The Demand for Organic and Conventional Produce in London,UK: A System Approach
Authors:Vasiliki Fourmouzi  Margarita Genius  Peter Midmore
Abstract:The majority of studies on consumer demand for organic products neglect the presence of non‐organic competitors, ignoring their effect on consumer demand for organics. This article uses a demand system which includes both organic and non‐organic fruits and vegetables, with actual (as opposed to stated) data for household purchases. Estimation of our model provides empirical evidence on the interrelationships between organic and non‐organic products, as the relevant cross‐price elasticities. Own‐price elasticities indicate that organic fruits and vegetables are more price elastic than their non‐organic counterparts, and that lower social class households with children have the most own‐price elastic demand. Cross‐price elasticities indicate relatively strong loyalty to organic products.
Keywords:Almost Ideal and censored demand systems  British households  organic fruit and vegetables  C34  D12
