This study provides empirical evidence about European consumer awareness, perceptions and behavior towards farmed and wild fish. The evidence is based on three empirical studies: a consumer survey in Belgium in March 2003, focus group discussions with consumers in Belgium and Spain in May 2004, and a pan-European consumer survey with a sample of 4,786 fish consumers in Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Span and Poland in November-December 2004. Consumer awareness about the farmed or wild origin of fish is rather poor, particular among lighter fish user groups. Perceptions are quite diverse across Europe. Furthermore, perceptions often contrast with current scientific evidence, in particular with respect to behalf and nutritional value where consumers... |

Product labeling has gained considerable attention recently, as a means to both provide product-specific information and reduce quality uncertainty faced by consumers, as well as from a regulatory point of view. This article focuses on whether and to what extent origin, quality and traceability labeling is an appropriate way to differentiate food products. The focus is on fresh meat and fresh fish, two mainly generic food product categories with a high degree of credence character. Insights into the potential for market differentiation through origin, quality and traceability labeling are provided and discussed using primary data collected during the period 2000-2005 by means of four consumer surveys. In general, direct indications of quality, including... |

In this paper we investigate how label information detailing the performance of the Fair Trade labeling program with respect to coffee affect consumers’ willingness to pay in the United States and in Germany. We provide respondents (University students in the U.S and Germany) information regarding hypothetical benefits of the Fair Trade Coffee program on its intended beneficiaries on the production side (the revenue gains to participating marginal farmers (scope of the program)), and using stated preference conjoint methods test how this performance criterion relates to the willingness to pay for Fair Trade Coffee. Our empirical results identify a “threshold'' property of performance-based labels. In effect, the willingness-to-pay for performance-based... |

The studies on agribusiness are based in a systemic dimension, seeking to understanding the relationship among agents and the search for greater efficiency among or intra-chains. For such purpose, understanding the several flows concealed in the agri-food networks (and in their chains) has become necessary: flows of materials and products, capital flows, flows of information. The flow of the information, as object of this study, is generated in primary sources (consumers), positioned at the end of the production chain, and it “flows” through channels, reaching all the points that determine strategic interests in the chain. In its course, it undergoes changes (noises) starting at the moment it is decoded by secondary sources. Using such elements, this... |

Based on the introduction of the connotation of “lemon market” and the phenomenon of “lemon” in the market of agricultural products, the consumers’ behaviors in the “lemon market” of agricultural products are analyzed. Firstly, consumers feel unfair in their minds in the process of negotiation; secondly, the purchase decision rule tends to be simplified in the “lemon market” of agricultural products; thirdly, the consumers tend to follow the masses in the “lemon market” of agricultural products. The economics significance of the impact of “lemon dilemma” of agricultural products on consumers is analyzed. The causes of the impact are analyzed from two aspects the uncertainty of collecting the information of agricultural information and the uncertainty of... |

For quite a while, stated preferences have been a major tool to measure consumer preferences for new products and services. Revealed preference methods, in particular experimental economics, have gained popularity recently because they have been shown to be more incentive compatible, and therefore more accurate. However, this advantage comes at the expense of higher survey costs. In the developing countries with limited funding for research, it is important to determine whether the extra cost can be justified by the extra gain in accuracy. A survey of 100 farmers was carried out in Western Kenya to determine consumer preference for yellow maize using the contingent valuation, choice experiments and experimental auction methods. Experimental auctions... |

This paper provides a consumer-driven definition of traditional food products (TFP) and investigates the image European consumers have about this food product category. Data were collected from representative consumer samples in six European countries, including Belgium, France, Italy, Norway, Poland and Spain, with a total sample size of 4,828 participants. European consumers define traditional foods as well-know products, products that one can eat very frequently, and products that were already eaten by grandparents. Although positive, association of TFP with naturalness and low processing is less pronounced. Sensory, health- and environment-related attribute perceptions contribute positively to the image of TFP, whereas perceived convenience, price, and... |

Reduction in coffee consumption has required from coffee organizations the development of marketing techniques so as to creating value to their product as well as reaching consumer’s satisfaction. This work aimed at identifying questions on coffee consumers’ desires, perceptions, preferences and habits in Lavras, MG. The conclusive/descriptive research model was used, by means of which primary data were gathered through personal/individual surveys using structured questionnaires. It was verified that consumers are not loyal to coffee brands and that the determining factors in theirs choices are taste, price and yelding. Packaging must feature information on production site, manufacture and expiration dates, type, product classification, as well as... |

Nos últimos anos, a avicultura brasileira tem apresentado grande crescimento na produção e a criação de perus acompanha - de certa forma - este desempenho. Como o frango de corte, grande parte da produção de carne de peru é exportada. Todavia, o frango de corte tem o consumo no mercado interno bastante consolidado, o que já não ocorre com o consumo de derivados de peru, que se apresenta bastante baixo, apesar do crescimento nos últimos cinco anos. A presente pesquisa analisou a estratégia de segmentação do mercado dos produtos à base de carne de peru, o comportamento de compra baseado nos preços desses produtos no varejo vis-à-vis os dos derivados de frango e as possíveis causas do baixo consumo per capita brasileiro. A pesquisa foi realizada em três... |

Although interest in ‘sustainable food’ has grown substantially in recent years, an official definition for sustainability has yet to be agreed upon. ‘Sustain: the alliance for better food and farming’ provide guidance to consumers wishing to make more sustainable food purchases, in the form of seven guiding principles. Using these principles, this study seeks to assess UK consumer’s priorities towards sustainable food. A detailed structured questionnaire explored shopping habits, attitudes to sustainable food components (organic, fair-trade, local food and animal welfare), stated purchasing behaviour and demographic information. Questionnaires were sent to 2,500 randomly selected Nottinghamshire (UK) residents. A response rate of 35.6% was achieved. The... |

The sharp fluctuations in agricultural commodity and food prices at a time of great uncertainty about the economic outlook illustrate the need to improve the functioning of the European food supply chain with a view to enhancing its efficiency and competitiveness. Better regulation and ensuring a vigorous and coherent enforcement of competition and consumer protection rules will contribute to limiting price increases for the benefit of European consumers, in particular lower income households. Moreover, it will also help overcome the present fragmentation of the food supply chain and remove artificial entry barriers for producers, which will help European consumers benefit from the widest possible choice of quality food products. Additionally, this could... |
