Outline of Final Research Achievements

We studied market institutions regarding rice trade in three African countries namely Madagascar, Ghana, and Nigeria, particularly focusing on how the quality of rice is reflected in its price. The main feature of this study is the analyses from the viewpoint of comparative economic development, taking the development of rice market after the Meiji era in Japan and rice market in contemporary Asian countries for comparison. It was confirmed that observable quality such as broken rice, color, and contamination affects rice price in the three African countries. However, since no standard method to describe rice quality has been established, it is difficult to do long-distance trade without seeing the actual rice. On the other hand, in Japan the realization of long-distance trade of rice attributed to standardized rice inspection system.
