Abstract

Corn price differentials among country elevators often exceed norms of perfect competition. Identification of causal factors may suggest remedial policy decisions. This study indicates that the variables of seasonal adjustments, local demand and supply conditions, availability of transportation facilities, and government loan rate are significant influences in price variation.
