The Impact Of Reforming Wheat Importing State-Trading Enterprises On The Quality Of Wheat Imported

Author

Listed:
  • Lavoie, Nathalie

Abstract

Recent surveys of wheat importers indicate that countries that import wheat via a state trader are less sensitive to quality issues in import decision making than countries that import wheat through private traders. This study examines conceptually and empirically the impact of the deregulation of wheat imports on the quality and source of wheat imports.
