This book was released on 1972 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Production and marketing are two important activities of the U.S. beef industry. Spatial differences in these activities result due to the existing cost differences in production and marketing of beef. The overall objective of this study is to determine simultaneously interregional and interseasonal equilibrium, with respect to beef production and marketing in the U.S., with special emphasis on the Pacific Northwest region. Market equilibrium was defined as the stage at which demand was exactly equal to supply for each product in each season and in each region. The reactive programming algorithm was used as the computational means. The CDC 3300 computer was used to obtain the results. The continental U.S. was divided into 12 regions. Fed and nonfed beef were defined as two products available in two seasons in 1967. Supply estimates were made for each product for each region in each season. Demand equations were defined for each product in each season and in each region. Transfer costs were also estimated. The equilibrium shipment patterns, and market prices were obtained for each product in each region during each season. It was concluded that, subject to the restrictions imposed on the equilibrium solution, the shipment patterns obtained approximated the actual industry observations fairly well. Comparison of simple average seasonal market prices and computed equilibrium prices showed that computed prices were in reasonable proximity with actual market prices. Possible reasons behind discrepancies existing between the equilibrium solutions obtained from the model and actual observations were, discussed in detail. It was pointed out that the analytical model could be useful provided the supply and demand estimates, coefficients of demand functions, feed and nonfeed costs estimates, and transportation rates were reasonably accurate. Effects of changes in truck transportation rates, availability of backhauls, and increase in slaughter demand for fed beef in Washington on equilibrium flows of fed and nonfed beef and prices were analyzed. The study revealed that interregional flows and prices of fed and nonfed beef were very sensitive to truck transportation rates. The effects of backhauls analyzed in this study indicated that Idaho will lose some of its competitive advantage to Montana- Wyoming, and Arizona-New Mexico regions in supplying fed beef to either Oregon or Washington, and nonfed beef to Colorado. Idaho, Montana-Wyoming, and Colorado are expected to meet Washington's increased slaughter demand for fed beef.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "By the late nineteenth century, Americans rich and poor had come to expect high-quality fresh beef with almost every meal. Beef production in the United States had gone from small-scale, localized operations to a highly centralized industry spanning the country, with cattle bred on ranches in the rural West, slaughtered in Chicago, and consumed in the nation's rapidly growing cities. Red Meat Republic tells the remarkable story of the violent conflict over who would reap the benefits of this new industry and who would bear its heavy costs"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The success of the U.S. government in persuading Japan to liberalize the beef market is viewed as a relief to the U.S. beef industry. The economic benefit (to the U.S. beef producers!) of the trade liberalization however is yet to be seen. The size of this benefit is determined, among others, by (a) the net change in Japan's retail price due to the liberalization, (b) the price elasticity of demand for the U.S. beef in Japan, (c) the degree of price rise in the world market, and (d) the export capacity of the domestic sector. Availability of alternative beef sources and the degree of substitutability between the U.S. beef and those alternatives affect factor (b) and factor (d) depends on the extent to which beef and other meat products substitute each other in the domestic market both in production and consumption. Evaluation of the U.S. - Japan Beef Market Access Agreement (BMAA) therefore has become a high policy profile. In the interest of assessing possible policy effects of BMAA, several researchers have attempted to parameterize and quantify the Japanese demand for beef. The fact that this market is (a) semi-isolated from the rest of the world by restrictive import quota, (b) managed domestically by government parastatal, and (c) characterized by multi- and intensely differentiated beef with no parallel historical data has made the choice of economic theory and methodology difficult. While most researchers (Group 1) relied on conventional method [e.g. 55; 125], others (Group 2) [2] contend that managed import market may better be explained by a model of political nature. By assuming the usual competitive market behavior, Group 1 underestimates possible implications of existing market structure for building and estimating conventional econometric models. Group 2, on the other hand, limits itself to normative analysis. Due to the absence of consensus among researchers regarding implications of policy-relevant parameters, the desirability of the BMAA is still an unsettled policy issue. The general purpose of this study has been to generate some further information on Japan's beef market. In pursuant of this objective, an attempt is made to (a) show how significant the beef quality issue is in evaluating that market, (b) test the market equilibrium hypothesis, and (c) upon the acceptance of the alternative (disequilibrium) hypothesis, estimate the structural parameters from a model specified in the light of imperfections in the market. This fills the void in previous studies. Drawing on existing literature, the beef quality categories are shown to have been narrowing and, in fact, converging to the two middle categories, medium and common grades. It is suggested that future market studies may benefit from concentrating on these two grades in assessing competitiveness and substitutability with domestic beef. Understanding the nature of this convergence (i.e whether the shift is attributable to changes in cost or preference structure) may contribute to sound policy making. Based on (a) increased concentration in production and distribution sectors, (b) government intervention in beef and related markets, (c) high degree heterogeneity in beef, and (d) short-run supply inflexibility due to long fattening period and restrictive import policy, the Japanese beef market was hypothesized to have been in disequilibria due to incomplete market information. In testing this hypothesis, two data sets were used -Statistical Yearbook and the Family Income and Expenditure Survey. For reference purposes, they are referred to as Market I and Market II respectively. The equilibrium hypothesis was tested for uniform and upward and downward differential adjustment speeds. The uniform adjustment rate estimated from the reduced form price equation supports the hypothesis in both markets. The structural equations were then adjusted in the light of the imperfections in the market and structural parameters estimated using non-linear three stage least squares. Both upward and downward adjustment speeds in Market I suggest perfect flexibility in prices on annual basis. In Market II, prices are found to have been flexible downward but rigid otherwise. The upward rigidity in prices suggest excess demand. Perfect flexibility in prices on annual basis however may not suggest market equilibrium in a period less than a year. Consumers are found to be more price responsive than in previous studies implying a greater response of the demand for beef imports to changes in prices due to the liberalization than envisaged by previous studies. The demand for beef however is income inelastic suggesting a partial offsetting in the incremental demand for imports. Finally, consumers respond to changes in beef retail prices by consuming less fish and poultry.
