Prices and Their Effects on Meat Production and Meat Market in Poland
Abstract
The paper dwells on general problems concerning the influence of prices on the
conditions of development in the livestock and meat market. This influence has
been analyzed from the following aspects: 1) the size of production and livestock
supplies, 2) the effect of retail prices on demand in the meat market, 3) the
shaping of the sum of prices in the meat market at a given supply of livestock,
4) the relations existing between the livestock prices and meat prices and the need
of taking them into consideration in the process of regulating the conditions of
market equilibrium.
The inference which can be drawn from the study may be expressed as follows:
albeit the influence of prices on the volume of production and the size of
livestock supplies is quite substantial, it does not constitute a decisive factor.
Moreover this influence is not exclusively governed by changes in prices but
depends also on conditions of development, especially in the fodder sphere and
in the directions of livestock production.
What concerns the retail meat prices, they can be taken advantage of in the
process of shaping the demand on the meat market. The field of maneouvre in
that respect is, however, strictly limited because of a relatively small sensibility of
demand on price changes and the prevailing character of meat market and its
dimensions. In this situation a specific change in prices results in deep and
manifold consequences.
In the meat processing sphere, there exists a possibility of changing the list
of meat products from a given supply of livestock, and thus the possibility of
changing the sum of prices of said products, which in turn can help the processes of regulating the partial equilibria as well as the general market" equilibrium.
The feasibility of undertaking such changes is, however, conditioned by concrete
market situation.
Much attention has been given to the mutual relations existing between the
level of livestock prices and meat prices. The links between those levels must
be taken into account in order to ensure a proper functioning of price mechanism.
The strength of said links depends on the structure of meat market and on the
possibility of exerting an influence on the size of supply by means of manipulating
with the stocks and synchronizing the meat turnover in foreign trade. The shaping
of conditions which weaken the levels of said prices gives greater freedom in
separating their respective movements and thus a greater possibility of influencing
— by means of prices — the conditions of market equilibrium.
