This paper estimates the effects of media coverage of organic food production on food purchases. Information from several data sources links national and local newspaper coverage to fluid milk purchases. An analysis of weekly store-level scanner data in a differences-in-differences approach results in a 5% increase in organic milk sales relative to conventional milk sales. Increases in intensity of news coverage increase this relative difference in sales. Differentiating effects by media context further suggests that product category specific coverage increases sales more than general coverage. Critical coverage does not result in significant effects on organic milk sales. |

The purpose of this paper is to identify the attributes of beef that affect the buying decisions of the consumers of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. A descriptive survey was conducted with quantitative variables, with a total of 400 interviews at the point of retail purchase, using structured questionnaires with multiple-choice questions only. It was possible to verify that the attributes considered most important by the consumers regarding the beef were: hygiene, smell, appearance, additive-free, healthy appearance, freshness, flavor, tenderness, color, and nutritional value. We found significant statistical differences between the consumer’s clusters. It indicates that the attributes of the beef that affect the buying decisions are related to gender, age,... |

O crescimento do mercado mundial de alimentos orgânicos nos últimos dez anos tem aumentado a demanda por estudos relacionados a esse tema. Os supermercados têm se mostrado agentes relevantes na distribuição desses produtos no Brasil e no exterior. Este trabalho tem por objetivo descrever as características do comportamento do consumidor de frutas, legumes e verduras (FLV) orgânicas na cidade de Uberlândia, Minas Gerais. Mais especificamente, buscou-se evidenciar tal comportamento com base no encadeamento entre atributos, conseqüências (benefícios que esses atributos são capazes de prover) e valores pessoais dos consumidores. Foram realizadas trinta entrevistas em profundidade, sendo que, para a coleta, análise e interpretação dos dados, utilizou-se a... |

The market for organic products in Urumqi is at the beginning of its development. The objective of this paper is to gain knowledge about consumers attitudes toward organic food in Urumqi which is the capital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. The consumers attitudes were collected by means of a face-to-face survey. Attitudes, purchasing frequency, supply satisfaction and beliefs about organic food were studied with a sample of 720 consumers. The data obtained from the survey were analyzed with univariate analysis, chi-square test, ANOVA and correlation analysis. About 44.9% of Urumqi consumers had never heard of organic food. Urumqi consumers who know organic food consider organically-grown products as very healthy, of good quality and tasty.... |

This study examines the impact of two beef safety scares on retail-level meat per capita consumption and prices in Japan. The objective is to investigate the Japanese consumer reactions to the news of FMD and BSE discoveries, as reflected in the quantity and price changes in the immediate neighborhood of each event. Better understanding of consumer reactions to beef safety scares helps the beef industry restore consumer confidence after food safety crises and provides opportunities for national-level product differentiation based on beef quality and traceability. |

The main objective of this article was to analyze consumer responses to agricultural produce advertising. A survey was given to a non-probabilistic sample of 400 consumers in Rancagua, the capital city of the O'Higgins Region. A principal components analysis (PCA) was performed to identify the main factors influencing the consumption of agricultural produce and recognized four factors that influence the consumption of agricultural products: influence of advertising, impact of produce advertising, consumption of vegetables, and advertising preference. Additionally, the market segments that respond to agricultural produce advertising were identified using decision-tree methodology (CHAID). The results show that education is the most important segmenting... |

The introduction and communication of new technologies in the food industries has given rise in the past to some scientific uncertainty that hampers informed choice. Here we draw upon the case of Genetically Modified (GM) technology and, in particular, on different types of GM food, to investigate consumers’ behavioural reactions to GM food as well as their willingness to pay for avoiding GM food in three EU countries, Denmark, GB and Spain in 2007. Our unique contribution lies in that our empirical analysis concerns two food products containing different characteristics. In particular, we compare consumers’ reactions to cornflakes (to represent a processed food) and tomatoes (to represent a 'fresh' food) juxtaposed with GM and conventionally produced... |
