Derived demand for disaggregated cheese products imported into Japan
Article Abstract:
The derived demand for imported cheese products into Japan, when cheese import data are disaggregated by specific cheese group and by source country of production, is estimated. It is found that the derived demands for the U.S. fresh, grated, and processed cheese products are perfectly inelastic, and it is thus suggested that competition in these segments be based upon differences in product characteristics.
