A comparative analysis of export promotion programs for US wheat and red meats
Article Abstract:
Federal government has financed wheat and red meat exports by almost $100 million between 1986 and 1991. Red meat exports have registered more than $2 billion in growth, while wheat recorded less than $1 billion. The difference is also observed in each product's employment market. Although cooperators such as the US Meat Export Federation and the US Wheat Associates make quality as the basis for promotions, marketing strategies indicated different reactions for value-added products and unfinished bulk commodities.

Impact of International Coffee Agreement abandonment on Indonesian coffee prices
Article Abstract:
A model that examines the effect of the International Coffee Agreement (ICA) on coffee prices in Indonesia is constructed using 967 sales transactions for Robusta coffee from 1987 to 1991. Hedonic price analysis was adopted to determine the effect of a product's characteristics on its price. Abandonment of the ICA resulted in a decrease in premiums for high grade beans. Premiums of high grade beans were higher than low grade beans during the term of the agreement.
