Research Abstract |
This study evaluates the effects of monopolistic competition in green tea manufacturing (GTM), which is an intermediate process in the green tea food industryconsisted of tea leaves production (agriculture), green tea manufacture and beverage manufacture using a multi-regional computable general equilibrium (CGE) model. As a result, monopolistic competition in GTM in final-good production regions was found to affect the creation of conditions for improving competitiveness. Furthermore, this competition in GTM in not only final-good production regions but alsointermediates-supply regions had a greater economic effect on the whole green tea industry .
