Book Logistics Costs of Rice and Soybean

Download or read book Logistics Costs of Rice and Soybean written by Adithya Prabowo and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper focuses on the challenges in the logistics of rice and soybeans in Indonesia. Rice distribution is complicated because rice production is concentrated in Java, while its consumption is high all over Indonesia. Soybeans are predominantly import and must contend with both import logistics and domestic logistics challenges. At the national level, logistics roughly contributes 21-23% of Indonesia's gross domestic product (GDP), much higher than in other developing countries. Transportation and inventory costs dominate logistics costs in Indonesia, while administrative costs such as fees and charges at the port contribute less than 6%. High logistics costs are passed on to consumers, raising the prices of goods, including staple foods.

Book Assessing the impact of rice price stabilization policies in Bangladesh  Results from a stochastic spatial equilibrium model

Download or read book Assessing the impact of rice price stabilization policies in Bangladesh Results from a stochastic spatial equilibrium model written by Minot, Nicholas and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2024-05-13 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rice plays a central role in the diet in Bangladesh and as a source of income for farmers. Although Bangladesh has largely liberalized international trade in rice, it maintains a public food distribution system to stablize prices, distributing an average of 2 million tons of rice per year at a cost of almost US$ 800 million per year. This study explores whether alternative policies could achieve similar stabilization at a lower cost. It uses a stochastic spatial-equilibrium model of rice markets to simulate monthly prices in eight regions of the country. Stochastic shocks are used to simulate fluctuations in regional production, replicating historical patterns at the region-season level, as well as inter-regional correlation in production shocks. It also simulates fluctuation in world rice prices, mimicking the mean, variance, and serial correlation of historical wholesale prices of rice in Delhi. Public procurement and distribution follow historic averages by month and region. Private storage is represented by a simplified version of rational expectations models, in which net storage is a non-linear function of availability in the previous month. One set of simulations tests alternative levels of distribution, finding that cutting distribution to 1 million tons would have minimal effects on the level of rice price stability. Another set of simulations tested different import tariff levels, including the baseline rate of 25%1. We find that lower tariffs result in both lower rice prices and less price instability, as world rice prices tend to be more stable than local prices. Simulating a buffer stock with different price bands shows that a narrow band can achieve high price stability but at a high fiscal cost. A 20 T/kg (USD 0.26/kg) price band generates similar price stabilization at a lower cost compared to current policy. However, it is difficult to set the “right” purchase and sale price, and many simulations result in exhausting reserves or reaching warehouse capacity. An adaptive buffer stock, in which the price is adjusted as the stock runs too low or too high, solves some of these problems. In general, the study finds that current procurement and distribution patterns do not match well with the regional and monthly patterns of surplus and deficit, possibly reflecting multiple and conflicting goals of the public food distribution system.

Book Volatile Rice Prices

Download or read book Volatile Rice Prices written by Kordula Pfeiffer and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2013-11-26 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject Economics - Macro-economics, general, Humboldt-University of Berlin (Department of Agricultural Economics), course: Open Economy Macroeconomics and International Agricultural Trade, language: English, abstract: This paper describes the impacts of rice price fluctuations and price shocks due to crises on domestic households in Indonesia. In the long term the country was able to reduce poverty and undernourishment, because of its steady and strong economic growth. A typical household spends nearly half of its total food intake on rice. Therefore, high rice prices make especially the poor vulnerable to price increases. In order to estimate how and to which extend rice price volatility affects demand, the daily calorie intake is focused with regard to a price increase of 10 % and 30 %. Based on the assumption that people are food insecure a total calorie intake of 2,100 calories/day/person is taken into account as poverty line. Usually households consume less rice if the price is on a higher level. In Indonesia richer households have a more price-elastic demand if rice prices increases than poor households. On the contrary, those who are net consumers or producers of rice as well as governmental supported poor households have a relatively price-inelastic demand for rice. This fact is different for households which differ in income level and location. This paper comes up with the conclusion that for rich urban households rice is a Giffen good and that they consume more of it when prices are high while the consumption of poorer rural households suffers. The same procedure applies for rural households.

Download or read book The Rice Crisis written by David Dawe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-07-26 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent escalation of world food prices – particularly for cereals - prompted mass public indignation and demonstrations in many countries, from the price of tortilla flour in Mexico to that of rice in the Philippines and pasta in Italy. The crisis has important implications for future government trade and food security policies, as countries re-evaluate their reliance on potentially more volatile world markets to augment domestic supplies of staple foods. This book examines how government policies caused and responded to soaring world prices in the particular case of rice, which is the world's most important source of calories for the poor. Comparable case studies of policy reactions in different countries, principally across Asia, but also including the USA, provide the understanding necessary to evaluate the impact of trade policy on the food security of poor farmers and consumers. They also provide important insights into the concerns of developing countries that are relevant for future international trade negotiations in key agricultural commodities. As a result, more appropriate policies can be put in place to ensure more stable food supplies in the future. Published with the Food and Agriculture (FAO) Organization of the United Nations
