Abstract/Description: | The paper has applied time series model to investigate the wholesale and retail price market integration of major pulses (tur, gram, moong, urad, masoor) in five major regions namely north zone (NZ), south zone (SZ), east zone (EZ), west zone (WZ) and north east zone (NEZ) in the country based on their volume of production. The study has shown that there exists a strong cointegration among the wholesale as well as retail prices of these major pulses, although the cointegration varies. In addition to the horizontal cointegration, the vertical cointegration between the wholesale and retail prices of different pulses has also been investigated. Different causal relationships have been found between wholesale and retail prices in these five zones. The application of vector error correction model (VECM) has indicated that all the error correction terms (ECTs) are negative and most of these terms are statistically significant, implying that the system once in dis-equilibrium tries to come back to the equilibrium situation. The study has also used Impulse response analysis which shows that change in wholesale prices of these five pulses in one zone will cause change in wholesale prices in other zones. The paper has concluded that price signals are transmitted across regions indicating that price changes in one zone are consistently related to price changes in other zones and are able to influence the prices in other zones. However, the direction and intensity of price changes may be affected by the dynamic linkages between the demand and supply of pulses. The study has provided an interesting insight for policy makers, and for contributing to improve the information precision to predict the price movements used by marketing operators for their strategies and by policy makers for designing the suitable marketing strategies to bring more efficiency across the markets. |
