This paper studies the demand of domestic and imported livestock by the U.S. meat processing industry. Two types of meats are analyzed: slaughter cattle and hogs. Static and dynamic inverse input demand models are estimated. The static inversed input demand model performed better than the dynamic inversed input demand models. Calculated own price elasticities (flexibilities) and cross price elasticities (flexibilities) indicate that the demand for imported livestock by the meat processing industry is very sensitive to the change in the domestic price for livestock. The demand of domestic slaughter livestock is less sensitive to the change in imported livestock prices. |

This paper analyzes the European Union (EU) import demand for in-shell peanuts from three sources: the United States, China, and the rest of the world. We find that peanuts from different sources are differentiated by EU consumers. The expenditure elasticity is elastic for U.S. in-shell peanuts, which is associated with their higher quality. The conditional own price elasticities are more elastic for U.S. and Chinese in-shell peanuts. These findings have at least two implications. First, U.S. producers and exporters should direct efforts to ensure that in-shell peanuts exported to the EU are of the best possible quality, and, second, promotion efforts should stress the quality of U.S peanuts as an advertising tool. |

The objective of this study is to propose a system of input demand functions consistent with the theory of the firm where promotion is treated as an information input in the production function. The empirical model is applied to the European Union (EU) input demand for shelled peanuts. The information input is measured as Euros spent on the U.S. Foreign Market Development program (FMD) on peanuts by the U.S. in the EU market. We find that the FMD program had a positive effect on the EU demand for U.S. shelled peanuts. This result suggests that the information provided to manufactures through the FMD has helped to increase the demand for shelled U.S. peanuts in the EU markets. The estimated marginal return of U.S. export promotion expenditures on the FMD... |
