Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/61841 The Returns to Promotion of Healthy Choices in Tasmania: Are You in the Dark about the Power of Mushrooms? AgEcon Alston, Julian M.; Parks, Joanna C.. The Australian Mushroom Growers Association (AMGA) has recently developed a revised marketing strategy to promote mushrooms using messages based on scientific findings about the nutrition and health consequences of regularly incorporating mushrooms into meals. This article evaluates impacts based on a test-market experiment in Tasmania. We use a difference-in-differences econometric methodology to quantify the program-induced shifts in demand, and we use the resulting estimates in a supply and demand modeling framework to quantify the effects of promotion-induced demand shifts on prices, quantities, and measures of economic well-being. We estimate a conservative benefit-cost ratio for Tasmanian producers of 7.6:1 if they were to bear the entire cost and... Tipo: Presentation Palavras-chave: Marketing. Ano: 2012 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/124359 The Effects of the Food Stamp Program on Energy Balance and Obesity AgEcon Parks, Joanna C.; Smith, Aaron D.; Alston, Julian M.. The Food Stamp Program (FSP) administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is the cornerstone of the U.S. federal income and food safety net policy. The FSP has subsidized the food budget for millions of American households for over forty years, spending more than $60 billion per year in recent times. Prior research has demonstrated that women who participate in the FSP are more likely to be overweight or obese than eligible non-participants. This finding raises the concern that the additional income provided by FSP benefits induces participants to eat significantly more calories and gain weight, contributing to the U.S. obesity epidemic. Previous studies of the FSP have yielded mixed results. In this study we develop new conceptual and...
