A Note On The Pig Cycle In Australia

Author

Listed:
  • Griffith, Garry R.

Abstract

Spectral analysis is used to test hypotheses relating to regular four-year cycles in the Australian pig industry. The data point to the existence of annual cycles in production, slaughterings and prices, but four-year cycles are only evident in pig prices. Relationships between these series are also examined by cross-spectral analysis
