Assessing Food Safety Concepts on the Dairy Farm: The Case of Chemical Hazards AgEcon
Valeeva, Natasha I.; Meuwissen, Miranda P.M.; Oude Lansink, Alfons G.J.M.; Bergevoet, Ron H.M.; Huirne, Ruud B.M..
Adaptive conjoint analysis was used to elicit farmers' and experts' preferences for attributes of improving food safety with respect to chemical hazards on the dairy farm. Groups of respondents were determined by cluster analysis based on similar farmers' and experts' perceptions of food safety improvement. Results show differences in priority of the more important attributes. However, respondents in all groups valued "identification of treated cows" as one of the most important attributes. The results provide the processing industry and extension service with a better understanding of aspects that may form farmers' perceptions of improving food safety, and thus help to define the message for targeting different farmer groups.

A GABONAPIACI KERESLET SZEREPLŐINEK ÁTALAKULÁSA AgEcon
Kemenyne Horvath, Zsuzsanna.
A tanulmány bemutatja a hazai gabona keresletében bekövetkezett vertikális és horizontális átrendeződést és annak hatásait. A kérdőíves megkeresés és a mélyinterjúkból született válaszokat felhasználva, klaszteranalízis segítségével lehetővé vált a felvásárlói oldalon álló szereplők tipizálása, továbbá az áralku döntéseik modellezése. Megállapítható, hogy a gabonapiacon elsősorban a nagy kereskedelmi cégek és holdingok az árvezetők, ami méretükkel, tároló kapacitá-saikkal, logisztikai adottságaikkal és stratégiájukkal magyarázható. A feldolgo-zók (malom, takarmánykeverő, vetőmagos cégek), az integrátorok, kiskereskedők és egyéb cégek árelfogadók a gabonapiacon. Az intervenciós árszint a keresleti oldalon álló szereplők áralkuit, gabonapiaci stratégiáját...

Efecto de la intensificacion sobre la eficiencia de las explotaciones lecheras AgEcon
Alvarez, Antonio; del Corral, Julio; Perez, Jose Antonio; Solis, Daniel.
This study analyzes the differences on production cost associated with the intensification of production for a sample of dairy farms in Asturias. In doing so, we account for two methodological issues which are not usually considered in the empirical literature. On the one hand, we allow for different technologies within the sample. On the other hand, we estimate ex ante cost functions, which use "planned output" instead of the traditional ex post approach which uses the "observed output". Our results show a positive relation between intensification and efficiency. RESUMEN Este trabajo analiza las diferencias en costes de producción asociados con la intensificación productiva de explotaciones lecheras en Asturias. Para lograr este objetivo se han...

The application of multivariate statistical methods for understanding food consumer behaviour AgEcon
Lakner, Zoltan; Hajdu, Istvanne; Banati, Diana; Szabo, Erzsebet; Kasza, Gyula.
Understanding consumer behaviour is a necessary precondition for a targeted communication strategy. The behaviour is a complex phenomenon and research needs to undertake a rigorously apply sophisticated methods. This article entails the combined utilisation of categorical principal component analysis and cluster analysis to determine the major, relatively homogenous consumer groups and this is coupled with confirmatory factor analysis and structural model building to understand consumer behaviour, based on Fishbein and Ajzent’s theoretic model.

Internal preference mapping of cured ham with consumer's segmentation in Spain AgEcon
Resano, H.; Sanjuan, Ana Isabel.
The overall acceptability of 202 consumers has been analysed by ANOVA, multiple means comparison, cluster analysis and internal preference mapping (MDPREF). Three clusters are found with different preference criteria. These clusters can also be characterized according to actual purchase behaviour, declared consumption habits and sociodemographic characteristics. This study demonstrates the importance for the agro-food industry of examining consumers’ individual preferences as well as average ones, to obtain relevant information including not only the consumers’ preference trends, but also the most suitable segment to target a new product. In this way, the MDPREF shows that although consumers’ preferences tend to Iberian hams over white-breed hams, there is...

SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS AND THE STRUCTURAL CHANGE OF DIETARY INTAKE IN HUNGARY: A PANNEL STUDY AgEcon
Bakucs, Lajos Zoltan; Ferto, Imre; Marreiros, Cristina.
Typically, big changes in the economic system lead to alterations on the disposable income of families and thus on their spending for different type of products, including food. These may imply, in the long run, a structural modification of the quality of diet of the population. After the fall of the socialist system, in the past two decades Central and Eastern European countries, including Hungary, went through a profound, and sometimes difficult transition of their political and economic systems, shifting from a centralized planned economy to an open market economy, and more importantly, the European Union integration. Economic change in lower-income and transitional economies of the world appears to coincide with increasing rapid social change. With...

A Mixed Geographically Weighted Approach to Decoupling and Rural Development in the EU-15 AgEcon
Pecci, Francesco; Sassi, Maria.
The CAP reform and the recent EC communication aimed at preparing its Health Check emphasise the need for interventions locally based where agricultural policy integrates with a broader policy for rural areas growth. In this context, the paper investigates the possible different sets policy indicators affecting agricultural productivity at the regional level considering spatial heterogeneity by means of a Mixed Geographically Weighted Regression approach. The analysis is based on a set of policy sensitive indicators selected according to the key component of the CAP reform and referred to a sample of 164 EU-15 regions at NUTS2 level. The methodology adopted, new for the empirical literature on the topic, allows for a more accurate understanding of spatial...

Examination of the value system and food preferences in the institutional catering market in light of primary research carried out in Békés county AgEcon
Fodor, Monika.
In my present paper I try to characterise the differences present at the level of food preferences by means of examining the value system as, in my opinion, differences in the value system are reflected in concrete product choices and thus also in food selection. By using factor and cluster analysis I have proven that consumer groups formed alongside the value system also differ regarding food consumption viewpoints. Furthermore, in my paper I also aim to characterise food preference as a determining factor of modes of daily eating. Based on the results, I have concluded that the impact of time-related preferences on food selection can be felt in consumers’ opinions, but cannot be regarded as dominant. In the system of food selection viewpoints, internal...

Ethanol Plant Location Determinants and County Comparative Advantage AgEcon
Lambert, Dayton M.; Wilcox, Michael D.; English, Alicia; Stewart, Lance A..
The location of ethanol plants is determined by infrastructure, product and input markets, fiscal attributes of local communities, and state and federal incentives. This empirical analysis uses probit regression along with spatial clustering methods to analyze investment activity of ethanol plants at the county level for the lower U.S. 48 states from 2000 to 2007. The availability of feedstock dominates the site selection decision. Other factors, such as access to navigable rivers or railroads, product markets, producer credit and excise tax exemptions, and methyl tertiary-butyl ether bans provided some counties with a comparative advantage in attracting ethanol plants.

Coupon, Bogof, Linksave oder Rabatt? Akzeptanz neuer Verkaufsförderungsaktionen des Lebensmitteleinzelhandels AgEcon
Moeser, Anke.
Im deutschen Lebensmitteleinzelhandel finden sich neben dem bekannten Sonderangebot vermehrt neue Aktionsformen wie „BOGOF“, „Rabatt“, „Linksave“ oder „Coupons“. Der vorliegende Beitrag diskutiert die Akzeptanz dieser unterschiedlichen Verkaufsförderungs-aktionen. Dabei ist davon auszugehen, dass Verbraucher zwischen dem Nutzen einer Aktion und dem Aufwand bei der Wahrnehmung der Aktion abwägen. Im Rahmen einer Verbraucherbefragung zeigt sich eine deutliche Verbraucherpräferenz für das bekannte Sonderangebot, während aufwändigere Aktionsformen wie der Coupon eher abgelehnt werden. Daneben sind Opportunitätskosten der Zeit und Einkaufsfähigkeiten der Verbraucher wichtige Einflussfaktoren auf die Nutzung einer Aktion. Sales promotions like price actions,...

Institutional and governance factors influencing the performance of selected smallholder agricultural cooperatives in KwaZulu-Natal AgEcon
Chibanda, M.; Ortmann, Gerald F.; Lyne, Michael C..
This paper evaluates the impact of institutional and governance factors on the performance of 10 smallholder agricultural cooperatives in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN). Five of the cooperatives grow and market vegetables, three produce and market poultry, one is a beef production cooperative and another operates a bakery. The results of a cluster analysis suggest that the performance of the selected smallholder cooperatives is influenced by institutional and governance problems. Institutional problems give rise to low levels of equity and debt capital, reliance on government funding, low levels of investment, and subsequent loss of members. Governance problems are strongly linked to the absence of secret ballot, low levels of education, lack of production and...

Revenue and Cost Functions in PMP: a Methodological Integration for a Territorial Analysis of CAP AgEcon
Arfini, Filippo; Donati, Michele; Grossi, L.; Paris, Quirino.
An integrated policy evaluation tool is proposed for assessing the effects of agricultural policy measures using all the information available at farm level. The tool combines the positive mathematical programming methodology with the cluster analysis technique by using the same panel of data. The PMP model proposed here allows to measure the effects of policy in term of agricultural supply responses including output market price variations. The novel procedure by which the PMP model is articulated permits to recover the set of farm level demand functions for agricultural products and the cost function characterizing the given sample of farms. Cluster analysis is useful for better appreciating the behaviour of farms before and after the policy scenario...

Variations in Farm Performance: Evidence from the CEECs and Existing EU Member States AgEcon
Davidova, Sophia; Gorton, Matthew; Ratinger, Tomas; Zawalinska, Katarzyna; Iraizoz, Belen; Kovacs, Barna; Mizo, Tamas.
This paper attempts to shed light on the recent performance of farms in the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland and to compare the findings from the CEECs with the EU situation. Utilising farm survey data, ratios of agricultural profitability and productivity have been estimated and clusters of farms with similar characteristics have been identified. Analysis indicates that the Hungarian farms have the best prospects amongst the analysed accession countries according to their profitability. The poor profitability and structural problems of Polish agriculture are highlighted. The family farms are less productive than corporate farms in the Czech Republic and Hungary despite the expectations at the outset of the reform that better incentives will boost their...
