Price transmission and asymmetric adjustment in the Spanish dairy sector

  • Teresa Serra
  • Barry Goodwin

Abstract

Asymmetric threshold vector error correction models are applied to monthly price data to analyse price relationships and patterns of transmission among farm and retail markets for a variety of dairy products in Spain. The results suggest that asymmetries affect a conspicuous part of the raw milk processed in Spain. Implications for the organizational structure of Spanish dairy markets are offered.
