The Government's Behaviour Functions in Determining Producer Prices for Export Crops,
by Patrick Guillaumont, Catherine Bonjean.
This paper presents and tests several models characteristic of the government's behaviour in determining the real producer prices for export crops, assuming that the country is a price-taker on the world market. Depending on whether or not there are marketing boards or similar price-stabilization schemes: total, dampered or partial stabilization or total pass-through of international price fluctuations, to what extent producer prices are on a par with international ones varies a great deal. A few hypotheses are then introduced on the use the government will make of the stabilization schemes, the rate of exchange depreciations, as well as the impact of these depreciations on the real exchange rate. The models are tested to describe the policies that are implemented by the Ivory Coast, Kenya and Madagascar in setting up real producer prices for coffee . Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
