Evaluacion de preferencias hacia las mandarinas en el mercado britanico. Aplicacion de las subastas Vickrey AgEcon
Martinez-Carrasco, Laura; Vidal, Fernando; Poole, Nigel D..
El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar las preferencias de los consumidores británicos hacia cinco variedades de mandarinas (dos de ellas españolas) en tres condiciones de información diferentes: inspección visual, pelado y cata. Se aborda por tanto el proceso de compra desde dos perspectivas: antes y después de experimentar el producto, y considerando tanto atributos de búsqueda como atributos de experiencia. Se pretende asimismo estudiar las posibilidades de mercado de las variedades españolas en el mercado británico. La metodología empleada ha sido la subasta experimental Vickrey de segundo precio con dos tratamientos experimentales: la mitad de los grupos realizó una valoración hedónica de las frutas antes de emitir las pujas, mientras que la...

Valuing Animal Welfare Labels with Experimental Auctions: What do we learn from Consumers? AgEcon
Gracia, Azucena; Loureiro, Maria L.; Nayga, Rodolfo M., Jr..
In this paper two types of experimental auctions (endowment and full bidding) are used to elicit consumer preferences towards different labels providing information on animal welfare practices. The three types of labeling schemes evaluated are the comprehensive “animal welfare label”, the “good animal housing”, and the “good human-animal relation and transport conditions”. Our results suggest that there are no statistically significant differences in the elicited values across labelling schemes. However, there are clear differences across auction types. Bids elicited from auctions in which participants were endowed with the product are higher than those from auctions in which participants had to fully bid for the product. Recommendations and policy...

Choosing a Cigarette Brand: Determining the Value of Countermarketing Information to Smokers Using Field Auctions AgEcon
Rousu, Matthew C.; Nonnemaker, James; Farrelly, Matthew.
Information about cigarettes can help smokers come to an informed decision about what cigarettes to purchase. Countermarketing information can help smokers make informed decisions, but little is known about the value of this information to smokers. In this article, we use data from experimental auctions to estimate the value of countermarketing information that counters industry claims about reduced-risk cigarettes. We find that this information has significant value to smokers who have been exposed to marketing information from tobacco companies touting reduced-risk cigarettes, but we find no evidence it provides value to smokers not exposed to this marketing information.

Estimating the Impact of Food and Drug Administration Regulation of Cigarette Package Warning Labels and the Potential Added Impact of Plain Packaging: Evidence From Experimental Auctions Among Adult Smokers AgEcon
Thrasher, James F.; Rousu, Matthew C.; Hammond, David; Navarro, Ashley; Corrigan, Jay R..
Objective: To estimate differences in demand for cigarette packages with different packaging and health warning label formats. Methods: Adult smokers (n=404) in four states participated in experimental auctions. Participants bid on two of four experimental conditions, each involving a different health warning label format but with the same warning message: 1. text on 50% of pack side; 2. text on 50% of the pack front and back; 3. text with a graphic picture on 50% of the pack front and back; and 4. same as previous format, but without brand imagery. Results: Mean bids decreased across conditions (1. $3.52; 2. $3.43; 3. $3.11; 4. $2.93). Bivariate and multivariate random effects models indicated that there was no statistically significant difference...

Unstable Individual Bids and Stable Market Demand AgEcon
Alfnes, Frode; Rickertsen, Kyrre; Shogren, Jason F..
We explore preference stability at the individual and market level. We examine individual bidding behavior among 116 French consumers who participated in experimental auctions conducted seven months apart for five types of fish. We reject preference stability at the individual level, but not at the aggregate market level.

Discounting Spotted Apples: Investigating Consumers' Willingness to Accept Cosmetic Damage in an Organic Product AgEcon
Yue, Chengyan; Alfnes, Frode; Jensen, Helen H..
Organic producers have limited methods of avoiding plant diseases that result in cosmetic damage to produce. Therefore, the appearance of organic produce is often less than perfect. We use an experimental auction to investigate how cosmetic damage affects consumers' willingness to pay for organic apples. We find that 75% of the participants are willing to pay more for organic than for conventional apples given identical appearance. However, at the first sight of any imperfection in the appearance of the organic apples, this segment is significantly reduced. Furthermore, we find that there is a significant effect of interaction between cosmetic damage and product methods. Even though most consumers say they buy organic products to avoid pesticides, we find...

Testing Whether Field Auction Experiments Are Demand Revealing in Practice AgEcon
Corrigan, Jay R.; Rousu, Matthew C..
Recent evidence suggests that participants' misunderstanding of experimental auction mechanism can systematically bias auction results. We present a simple technique for testing whether field auction mechanism and, by extension, whether auction bids provide an unbiased estimate of participants' willingness to pay.

Health and Environmental Benefits of Reduced Pesticide Use in Uganda: An Experimental Economics Analysis AgEcon
Bonabana-Wabbi, Jackline; Taylor, Daniel B..
Two experimental procedures were employed to value both health and environmental benefits from reducing pesticide use in Uganda. The first experiment, an incentive compatible auction involved subjects with incomplete information placing bids to avoid consuming potentially contaminated groundnuts/water in a framed field experimental procedure. Three experimental treatments (information, proxy good, and group treatments) were used. Subjects were endowed with a monetary amount (starting capital) equivalent to half the country’s per capita daily income (in small denominations). Two hundred and fifty seven respondents were involved in a total of 35 experimental sessions in Kampala and Iganga districts. The Kampala sample consisted of urban (professional)...

Discounting Spotted Apples: Investigating Consumers’ Willingness to Accept Cosmetic Damage in an Organic Product AgEcon
Yue, Chengyan; Alfnes, Frode; Jensen, Helen H..
The appearance of organic produce is often less than perfect because of limited methods of avoiding plant diseases. We combine hypothetical and real auction mechanisms to investigate how cosmetic damage affects consumers’ willingness to pay for apples. We find that 75% of the participants are willing to pay more for organic than for conventional apples given identical appearance. However, at the first sight of any imperfection in the appearance of the organic apples, this segment is significantly reduced. Furthermore, the cosmetic damage has a larger impact on the willingness to pay for organic apples than for conventional apples.

Valuing Conflicting Public Information About a New Technology: The Case of Irradiated Foods AgEcon
Rousu, Matthew C.; Shogren, Jason F..
Scientists and advocates can disagree on the value of new products or technologies, such as growth hormones, genetically modified organisms, and food irradiation. Both sides of the debate disseminate information to the public hoping to influence public opinion. This study assesses the economic value of both pro and anti public information using food irradiation as a case study. The value of information sources is estimated in isolation and in combination. In isolation, the results indicate each set of information has value. In combination, only the anti-irradiation information is found to have net positive value (persuading some consumers to purchase non-irradiated products). Pro-irradiation information worked to decrease the value of anti-irradiation...

Comparing Accuracy and Costs of Revealed and Stated Preferences: The Case of Consumer Acceptance of Yellow Maize in East Africa AgEcon
Kimenju, Simon Chege; De Groote, Hugo; Morawetz, Ulrich B..
For quite a while, stated preferences have been a major tool to measure consumer preferences for new products and services. Revealed preference methods, in particular experimental economics, have gained popularity recently because they have been shown to be more incentive compatible, and therefore more accurate. However, this advantage comes at the expense of higher survey costs. In the developing countries with limited funding for research, it is important to determine whether the extra cost can be justified by the extra gain in accuracy. A survey of 100 farmers was carried out in Western Kenya to determine consumer preference for yellow maize using the contingent valuation, choice experiments and experimental auction methods. Experimental auctions...

U.S. Consumers' Willingness to Pay for Flavor and Tenderness in Steaks as Determined with an Experimental Auction AgEcon
Feuz, Dillon M.; Umberger, Wendy J.; Calkins, Chris R.; Sitz, Bethany M..
In a study of beef quality, consumers tasted steak samples and participated in an experimental auction to determine their willingness to pay. Steaks differed in marbling, tenderness, country of origin, and aging method. Marbling and tenderness had statistically significant impacts on consumers' palatability ratings for steaks. Tenderness significantly impacted consumers' willingness-to pay values. There appear to be threshold levels of marbling and tenderness, below which consumers discount steaks. Steaks from Australia were rated lower for overall acceptability, and bids were lower than for the U.S. steak samples. Dry-aging methods negatively impacted taste panel ratings and bids.
