| This study uses the inverse almost ideal demand system (IAIDS) to estimate demand flexibilities for beef, small ruminant (sheep and goat) meat, pork and poultry in Tanzania. Own uncompensated price flexibilities were less than one in absolute value, implying that both direct and indirect induced price effect through a change in total expenditure have little impact on budget shares. Estimated scale flexibilities were all negative, suggesting that increases in income will increase the quantities of meat consumed. Production of small ruminant meat was the most attractive investment compared to other meat commodities. |

| A two-stage budgeting LES-LA/AIDS system is sued to estimate rural household demand in China with special emphasis on changes in demand for fruit and vegetable commodities across different income groups. The own-price elasticity for food was found to be more elastic than that for clothing, housing, durable goods, and other items. Within the food group, price elasticities range from -1.042 to -0.019. Grain, with an expenditure elasticity of almost unity, is an important staple food for the average rural household. Vegetables are important nonstaple foods relative to fruits. Lower value vegetables are the most price elastic in the vegetable group. Fruits are more price elastic than vegetables, with grapes being the most price elastic. Different income... |
