Abstract

Several studies have estimated the demand for fish using a variety of modeling procedures. In light of differences in the literature, we perform a meta-analysis of the own-price elasticity of fish from a survey of 168 studies. Regressing the own-price elasticity on study characteristics, we find the own-price elasticity is sensitive to demand specification, data issues, estimation method, and publication characteristics. Also, not only is the demand for salmon more price elastic compared to other fish, but the U.S. demand for fish is more price elastic compared to other countries.
