Abstract

The paper analysis the people income influence of fruits consumption, starting from the premise that the consumption of fruits increases along with income growth. The research answers the question what are the direction and the intensity of income influence on fruit consumption? For answering this question, data related to income and fruits consumption have been analyzed using the regression models. The results show that 1-unit change in the level of income leads to 0.664 units change in the level of fruits’ consumption and to 0.850 units’ change in the level of meridional and exotic fruits’ consumption. The consumption of meridional and exotic fruits reacts more evident to changes in the level of income, as compared to the consumption of fruits, in general.
