| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research is to show degrees of imperfect competition and price transmission in the long marketing processes (food system) from the procurement of agricultural profucts overseas to domestic food consumption using the analytical methods of economics and statistics. Among the main findings of this research, we found that the degree of imperfect competition of the Japanese food industry has been lowered since the early 2000s. We also drew the brand-level degrees of imperfect competition of beer and beer-taste beverages (including non-alcoholic beers) in Japan. By employing the simulation analyses of price transmission in the food system, we quantitatively analyzed the effects of the change in future trade environments on the Japanese economy including the agriculture and food industries.
