China's feed grain market: development and prospects

Article Abstract:

The future growth of demand for grains in China is predicted to be propelled mostly by the growth of feed grain demand. Continued population growth and high incomes are expected to lead to a sustained increase in consumption of animal products, while the scarcity of land and water resources will restrict expansion in grain production, leading to growing pressure for increasing grain imports. Feed grain and animal product markets and policy options in China were assessed. Findings showed that the need for feed grains will be determined by the quantity of animal products produced, the methods employed, the price of feed sources, the price of animal products and government policy.

Marketing identity preserved grain products: the case of American White Wheat Producers Association

Article Abstract:

The use of specialty grains to enhance the quality of crops will continue to grow. The trend towards the use of such grains will stimulate integration among agricultural marketing firms and farms. The most significant factor that will hinder the entry of more integrated production-marketing firms will most likely be product differentiation. Existing producers of specialty grains can differentiate their products by exercising their property rights.

Market efficiency of US grain markets: application of cointegration tests

Article Abstract:

Bivariate and multivariate Johansen cointegration tests were employed to analyze the market efficiency hypothesis (EMH) and to determine if the commodity spot markets of grain are cross-sectionally efficient. Results support the EMH and show that it may not be possible to profit from speculating on US grain markets. The daily cash prices of grains, such as corn, oats, wheat, and soybeans, were all shown to be nonstationary.
