Abstract

Little research has quantified the impact of demographics and health information on meat demand, and no previous study has examined multiple demographic and health information variables simultaneously in a demand system, which this research does. Results of this study suggest that changes in demographic characteristics and increasing health awareness have influenced the changes in meat demand.
