply chain system which makes it challenging. Technological adoptions such as Robotic Process Automation allow beef supply chains to enhance their operational efficiency and speed up the production line to meet consumer demands. The beef industry has relied heavily on the human workforce in the past; however, RPA adoption allows automating tasks that are repetitive and strenuous in nature to enhance beef quality, safety and security. Successful RPA adoption allows managers, decision-makers and stakeholders to enjoy RPA's full potential and promising benefits which are social, strategic and economical. This enables beef supply chains to produce safer and high-quality beef with less processing time, energy and costs.

Robotic Process Automation Adoption in Beef Supply Chains
Robotic process automation (RPA) is seen as an emerging technology that can accelerate business processes through the automation of repetitive, strenuous, and rule-based tasks in supply chain systems. RPA is often referred to as software robotics or “bots”, and follows instructions defined by the end-users to automate repetitive processes or activities in business organisations.

Road Traffic Congestion
Traffic congestion is a perpetual problem for the sustainability of transportation development. Traffic congestion causes delays, inconvenience, and economic losses to drivers, as well as air pollution. Identification and quantification of traffic congestion are crucial for decision-makers to initiate mitigation strategies to improve the overall transportation system’s sustainability. This study summarizes the current road traffic congestion measures and provides a constructive insight into the development of a sustainable and resilient traffic management system.
