Abstract

The analysis identified factors affecting market participants' attitudes toward selected market alternatives for US shelled peanuts using a mirrorimage survey design and multivariate probit. Agreement or disagreement among shellers, among processors, and between shellers and processors is ascertained via matching patterns of mirror-image profiles. Results indicate that the computerized cash market might hold promise as a starting point in the implementation of a centralized market for shelled peanuts with or without the government program in effect.
