Última Valuations of ‘Sustainably Produced’ Labels on Beef, Tomato, and Apple Products AgEcon Tonsor, Glynn T.; Shupp, Robert S.. This study evaluates consumer perceptions of what “sustainably produced” food labels imply and estimates corresponding demand for products carrying these labels. Results suggest that the typical U.S. consumer is not willing to pay a positive premium for beef, tomatoes, or apple products labeled as “sustainably produced.” Demand is particularly sensitive to inferences consumers make regarding what a “sustainably produced” food label implies. Suggestions for future work and implications of standardizing the definition of sustainability are provided.

Ano: 2009 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/59249 Consumer Willingness-to-Pay for Fresh Pork Attributes AgEcon Sanders, Dwight R.; Moon, Wanki; Kuethe, Todd H.. A survey was used to gauge consumer preferences toward four fresh pork attributes: juiciness, tenderness, marbling, and leanness. The survey elicited consumer willingness-to-pay a premium for an improvement in these attributes. Approximately one-half of the respondents were willing to pay some premium for the attributes of juiciness, leanness, and tenderness. The average premium size ranged from $0.20/lb. for marbling to $0.37/lb. for tenderness. Neither the choice of a certifying agency nor the use of a cheap talk script influenced premium levels.

Ano: 2007 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/62294 Demand for and Value of Credence Characteristics: Case Beef AgEcon Latvala, Terhi; Kola, Jukka. The aim of this study is to evaluate both qualitatively and quantitatively the value of new information about and the information systems set for credence characteristics of beef. Economics of information is our theoretical framework. The quantitative approach focuses to measure the ex ante value of credence characteristics, and the method of contingent valuation is applied for this purpose. Results indicate that 59 % of Finnish consumers are willing to pay more to get information about safety and quality of beef products. Consumers are most concerned with diseases caused by food of animal origin. Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are not considered as the mosthazardous risk factor in food products. However, if the beef products contain GMOs used in...

Ano: 2002 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/24841 The economic value of olive plantation in rural areas. A study on a hill region between Italy and Slovenia AgEcon Marangon, Francesco; Troiano, Stefania; Visintin, F.. This study was undertaken with the primary purpose of assessing the welfare gain to local residents resulting from olive trees. A secondary but important aim was to underline the multifunctional role of olive farming. In fact, we know that olive plantation has potentially socially benefits. In particular, it has potentially a lot of positive social effects in rural areas depending on plantation characteristics and farming practices. Therefore, the first section of this paper reviews the main features connected to the multifunctional role of olive farming. Multifunctional role of olive farming is well known in the EU, but it is still needed the institutional intervention in favour of farmers, due to the structural difficulties of olive production sector....

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/44412 Japanese Consumers’ Perceptions on and Willingness to Pay for Credence Attributes Associated with Canola Oil AgEcon Hu, Wuyang; Chen, Kevin Z.; Yoshida, Kentaro. In this study we found that Japanese consumers value the conventional health claim “low in saturated fat” more than the relatively newer claims, such as “high in oleic acid.” In addition, consumers do not prefer oil with genetically modified ingredients or oil that is not domestically produced, but they are willing to pay extra for “organic” or “functional food” features. We also found that the scope and source of information on these credence attributes may also affect consumers’ choices and willingness to pay and that the effects may not be completely consistent with what one would expect.

Ano: 2006 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/43751 Understanding the Connections Between Consumer Motivations and Buying Behavior: The Case of the Local Food System Movement AgEcon Nurse, Gretchen; Onozaka, Yuko; Thilmany, Dawn D.. Local and organic food systems represent some of the many food sector innovations of the past decade that signal that consumers are increasingly diverse and have heterogeneous preferences that reflect their unique values and preferences (Thilmany, Bond and Bond, 2008). Yet, regardless of the significant attention and growth surrounding sustainable foods, there is still a demand for research investigating the intersection of economic and psychological factors that can aid in predicting and explaining consumer behavior. This paper uses an attitude-behavior framework, the Theory of Planned Behavior, to explore the predictive ability of psychological concepts of willingness to pay for different attributes associated with sustainable foods. Consumer attitudes...

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/56494 Estimating Consumer Willingness to Pay for Country-of-Origin Labeling AgEcon Loureiro, Maria L.; Umberger, Wendy J.. Consumer willingness to pay for a mandatory country-of-origin labeling program is assessed. A consumer survey was conducted during 2002 in several grocery stores in Boulder, Denver, and Fort Collins, Colorado. Econometric results indicate that surveyed consumers are willing to pay an average of $184 per household annually for a mandatory country-of-origin labeling program. Respondents were also willing to pay an average of $1.53 and $0.70 per pound more for steak and hamburger labeled as "U.S. Certified Steak" and "U.S. Certified Hamburger," which is equivalent to an increase of 38% and 58%, respectively, over the initial given price.

Ano: 2003 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/31091 Functional Foods in the Marketplace: Willingness to Pay for Apples Enriched with Antioxidants AgEcon Markosyan, Armenak; Wahl, Thomas I.; McCluskey, Jill J.. The attention on so-called “functional foods” has been growing as consumers become more concerned with diet and nutrition. This article aims to measure consumers’ response to apples with “naturally enriched antioxidant coatings.” Surveys were conducted in grocery stores in Seattle, Washington and Spokane, Washington. The results suggest that consumers have a somewhat positive attitude towards functional foods in general and with apples enriched with antioxidants in particular. A contingent valuation technique was used to assess factors affecting consumers’ willingness to pay for the apples with antioxidant coatings. Consumers in the Spokane grocery stores are more likely to pay a premium for the new type of apples than consumers in Seattle. Consumers who...

Ano: 2007 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/9787 Consumer Willingness to Pay for Organic Products in Urban Turkey AgEcon Akgungor, Sedef; Miran, Bulent; Abay, Canan. The objective of the paper is to present the preliminary results of the survey project whose aim is to explore the Turkish consumer's perceptions regarding food safety and the tradeoff they make between chemical residues and cosmetic quality in fresh fruit and vegetable marketing chain. Previous research in Turkey contends that Turkey organic food exports are growing and that there is a small but growing domestic market. A lacking component of the prevailing studies is that none of the studies have focused on the cosmetic quality component of organic products. Another aspect that is missing in the previous studies is that it is not possible to make inferences for the Turkish urban consumers due to designs in sampling and population definition. The aim of...

Ano: 2007 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/7872 Willingness to Pay for Irradiated Food: A Non Hypothetical Market Experiment AgEcon Nayga, Rodolfo M., Jr.; Aiew, Wipon; Woodward, Richard T.. This paper focuses on estimating consumers' willingness to pay for and willingness to accept irradiated food using a non-hypothetical experiment utilizing real food products (i.e., irradiated ground beef), real cash, and actual exchange in a market setting. Single-bounded and one and one-half bounded models are developed using dichotomous choice contingent valuation experiments. Our results indicate that average willingness to pay values range from 75.43 to 78.51 cents per pound while average willingness to accept values range from 69.49 to 81.63 cents per pound of irradiated ground beef.

Ano: 2004 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/24995 Do Supervisors Affect the Valuation of Public Goods? AgEcon Franceschi, Dina; Vásquez, William F.. Systematic supervision procedures have been proposed to improve contingent valuation surveying, particularly in developing countries. Surprisingly, the CV literature does not say much about the potential effects of supervision even though there is evidence of interviewer effects and social desirability issues that can bias results. This paper investigates the effects of interview supervision on the valuation of public services, using split-sample treatments to include a test of scope of a nested good and to assess the effect of interview supervision on reported WTP. Results suggest that supervisors can be used to improve quality with no effect on WTP estimates.

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/6732 Does taste beat food safety? Evidence from the “Pera Rocha” case in Portugal AgEcon Combris, Pierre; Pinto, Alexandra Seabra; Fragata, Antonio; Giraud-Heraud, Eric. Until recently, fresh fruits such as pears were provided to markets as generic products. However, these products are now differentiated by cultivars, origins and appearances, as well as by companies’ production and processing methods. Therefore, we observe a lot of denominations of origin, retailers’ and private labels in order to signal the differentiation to the consumers, who are often willing to pay large price premiums for products with specific attributes. Indeed the value consumers put on fruits depends on the degree of product-information that are available to them and this information derives mainly from tasting and from the label of the products. In this paper, we used an experimental auction to investigate how quality attributes information...

Ano: 2007 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/7879 Consumers’ Willingness to Pay for Food Safety in Nairobi: The Case of Fresh Vegetables AgEcon Lagerkvist, Carl Johan; Hess, Sebastian; Ngigi, Marther W.; Okello, Julius Juma. Large urban areas in developing countries represent currently the most dynamically growing markets for food products. This study investigates the willingness to pay of consumers in Nairobi for safer leafy vegetables. We survey individuals’ perceived food safety across four major market categories, while also considering the explanatory role of trust and behavioral, psychological, and socio-demographic covariates. Results show that willingness to pay is market-specific and multi-faceted, with trust and perceived risks as important drivers, while income plays only a subordinate role. We conclude that policy makers should aim to reduce asymmetric information within the value chain without raising food prices such that safer vegetables would become...

Ano: 2011 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/114409 Economic Uncertainties in Valuing Reductions in Children's Environmental Health Risks AgEcon Hoffmann, Sandra A.; Krupnick, Alan J.; Adamowicz, Wiktor L.. The recognition that environmental hazards can affect children differently and more severely than adults has provoked growing concern in industrialized nations about the impact of environmental pollution on children's health. In this paper, commissioned by the OECD, we are charged with examining "economic uncertainties" associated with valuing the benefits of environmental policies that reduce risk to children's health. We examine two sources of uncertainty in benefits estimation: forecasting uncertainty and modeling uncertainty. We explore how these sources of uncertainty affect the use of standard economic and non-economic approaches to the valuation of health benefits. These include willingness-to-pay measures, cost-of-illness and human-capital...

Ano: 2005 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/10722 Consumer Acceptance and Willingness to Pay for Blueberry Products with Nonconventional Attributes AgEcon Hu, Wuyang; Woods, Timothy A.; Bastin, Sandra. Consumer acceptance and willingness to pay for three nonconventional attributes associated with six processed blueberry products was examined through an in-store conjoint experiment survey. Both credence and experience attributes were considered, including whether the products were produced locally, and whether they were organic or sugar-free. The results indicate heterogeneity in consumer preference and willingness to pay for different attributes across product categories. Local products and organic formulations generally received positive willingness to pay across all products. This information has implications for blueberry growers and retailers who are trying to create and position value-added products for maximum revenue.

Ano: 2004 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/48980 VALUING BOTANIC COLLECTIONS: A COMBINED TRAVEL-COST AND CONTINGENT VALUATION SURVEY IN AUSTRALIA AgEcon Mwebaze, Paul; Bennett, Jeffrey W.. The economic value of biological collections in three major botanic gardens in Australia was estimated using the Travel-Cost (TC) and Contingent Valuation (CV) methods. The study used truncated count data models to control for the non-negative integer and truncation properties of the number of visits to botanic gardens in Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney. We estimate consumer surplus values of approximately $34 per trip to each botanic garden, resulting in the total social welfare estimate of approximately $96.9 million in 2010 Australian dollars. This result is relatively high compared to similar studies conducted in other countries. Willingness to pay (WTP) for entry fees and or higher parking charges for access to botanic gardens were also investigated....

Ano: 2011 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/100688 Use of Spike Models in Measuring Consumers' Willingness to Pay for Non-GM Oil AgEcon Hu, Wuyang. In this paper, Chinese consumers' preferences and their willingness to pay (WTP) for non-genetically modified (GM) vegetable oil were elicited by a payment card approach. In addition to the conventional model, spike models, which were originally developed to evaluate public goods, were adopted in this paper. These spike models recognize the possibility of zero WTP and provide opportunities to analyze two correlated decision stages: whether to pay a premium for non-GM oil and how much the premium is. Results show that consumers behaved consistently in the two decision stages and there is a premium associated with non-GM oil.

Ano: 2006 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/43786 Consumer Preferences for Animal Welfare Attributes: The Case of Gestation Crates AgEcon Tonsor, Glynn T.; Olynk, Nicole J.; Wolf, Christopher A.. Animal welfare concerns are having dramatic impacts on food and livestock markets. Here we examine consumer preferences for pork products with a focus on use of gestation crates. We examine underlying consumer valuations of pork attributes while considering preference heterogeneity as well as voluntary and legislative alternatives in producing gestation crate-free pork. Our results suggest that prohibiting swine producers from using gestation crates fails to improve consumer welfare in the presence of a labeling scheme documenting voluntary disadoption of gestation crates. Consumers are found to implicitly associate animal welfare attributes with smaller farms. Preference heterogeneity drives notably diverse consumer welfare impacts when pork produced with...
