An Analysis Of Intraseasonal Apple Price Movements

Excerpt from An Analysis of Intraseasonal Apple Price Movements Some of the more important policy questions in apple marketing cannot be answered on the basis of an analysis of season average prices. Among these questions are: (1) What is the most profitable allocation of apples between fresh and processing outlets? (2) Would a diversion program between alternative outlets be feasible for apple producers? (3) What part of the apple crop should be stored at harvest, and what is the optimum rate of movement from storage? In studying these problems, information is needed about demand conditions during various periods of the apple marketing season. This paper gives results of a model designed to provide this information. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
