| This paper derives sufficient conditions (in terms of supply and demand elasticities) for producers to gain under different supply shifts when supply and demand are specified to be linear functions and supply is inelastic. It is shown that regardless of the type of supply shift, producers lose whenever the sum of absolute values of supply and demand elasticities is less than one, while they gain when production takes place in the elastic portion of the demand. In all other cases arising from alternative elasticity configurations simple formulas developed in this paper may be used to determine the direction of change in producers surplus. |

| This paper examines the cointegration of grain market prices in Northern Ethiopia. Results are based on bi-monthly retail price data on wheat and teff collected from six markets in the Tigray region of Northern Ethiopia. The data has 55 observations for each of the two crops in each of the six markets ranging over a period of May 2006 to October 2008. Johansen’s cointegration test reveals that most markets are cointegrated in wheat and teff retail prices. There is an indication that retail prices at Abi-Adi, a town located relatively farther away from the main asphalt road, is less integrated to other markets. This implies that infrastructural development is crucial for spatial market integration through market information transmission and physical... |

| This study examines the impact of alternative price stabilization policies for edible oils and oilseeds in India on the farmers growing oilseeds, the consumers of edible oils and the processing sector with the help of a multi market equilibrium dynamic simulation model. Price stability in the edible oil sector is important at least for two reasons. It can help realize the growth potential in the production of edible oils and improve the nutritional security of Indian households. While efficiency considerations suggest the linking of domestic to world prices, extreme fluctuations in price have to be avoided, for they can lead to undesirable consequences both at the macro and micro levels. The questions addressed in this study include the following. What is... |

| Existing empirical evidence on the impact of macroeconomic variables on agriculture remains mixed and inconclusive. This paper re-examines the dynamic relationship between monetary policy variables and agricultural prices using alternative vector autoregression (VAR) type model specifications. Directed acyclic graph theory is proposed as an alternative modeling approach to supplement existing modeling methods. Similar to results in other studies, this studys findings show that over the time period analyzed (19752000), changes to money supply as a monetary policy tool had little or no impact on agricultural prices. The primary macroeconomic policy instrument that affects agricultural prices is the exchange rate, which is shown to be directly linked to... |

| Weekly demand functions are estimated for bananas traded on the Sydney wholesale market using data for the period 1953 to 1967. Graphs of these functions suggest that the demand for bananas varies in a systematic fashion through the year. Further research will be required before it is possible to identify the specific dynamic factors responsible for these demand shifts. However, the short-run relationships which have been estimated provide quantitive information which could be used to evaluate the potential benefits to growers of a planned marketing program. |
