Meat quality is currently conditioned to the fulfilment of different requirements concerning food safety and other ethic and social aspects. Nevertheless, restrictions and other considerations going faster than the above mentioned aspects could be applied in order to gain a higher consumer’s satisfaction, that’s to say, a higher quality. On the other hand, many different studies point to the existence of important shifts that manifest the need to increase the knowledge about consumer’s preferences. This work analyzes different strategies used to increase beef quality, guarantying such quality with the presence of a particular distinctive or brand, at the same time that some aspects concerning consumer’s behaviour behind beef quality are manifested.

The study is a preliminary research which intends to generate additional knowledge about the role of the different variables which... |

Agricultural outputs are immersed in a context of change characterized by an evolution from the quantity to the quality, in consonance with consumer's demand. Among the different productions, beef has been one of the more affected goods, due to the confluence of different factors, such as: the high international competition, the existing surpluses in the European Union, food crisis, as EEB, and more recently, those aspects related to animal welfare and the environment. Integrating quality beef into the food chain, and particularly, the one coming from extensive breeding systems, evidence different aspects insufficiently well-known, both, from the point of view of the production as from the demand. This article, try to identify such factors in order to get... |

The notable growth experienced by organic agriculture in Spain, has not been accompanied by a similar development in the consumption of organic foods, with most of the organic agricultural output being exported. This study focuses in analyzing Spanish consumer's attitude versus organic foods, in order to identify the factors that influence the demand. For this purpose, 130 surveys are conducted among consumers in a medium-sized city in Spain and processed using different statistical analysis, determining the level of knowledge about these products, consumer's shopping habits, and criteria, which support or dissuade the consumption of these products. |
