Pear Import Demand: Three Markets for U.S. Fresh Pears

Author

  • Sparks, Amy L.

Abstract

This report presents the results of an econometric analysis of two U.S. overseas pear markets, Canada and Sweden, and explores competition among the major importers into these markets. The results indicate that the United States will increase its pear exports to Canada if Canada expands its pear imports, and U.S. import share will increase slightly in Sweden. Mexico is a third primary market for U.S. pears but involves little competition, since the United States is virtually Mexico's only supplier
