The U.S. agricultural food processing and retailing industries have become increasingly concentrated. Therefore, numerous studies have investigated the impact of changes in market structures. This paper examines the importance of the bilateral relationship between retailers and processors in estimating market power parameters in imperfectly competitive markets. The model developed in this study allows one to estimate conjectural elasticities of input and output markets for processors and retailers separately without imposing the fixed proportions technology assumption. This study uses the primal approach to estimate the degree of market power without imposing the symmetry assumption on conjectural elasticities of input and output markets. To demonstrate the importance of considering the bilateral relationship between retailers and processors, we first generate industry data for market structures such as perfect competition, monopoly, monopsony, two-way bilateral competition, and four-way bilateral competition. The importance of using more general and flexible frameworks is demonstrated using likelihood dominance criterion (LDC), and biases in estimates of market power parameters and industry indices. We find that the model correctly estimates market power and flexible enough to consider the full range of the bilateral market power exertion. The four-way bilateral competition model is applied to the U.S. beef industry estimating conjectural elasticities from input and output markets, and corresponding market power indices. Sensitivity analysis is conducted using alternative functional forms of production function. Empirical results show that processors and retailers exercise market power in both input and output markets in the U.S. beef industry. Furthermore, estimated market power parameters and market power indices are sensitive to the choice of market structures and functional forms.

Agriculture is the product of a complex mixture of behavioural, biophysical and market drivers. Understanding how these factors interact to produce crops and livestock for food has been the focus of economic investigation for many years. The advent of optimisation algorithms and the exponential growth in computing technology has allowed significant growth in mathematical modelling of the dynamics of agricultural systems. The complexity of approaches has grown in parallel with the availability of data at increasingly finer resolutions. Farm-level models have been widely used in agricultural economic studies to understand how farmers and land owners respond to market and policy levers. This book provides an in-depth description of different methodologies and techniques currently used in farm-level modelling. While giving an overview of the theoretical grounding behind the models, an applied approach is also used. Case studies range from the application of modelling to policy reforms and the subsequent impacts on rural communities and food supply. This book also provides descriptions of the use of farm-level models in much wider fields such as aggregation and linking with sectoral models. Its purpose is to show the reader the methods that have been employed to inform decision-makers about how to improve the economic, social and environmental goals required to achieve the aims of multidimensional policy.

This edited volume presents ethical and economic analyses of agrifood competition. By systematically examining fairness and openness in agricultural markets, it seeks to answer the question of whether there is adequate competition in the agrifood industry and whether the system is fair to all participants. It outlines ethical and economic principles important for understanding agrifood competition, presents arguments for and against consolidation, globalization and the integration of agrifood industries, and looks at the implications of globalization on the nature of competition in specific agricultural contexts.

This book presents a multi-market framework of market and policy analysis that explicitly accounts for the empirically relevant heterogeneity in consumer preferences and producer characteristics. The explicit consideration of consumer and producer heterogeneity represents a significant departure from the representative consumer and producer that have been at the center of most of the literature on market and policy analysis, and enables the distributional impacts of changes in market conditions and policies to be fully identified. The framework is used to analyze the system-wide market and welfare impacts of a number of changes in market conditions (like changes in consumer preferences, costs and market structure) and policies (like subsidies and taxes) on one of the products in the system. Consistent with a priori expectations, the use of the framework unveils impacts masked by the conventional market and policy analysis.
