Última Options for Supply Management in Canada with Trade Liberalization AgEcon Barichello, Richard R.; Cranfield, John A.L.; Meilke, Karl D.. Following the Uruguay Round of trade negotiations Canada replaced its import quotas on sensitive products with tariff rate quotas. The over-quota tariffs on those products operating under domestic supply management schemes (dairy and poultry products) ranged from a low of 155 percent on turkey to a high of 299 percent on butter. These tariffs have effectively blocked over quota imports and are likely to continue to prevent imports, under most market conditions, given the likely range of tariff cuts proposed for sensitive products following a successful completion of the Doha Round. However, it’s argued that tariff cuts in the post-Doha Round will severely limit Canada’s ability to restrict imports and it is important to use the next 15 years to better...

Ano: 2007 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/6124 USING LINKED HOUSEHOLD-LEVEL DATASETS TO EXPLAIN CONSUMER RESPONSE TO BSE IN CANADA AgEcon Wang, Xin; Maynard, Leigh J.; Butler, J.S.. Household-level Canadian meat purchases from 2002-2008 and the Food Opinion Survey conducted in 2008 were used to explore consumer responses to Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) at the national level in Canada. Three measures of beef purchased were used to understand consumers‟ reaction under food risk. A random effects Logit model was applied to test whether any beef was purchased during a given month. Consumption in terms of unit purchases was measured with a random effects Negative Binomial model and consumption in terms of beef expenditure was measured with a standard random effects model. In this study, household heterogeneity in actual meat purchases was partially explained using data from a self-reported food opinions survey. Of special...

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/116404 AGEING AND CONSUMPTION – THE IMPACT OF DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGE ON FOOD EXPENDITURE PATTERNS AgEcon Anders, Sven M.. Populations in most developed countries are ageing while fertility is declining. Policy makers and researchers expect this demographic shift to induce major shifts in most Western societies, economies and public policies. Moreover, changing requirements, demands and public health pressures (e.g. diabetes) of ageing populations are expected are likely to alter food expenditure patterns for various goods categories, including food products. The objective of this paper is to investigate to what extent household's food expenditure patterns shift around retirement age and what role changes in time use spend on home production play in this context. More specifically this paper reviews literature relevant to economic literature that has evolved around Modigliani...

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/116442 ADDITIONALITY OF CREDIT GUARANTEES FOR U.S. WHEAT EXPORTS AgEcon Diersen, Matthew A.; Wilson, William W.; Dahl, Bruce L.; Satyanarayana, Vidyashankara. The value of credit guarantee programs has recently been called into question. Credit guarantees are important marketing tools in the world wheat market, both to develop new markets and to compete in existing markets. This study examines the additionality of export credit guarantees. Empirical demand models were developed and estimated using pooled data among importing countries. Models were estimated for each of the principal exporting countries providing export credit guarantees: the United States, Canada and France. Additionality of credit guarantees were also contrasted to the Export Enhancement Program. Positive additionality was found for CCC guarantees, indicating that the GSM programs have resulted in additional exports that would not have...

Ano: 1997 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/23425 THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE WTO NEGOTIATIONS ON THE CANADIAN CHICKEN MARKET: TWO REPRESENTATIONS OF CHICKEN AND STOCHASTIC WORLD PRICES AgEcon Rafajlovic, Juanita; Cardwell, Ryan T.. Current Doha Development Agenda (DDA) World Trade Organisation negotiations include proposals that would affect the trade barriers that protect Canada’s chicken producers from foreign competition. This research analyses the effects of the most recent proposals to emerge from the DDA negotiation on Canada’s chicken industry. We develop a partial-equilibrium model that generates welfare effects for the Canadian chicken industry supply chain. We also introduce stochastic prices to evaluate the effects of world price instability on the Canadian chicken industry. The model is also adapted to represent chicken as two distinct products; white meat and dark meat. Simulation results suggest that the welfare effects of the DDA proposals on the Canadian chicken...

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/95814 The impact of management skills on farm incomes in Canada AgEcon Painter, Marvin J.. This study assesses the reported farm income crisis in Canada and uses farm financial data to illustrate the importance and impact that management skills and practices have on farm income and net worth. For grain and oilseed farms, large farms produce higher revenues per hectare and achieve economies of scale on operating expenses, interest and depreciation, making them significantly more profitable than smaller or average sized farms. The higher profits associated with large farms are partly returns to good farm management. While farmland investment returns are competitive with stock and bond markets, grain and oilseed farm labour and management returns are not competitive with provincial average wages and salaries. On average, Canadian grain and oilseed... Tipo: Article Palavras-chave: Canada; Skills; Farm incomes; Farm size; Farm Management.

Ano: 1996 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/18617 REFORM OF THE CANADIAN WHEAT BOARD: A “MADE IN CANADA” APPROACH TO MARKETING GRAIN AgEcon Pedde, Richard; Mirus, Rolf. The debate continues: whether or not single desk selling of Western Canadian grain provides the best return to producers. It is methodologically difficult to show that better returns may have been foregone in the past, yet the experience in Illinois suggests that, absent the CWB, farmers could also achieve worse results. While this battle – a battle that is in part ideological in nature – has been taking place, the world has moved forward and new services markets have evolved. There may indeed be $20 bills on the sidewalk that can be picked up by moving with the world – without, for the time being, abandoning the single desk. In this brief discussion paper we argue that the Canadian Wheat Board (CWB) can improve its performance through increased recourse...

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/60433 Cropland Values in Canada AgEcon Sussman, Deborah. This bulletin provides an overview of trends in cropland values in Canada. Cropland values are a major component of farm wealth which, together with income can be used as a measure of the economic well-being of farm households. Cropland values are provided for a 3-year period, 2005-2007, for each province and farm type (beef, hog, poultry and egg, dairy, grain and oilseed, potato, greenhouse, and fruit and vegetable farms).

Ano: 2009 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/53931 The Role of the Imports for Re-Exports Program in Determining Canadian Demand for Imported Cheese: Implications for U.S. Exports AgEcon Muhammad, Andrew. Given the importance of the Imports for Re-exports Program in (IREP) in Canada, this study assessed the impact of per-unit export returns on Canadian demand for imported cheese. If Canadian importers increase utilization of IREP, U.S. exports to Canada will remain unchanged while imports from the EU will increase.

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/8214 Equity financing and investment opportunities in Canadian primary agriculture AgEcon Painter, Marvin J.. This study shows that for the period 1990–2007, international portfolio investment performance was significantly improved with the addition of Canadian farmland. Farmland in Canada is considered relatively low risk, enters the efficient portfolios at low risk levels and adds the most financial improvement to low and medium risk portfolios. Compared with T-bills and long bonds, farmland has higher risk and yield, but lower risk than stocks. Compared with stocks, farmland has income yields and risk that are similar to or better than dividend yields and risk on stocks while farmland has capital gain yields and risk that are usually lower, on average, than stocks. The low and negative correlation of farmland yields with stocks and bonds make it a good...

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/120867 Trade-Related Policy and Canadian-U.S. Fed Cattle Transactions Basis AgEcon Schulz, Lee L.; Schroeder, Ted C.; Ward, Clement E.. Price differences among fed cattle prices in Canada and the United States (referred to here as fed cattle basis) are important for Canadian cattle feeders, but changing government regulations in Canada and the United States have made basis more variable. This article uses transaction data from Canadian feedlots to quantify fed cattle price differentials in light of new policy initiatives. Using transaction prices, we find that differing slaughter regulations, labeling laws, and policies affecting access to U.S. markets for Canadian cattle affect fed cattle basis.

Ano: 2011 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/117174 Comparing Predictors of Diet Quality in Canada Over Time Under Consideration of Altering Food Guides AgEcon Drescher, Larissa S.; Goddard, Ellen W.. Latest data on the diet of Canadians from the Canadian Community Health Survey reveals that the diet quality of Canadians needs improvement. Within this paper predictors of diet quality in Canada are identified based on two cross-sectional data sets from the Canadian Food Expenditure Survey. To measure diet quality, the Canadian Healthy Food Diversity (CanHFD)-Index is developed which is based on Food Guide recommendations. Moreover, this paper considers that the Food Guide between survey years has changed when analyzing diet quality. To track changes in demand for diet quality we use “Canada’s Food Guide 1982” to calculate CanHFD-Index for 1984 and 1996. Changes in demand for diet quality according to “Canada’s Food Guide to Healthy Eating 1992” are...

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/52091 PROCESSED FOOD TRADE AND FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT UNDER NAFTA AgEcon Koo, Won W.; Mattson, Jeremy W.. Trade in processed food products is rapidly growing. Trade with Canada and Mexico has especially been growing since free trade agreements have been implemented. The U.S. presence in the processed food industry in other countries through foreign direct investment (FDI) is also large and has been expanding. The relationship between trade and FDI is uncertain and subject to much debate. Japan and Canada are the largest importers of processed foods from the United States, followed by Mexico and Korea. Canada is the leading exporter of food products to the United States, followed by France, Mexico, and Italy. Canada and Mexico have, in recent years, become increasingly important trading partners in processed foods. Results from this study do not...

Ano: 2009 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/49327 Food Safety Incidents, Collateral Damage and Trade Policy Responses: China-Canada Agri-Food Trade AgEcon Liu, Huanan; Hobbs, Jill E.; Kerr, William A.. As markets become globalized, food safety policy and international trade policy are increasingly intertwined. Globalization also means that food safety incidents are widely reported internationally. One result is that food safety incidents can negatively impact products where no food safety issue exists as consumers lose trust in both foreign and domestic food safety institutions. While the policy framework for dealing with directly effected imported foods is well understood, how to deal with the market failure associated with indirectly affected products within the existing trade policy rules has not been explored. Using the example of China’s 2007 problems with a spate of products safety incidents, a theoretical framework is developed and the response of...

This paper explores socio-demographic, economic and behaviour factors influencing body mass index (BMI) amongst 20 to 64 year old adults in Canada. BMI scores in Canada have increased, with gains stemming from disproportionate increases in female BMI. Econometric results indicate higher BMI scores for males, those born in Canada, those in food insecure homes and whites. Age-gender interactions suggest different patterns of BMI adjustment over the life of males and females; a pronounced inverse quadratic relationship between with age and male BMI is noted, while female BMI increases with age. Education, used as a gauge of inequality, is inversely related to BMI, while income has a muted effect. BMI is inversely related to level of physical activity, an...

Ano: 2007 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/6837 Using Linked Household-level Datasets to Explain Consumer Response to BSE in Canada AgEcon Wang, Xin; Maynard, Leigh J.; Butler, J.S.. Household-level Canadian meat purchases from 2002-2008, household-level egg purchases from 2002-2005 and Food Opinion Survey in 2008 were used to understand how consumers who have different concerns about nutrition react to BSE events and how beef consumption after BSE discoveries were shaped by consumers concerns of food safety and their trust of government and the industry decision makers. Three measures of beef purchased were used to explore consumers’ reaction. A random effects logit model was applied to test whether any beef purchased during a given month. Consumption in terms of unit purchases was measured with a random effects Negative Binomial model and consumption in terms of beef expenditure was measured with a standard random effects model....
