豚肉における需給構造の変化と価格政策の課題(農産物価格政策の再編成と需給調整,1996年度大会シンポジウム報告)

抄録

The aim of this paper is to review the causes influencing the latest demand and supply conditions and their respective problems. First, the examination was made on America, Denmark and Taiwan about international demand and supply trends and trade structure. The increase in pork imports from America are especially examined as the export offensive with Japan is growing. After the 1980's the Japanese demand and supply structure of pork has changed. As a result, first, the consumption of pork has decreased J second, the supply, in turn, has decreased; third, the import of pork has remained constant. Overseas demand and supply trends drive the Japanese pork market. Now, the Japanese meet processing companies shift both raw materials and products from their origin of supply. This has greatly influenced the Japanese reorganization of the pork market. Therefore, it's important to connect the domestic policy with effective 'price policy' border measures.
