CHINA'S FOOD AND AGRICULTURE: ISSUES FOR THE 21ST CENTURY
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
China's impact on world agricultural markets in coming decades will depend on many factors. Growing income and transition to modern urban lifestyles will increase demand for all foods, but demand will shift toward meat and high-value products. WTO accession may increase openness of China's agricultural trade and allow more imports. An understanding of geographic variations of consumption, production, trade, and policy is critical to understanding the vast China market. Development of transportation infrastructure and market channels will make it easier for food products to reach consumers. China's approach to biotechnology and its reform of institutions for allocating land, labor, and water inputs have important implications for agricultural productive...

The Impact of Gasoline Prices on Internet Purchases
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Martens,   Andrea.
The proposition of a carbon tax has reinvigorated the discussion about the price elasticity of gasoline demand. This paper analyzes how consumers react to higher gas prices in a new setting, examining whether they choose Internet purchasing over in-store purchasing when gas prices increase. Prior studies of Internet purchases have focused mainly on local sales tax rates, traditional retail options, and prices. This is the first study to incorporate transportation costs directly, studying 155,000 households across the U.S. from 2008 through 2009. The impact of gas prices on individuals' transportation budget depends on the fuel efficiency of their vehicles, on the distance that they need to drive, and on the availability of alternate public transportation...

Autores: Gameiro,   Augusto Hauber; Gameiro,   Mariana Bombo Perozzi.
Despite the well-known idea that rice is a commodity and thus it is unlikely to be differentiated, there is a large number of rice products available in the retail market, with different classification, standards, packages, brands etc. It can be observed significant variation in their prices, considering the brands, manufacturers, stores and also when the same product is considered in a short interval of time. Before these findings, we asked what the effects of rice purchasing strategies are over consumers’ expenditures. This paper proposes a mathematical model to simulate the decision process of rice purchasing by consumers with different preferences, in front of products available in supermarkets in a city of Sao Paulo state and another in Rio Grande do...

Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Duran,   Anna Clara.
Introduction: The food environment has been associated with food choices and obesity however tools to measure the food environment in middle-income countries are yet unavailable. Objectives: To propose two indexes to evaluate the food environment: Healthy Meal-Restaurant Index (HM-RI) and Healthy Retail Food Store Index (HRSI). Methods: All restaurants and retail food stores located in 52 census tracts across 13 districts of São Paulo city were audited. ANOVA analyses were performed according to SES and store types. Results: In total, 472 restaurants and 313 retail food stores were found. Mean HM-RI score was 2.66 (Standard deviation - SD=0.96), 50.2% of stores scored up to 2. Higher mean scores were found in high SES areas (p&lt;0.001) and among full...

ACEITAÇÃO E SEGMENTAÇÃO DO MERCADO DE PRODUTOS DERIVADOS DA CARNE DE PERU
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Pulici,   Rodrigo; Alves,   Flavio Rocha; Gameiro,   Augusto Hauber.
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...

Do Sales Matter? Evidence from UK Food Retailing
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Lloyd,   Tim A.; Morgan,   C. Wyn; McCorriston,   Steve; Zgovu,   Evious.
This paper assesses the role of sales as a feature of price dynamics using scanner data. The study analyses a unique, high frequency panel of supermarket prices consisting of over 230,000 weekly price observations on around 500 products in 15 categories of food stocked by the UK’s seven largest retail chains. In all, 1,700 weekly time series are available at the barcode-specific level including branded and own-label products. The data allows the frequency, magnitude and duration of sales to be analysed in greater detail than has hitherto been possible with UK data. The main results are: (i) sales are a key feature of aggregate price variation with around 40 per cent of price variation being accounted for by sales once price differences for each UPC level...

Scale, Scope, and Specialization Effects on Retailers’ Procurement Strategies: Evidence from the Fresh Produce Markets of São Paulo
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Mainville,   Denise Y.; Reardon,   Thomas; Farina,   Elizabeth Maria Mercier Querido.
Worldwide, the emergence of large supermarket chains in food retail markets is often associated with the marginalization of smaller retailers. A notable exception exists in Brazil, however, where small retailers have held their place in the market and recently even gained ground. The literature investigating how retail concentration has affected agrifood chains has focused activities of the largest retail chains, implicitly holding the scale, scope and specialization of retailers’ input needs constant, and overlooking the influence of these factors on retailers’ procurement strategies. This paper tests hypotheses regarding these variables’ effects on retailers’ fresh produce procurement strategies. Data is drawn from a survey of retailers in metropolitan...

ESTIMATING THE IMPORTANCE OF SHELF SPACE CONFIGURATION ON RETAILER'S PROFIT
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Roucan-Kane,   Maud; Martens,   Bobby J.; Preckel,   Paul V.
Retail shelf space allocation remains a central issue in grocery retailing. A literature review produced many studies on retail shelf space allocation, but none which evaluated shelf space allocation using three major factors at once: space, vertical height, and price. In this study, shelf space allocation was modeled from the perspective of a retailer maximizing profit using space, vertical height, and price. Using benchmarking, the results show how shelf configuration affects consumer demand and retailer profit. Parameters for the model were based on experience-based intuition. Although the initial results are not valuable at this point, the method and results create a rationale and motivation to gather primary data. Once primary data is collected, this...

Critical Access Hospitals and Retail Activity: an Empirical Analysis
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Brooks,   Lara; Whitacre,   Brian E.
This paper takes an empirical approach to determining the effect that a critical access hospital (CAH) has on local retail activity.  Previous research on the relationship between hospitals and economic development has primarily focused on single-case, multiplier oriented analysis.  The positive empirical results provide additional evidence on the far-reaching economic development impacts of CAHs.  The results also emphasize the importance of continued support for these rural institutions, including federal and state subsidies.

Investigating Thai Shopping Behaviour: Wet-Markets, Supermarkets and Food Quality
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Gorton,   Matthew; Sauer,   Johannes; Supatpongkul,   Pajaree.
An analysis of primary survey data on Thai shopping behavior seeks to understand the relative satisfaction of consumers with wet markets and supermarkets and identify the factors that affect frequency of visit to, and purchase behavior within, these retail outlets. This is used as a basis for engaging in wider debates on the ‘supermarket revolution’ in Asia. On all salient attributes affecting retail outlet choice, wet markets are perceived, in general, to be inferior to supermarkets. However for fresh produce sales, wet markets retain an advantage. Both socio-economic characteristics and retail outlet attributes are considered as determinants of food shopping behavior. Bootstrapped bivariate ordered probit models identify that those using wet markets more...

COST PASS THROUGH IN THE CASE OF SEQUENTIAL OLIGOPOLY: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF THE FLUID MILK MARKET
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Dhar,   Tirtha Pratim; Cotterill,   Ronald W.
We estimate the cost pass through rates (CPTR) in the Boston fluid milk market  while taking into account strategic conduct (Vertical Nash, Vertical Stackleberg) between retailers and processors. By using structural demand and supply specification we estimate and test for the pass through rates at different stages of fluid milk marketing channels.  Processors have higher pass through rates than retailers.

How Retail Beef and Bread Prices Respond to Changes in Ingredient and Input and Costs
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Roeger,   Edward; Leibtag,   Ephraim S.
The extent to which cost changes pass through a vertically organized production process depends on the value added by each producer in the chain as well as a number of other organizational and marketing factors at each stage of production. Using 36 years of monthly Bureau of Labor Statistics price indices data (1972-2008), we model pass-through behavior for beef and bread, two retail food items with different levels of processing. Both the farm-to-wholesale and wholesale-to-retail price responses are modeled to allow for the presence of structural breaks in the underlying long-term relationships between price series. Broad differences in price behavior are found not only between food categories (retail beef prices respond more to farm-price changes than do...

Implicit Value of Retail Beef Product Attributes
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Ward,   Clement E.; Lusk,   Jayson L.; Dutton,   Jennifer M.
To identify the value consumers place on observable characteristics of fresh beef products, primary data were collected on over 1,350 packages of beef from 66 randomly selected grocery stores located in three metropolitan areas--Oklahoma City and Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Denver, Colorado.  Estimated linear and log-linear hedonic models reveal ground beef prices were significantly influenced by store location (i.e., metropolitan area) and store type, fat content, package size and type, expiration date, brand category, and special labels.  Factors influencing steak prices included store location, product type, quality grade, package size and type, brand category, and special labels.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF SMALL FOOD MANUFACTURING AND RETAILING BUSINESSES
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Gustafson,   Cole R.
The 1998 Survey of Small Business Finances provides robust information on the financing of small businesses including an overview of their firm's organization, financial characteristics, and credit use.  Information from the survey is used in this study to compare the financial characteristics of food manufacturing and retailing small businesses.  On average, both food manufacturing and food retailing small businesses had positive financial characteristics.  Although they were only marginally profitable and liquid, they were highly solvent.  Accounts receivable and inventory comprise nearly half of food manufacturers' total assets and a third of food retailers' assets.  By most financial measures, food retailers were statistically smaller than food...
