The Impact of Coffee Market Reforms on Producer Prices and Price Transmission (November 5, 2003)
Coffee growers in developing countries have historically received a very small share of the export price of coffee due to heavy government intervention and regulation of domestic markets.
The paper attached below evaluates the impact of coffee sector reforms during late 1980s and early 1990s in the main coffee-producing countries on coffee growers. It shows that post-liberalization, transmission of world prices to producers is generally faster, and that their share of the price received tend to be higher. However, there is some evidence of asymmetries in the way positive and negative world price changes are transmitted to domestic markets. The discussion also highlights the importance of considering risk increases due to higher price volatility after the coffe price crash.
Ekaterina Krivonos, the author of the paper, presented her findings at a Brown Bag Lunch in November of 2003.
