Abstract

This research studies the process of integration in the value chain of dairy production in the Dominican Republic, with the purpose of determining the participation of each of its links in terms of added value, fixing and transmission of prices. So it is investigated about the notable differences between the price paid to the rancher and the exit price to the retail market. The possible relationship between the national price and the import price is analyzed. In this order, it seeks to demonstrate that vertical and horizontal integration in the Dominican dairy subsector implies a high concentration of productive activity in corporate companies, with a high incidence in the setting of prices for dairy products. Therefore, the behavior and conditions under which prices are transmitted along the value chain and the existence of possible situations of market power are analyzed.; En esta investigación se estudia el proceso de integración en la cadena de valor de la producción lechera en República Dominicana, con el propósito de determinar la participación de cada uno de sus eslabones en términos de valor añadido, fijación y transmisión de precios.
