Outline of Final Research Achievements

Our research aims to identify the efficacy of meat self-sufficiency in alleviating price transmissions between international and domestic markets with time-series econometric models. With collaborators, I found that meat autarky effectively mitigates price spillovers (published in sustainability), and I also discovered that it could potentially buffer shocks from global markets (published in Humanities and Social Sciences Communications). To disseminate the findings, I wrote an article on the relationship between food self-sufficiency and food security for Research Outreach. Currently, a piece of research that focuses on the Japanese beef market is under review at the Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

これまでの研究では食料に関する自給率の効果の分析はかなり限定的であった。穀物自給率に関しては私自身の研究を含め、多少の数量的分析は存在したが、食肉に関する研究はほぼ皆無と言っても過言ではなかった。そこで、食肉の自給率が高いことが国内市場に安定をもたらすかどうかを分析する事が本研究の意義である。これにより、日本やその他の国々で自国の食肉市場を保護するためにどのような対策をとるべきかのヒントになるだろう。
