Modeling Price Spread for Salmon Across Different Monetary Markets
Much attention has been given to how to model the price spread since Gardner's important contribution was published in the mid seventies. Most farm-retail price spread studies are applied on agriculture products restricted to domestic trade only. Globalization and weaker trade barriers allow pr...
