An estimation of individual demand function for meat in Iraq during the period 1995-2014

Red meat is an essential and important source of human consumption because it is rich in human protein. It is expected that the consumption of red meat will increase significantly in the coming years. Therefore, the problem of the study is the decline of the Iraqi share of consumption for global and Arab consumption due to high commodity prices resulting from the difference between supply and demand, Alternative products, including fish meat during the current years, the study aimed to estimate the function of individual demand for red meat by studying the effect of explanatory variables (prices of red meat, price of chicken meat, price of fish meat, share of Response from the national income on the dependent variable (average per capita red meat) search time series data was adopted Time series Data Eviews were used and the mean squares method was estimated and the function was estimated. The results showed that the double logarithmic function is the best of these functions according to the statistical tests such as T, F, R2, and the second-degree tests, which proved to be free of standard problems. The elasticity of the price demand was 0.94 - less than the correct one. The elasticity of the demand is 1.78, which is positive to explain the positive relationship between income and quantity, which is consistent with the economic logic A number of conclusions were reached, the most important of which is the Iraqi consumer pattern, which is illustrated by the cross-elasticity of chicken meat and fish meat 1.008 and 0.19, which showed that these commodities are alternative to red meat. The annual growth rates during the study period per capita of red meat the prices of meat, chicken meat prices, fish meat prices and annual per capita income 7, 13, 6, 6, 19%. The study suggested a number of recommendations, the most important of which are the need to pay attention to the animal production sector and provide all means to develop the red meat production sector Available for consumption and reduce the phenomenon smuggling.

ANALISIS PERMINTAAN DAGING SAPI POTONG DI PROVINSI SUMATERA SELATAN

This research aims are to analyze production growth of beef in South Sumatra, to analyze behavior description of demand factors of beef in South Sumatra, to analyze response of factors that affect demand of beef in South Sumatra. This research used historical method. The data are analyzed in the model of econometrics and are processed with 2 SLS mode and followed by elasticity analyze. The results indicated that : 1) the development of beef production in South Sumatera continues to increase, despite it has not been able to fulfill all of beef demand in South Sumatera, 2) the factors that affect the demand of beef in South Sumatra are price of chicken meat, income in South Sumatera, and lagged demand of beef in South Sumatera, 3) In short-term, income is inelastic where the change in income is not responsive to the beef demand. This is due increase in income has not been able to increase their purchasing power. In long-term changes in income are responsive. Population changes in both the short-term and long-term are responsive to beef demand. It is because beef is not a staple food therefore population growth will cause the population to reduce the demand for food thatis not a staple food.

Modelling beef consumption in Turkey: the ARDL/bounds test approach

The study aimed to examine the short-run and long-run relationship between beef consumption and beef prices, chicken meat prices, and per capita income for the period of 1994?2014 in Turkey by employing the ARDL/bounds test approach. After deciding on the presence of cointegration between the related variables, a parsimonious VECM model was estimated to conduct the structural analyses of the impulse response function and variance decomposition. The results of the bounds test suggest a long-run equilibrium relationship between beef consumption and its selected determinants. In addition, the empirical findings indicate that chicken meat prices and per capita income level have a positive effect on beef consumption. The results of variance decomposition reveal that the portion of beef prices in explaining beef consumption is large, whereas chicken meat prices have decreasing impact and income level has increasing impact on beef consumption in the long run. The results of the impulse response function are also consistent with the theory. The findings suggest that beef consumption is sensitive to beef prices and responds negatively to a shock in beef prices.

Cointegração e transmissão de preços na avicultura em Pernambuco

A atividade avícola se destaca como um setor de grande relevância para o agronegócio brasileiro. Nos últimos anos a atividade apresentou crescimento significativo, e destaca-se no cenário de exportações. No entanto, um dos entraves para a consolidação do mercado pernambucano de carne de frango, frente às demais regiões, é a distância entre a região produtora e as regiões fornecedoras de dois de seus insumos, o milho e soja. Posto isso, o presente trabalho analisou a relação entre os preços dos insumos produtivos, milho e soja, e o preço da carne de frango no estado de Pernambuco no período de janeiro de 2005 a dezembro de 2014. Utilizou-se o modelo econométrico de séries temporais, empregando o método vetorial autoregressivo (VAR), o teste de Granger, e a função impulso resposta e a decomposição da variância. Os resultados demonstram que choques exógenos no preço do milho e da soja influenciam positivamente o preço do frango por um curto período após o choque inicial.

Analysis of factors affecting households’ fish consumption in Erzurum, Turkey

This paper focused on the socio-demographic factors influencing fish consumption in Erzurum, Turkey. The data were collected from 271 households by using face to face survey technique. The Logit model has been used to analyze the socio-economic factors affecting fish consumption of households. The prices of meat, chicken and fish, and income have been used as the variables affecting the probability of fish consumption. According to the results from logit regression analysis, red meat price, chicken meat price and income are significant and positively correlated with fish consumption. An increase in red meat price resulted in a 1.82 % increase in the likelihood to purchase fish. As in the price of meat, the estimated 0.02 change in probability for income indicated that a unit rise in chicken meat price caused a 2.25 % increase in the likelihood to purchase fish. In the light of the findings, it can be recommended that fish marketers and processors should consider income, the prices of red meat, chicken meat and fish among socioeconomic factors in their formulation of marketing strategies aimed at promoting fish consumption in Turkey. Furthermore, stocking and marketing conditions should be rearranged, and household and marketing standards should be formed.

Efeitos das variações cambiais sobre os preços da carne de frango no Brasil entre 2008 e 2012

Este artigo investiga a relação entre a taxa de câmbio real e os preços da carne de frango no Brasil, no período de 2008 a 2012. Para tanto, foi estimado um modelo Vetorial de Correção de Erros (VEC). Os resultados apontam a existência de uma relação de longo prazo estável entre a evolução do nível da taxa de câmbio real e o preço da carne de frango congelada - cointegração. Entretanto, as evidências acerca da sensibilidade dos preços da carne de frango em relação às variações na taxa de câmbio real, para o período analisado, são fracas. Por outro lado, o estudo sugere a causalidade no sentido inverso, ou a existência de commodity currency. O trabalho evidencia a importância da análise dos efeitos dos preços do frango congelado sobre a taxa de câmbio no período recente no Brasil.

An Integrated Artificial Neural Network and System Dynamics Approach in Support of the Viable System Model to Enhance Industrial Intelligence: The Case of a Large Broiler Industry

Organizational cybernetics is one of the powerful systems approaches that benefits from the viable system model (VSM). The model is very general and is usually in need of complementary methods. In this article, one of artificial intelligence methods, artificial neural networks (ANNs), and system dynamics simulation have been used in support of the VSM. Iran broiler industry is conceived as a complex economic system and has been modelled using VSM. Operational elements, coordination, control, development, policy functions and environment of the industry are identified. ANN has been utilized in service of the controller (system 3) and the intelligence function (system 4) of the industry. ANN helps system 3 to anticipate market deviation from defined targets and reduce action delays for feeding the system back. A model in which ANN and system dynamics simulation are combined helps systems 4 and 5 manage external relationships by facilitation of defining imports tariff for maize and soybean, which are detected as critical environmental elements in identifying the industry environment. Maize and soybean cost contribute to more than 60% of chicken meat cost in Iran. Chicken meat is a high‐consumed product all over the world and one of the main sources of protein. Suitable price of chicken meat is an important factor for the industry managers in Iran. As illustrated in the paper, artificial intelligence can improve VSM subsystems functioning and enhance the industry intelligence and regulation against internal and external oscillations.

Analisis Konsumsi Daging Sapi Di Provinsi Papua Barat

The study aims to determine the level of beef consumption and the factors that influence the consumption of beef in West Papua. The data used in this study are monthly time series data of BPS, sourced from all districts in the province of West Papua from 1990 to 2004. Data were analyzed by using multiple linear regression equation by Ordinary Least Square method. The results showed that the average beef consumption per capita per year for people of West Papua is 0.79 kg. The increasing of population and income per capita affected the increasing of beef consumption significantly. Increasing the price of chicken meat, pork prices and the price of rice has significant effect of reducing domestic consumption of beef. Increasing the price of tuna, squid and sweet potatoes have a significant effect in increasing of the domestic consumption of beef.

How (much) do food prices contribute to obesity in Russia?

High BMI and obesity contribute to the Russian health crisis. Previous studies have shown that weight status varies along socioeconomic lines but remains largely unaffected by economic shocks over time. This study is the first that explicitly analyses the impact of food prices on adult BMI and obesity in the Russian Federation. Using panel data from the Russia Longitudinal Monitoring Survey from 1994 to 2005, that included 10,551 urban respondents over 18 years, a reduced form weight demand function is estimated. Controlling for individual heterogeneity by a fixed-effects model, price-weight elasticities are derived. The main result is that food prices are not the essential determinants of BMI and obesity in Russia. Elasticities of BMI with respect to single food prices are low and show absolute values smaller than 0.01. However, some products like chicken meat, milk, onions and butter show significant price effects on body mass. A 20% increase in the price of chicken meat would cause a reduction in body weight of 112 g on average. In contrast to the United States, it is mainly high-income households that show significant weight reactions to food prices in Russia. Separate regressions by gender showed significant effects of milk and butter prices on male BMI and of onion prices on female BMI. The risk of being obese is even less affected by price.

한국의 닭고기 가격 결정 시스템 개선

한국의 닭고기 가격은 관행적으로 전날 생닭 가격 시세와 운반 비용을 합한 값을 육계 수율로 나누고 여기에 도축 제비용을 합하여 계산, 이를 고시하고 이 고시된 가격이 유통 당사자들의 거래 가격을 결정하는 기준이 된다. 그런데 한국의 육계는 85% 정도가 계열화 생산으로 이루어지므로 생닭 시세는 계열 주체와는 무관한 가격이다. 이러한 여건 하에서 닭고기 유통 단계별 이해 당사자의 손익을 따져 보면 생닭 가격이 낮으면 계열 주체는 적자를 보지만, 대리점 마진은 상대적으로 높아진다. 반대로 생닭 가격이 높으면 계열 주체는 흑자를 보지만, 대리점 마진은 상대적으로 낮아진다. 생닭 가격 인상폭을 그대로 소비자 가격에 반영하지 못하기 때문이다. 결국 생닭 가격과는 관련이 없는 계열 주체가 생닭 가격 등락에 따라 그들의 손익이 좌우되는 모순을 들어낸다. 따라서 닭고기 가격은 생닭 가격과는 무관하게 닭고기 생산 원가를 기준으로 하고 여기에 적정 이윤을 붙여 공장도 가격을 결정 대리점으로 넘기는 가격 결정 시스템이 정착되어야 한다. 이를 위하여 경매 가격이 없는 닭고기 시장에서 거래에 기준이 될 만한 가격을 정하고 이를 널리 고시해야 한다. 일본에서는 일본 젠노 치킨푸드사와 같이 공공적인 특징을 가진 경영체로 하여금 시장 상황을 종합적으로 판단하여 매일 닭고기 희망 가격을 발표케 하고 이를 닭고기 거래에서 참고하도록 하고 있다. 한국도 생닭 가격을 기준하여 계산한 닭고기 가격 결정 방식을 버리고 NH사로 하여금 매일 닭고기 희망 가격을 발표케 함으로써 닭고기 거래의 기준이 되게 하는 방안을 제안한다. 물론 NH사의 닭고기 시장 점유율은 5%에 지나지 않지만 그 공공성을 인정하여야 할 것이다. NH사는 농협중앙회 자회사이기 때문이다. In Korea chicken meat price is not determined in the auction markets, but it is artificially calculated using the live chicken price of one day before, transporting cost, converting rate of live chicken into carcass, and slaughtering cost. This calculated price is published through the mass media and used as the base for chicken meat transaction. By the way, since 85% of the Korean broiler industry is composed by the integrated system, the live chicken price is nothing to do with ex-factory price of chicken meat produced by the integrators. Under this pricing system, when we estimate the margin of the chicken meat through the marketing process, the margin of the integrator is fluctuated by the live chicken price of one day before, which is nothing to do with integrators; When the live chicken price is low, the margin of the integrators is low, but the margin of the selling agencies' is relatively high. On the contrast, when the live chicken price is high, the margin of the integrators is high, but the selling agencies' margin will be relatively low, because consumer's price could not be increased in parallel with increase of the live chicken price. Accordingly, the ex-factory price of chicken meat determined using the production cost of live chicken and slaughtering cost of the integrator by adding resonable margin of the integrator should be determined and published, so that it could be used for chicken meat transaction. In Japan the Zen-Noh Chicken Foods Corporation announce the ideal piece of chicken every morning, and all the transactions of the chicken meat will be determined based on this price. In Korea, it will be desirable to make bench marking from Japanese case, in other words the NH could announce the ideal price of chicken meat every morning, so that it would be the base price of chicken meat transaction. Even though the market share of the NH is less than 5%, its publicity should be accepted, since it is a subsidiary of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation of Korea.

Estimation of Optimum Fattening Period in Broilers

Dağdemir, V., Demir, and Macit, M. 2007. Estimation of optimum fattening period in broilers. J. Appl.Anim. Res., 31: 159–160. The optimum fattening period of broilers was estimated by a mathematical function using weight gain and feed intake data of a previous study conducted on 910 day-old chicks at IPC Livestock Barneveld College, The Netherlands. Forty one day fattening period has been recommended to be optimum fattening period. But calculated optimum fattening period can vary according to chicken meat and feed prices. When feed price is low and chicken meat price is high, fattening period can increase.
