ABSTRACT An augmented vector‐autoregressive (VAR) model relating pre‐ and post‐BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) exports of U.S. beef meat, beef offal, pork meat, and pork offal was used to test for structural changes following an outbreak of BSE in the United States in December 2003....

First developed meat import demand system, disaggegating poultry meat into two products, cooked poultry (safe)and uncooked poultry meat (less safe). The model includes, beef, pork, and other meats as well.

This paper demonstrates that EU-27 meat exports underwent structural changes following the discovery of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in the United States (2003) and highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) outbreaks in the European Union (2006). The two diseases caused short-term...

A modified Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) differential model was used to provide the first estimate of South Africa’s meat import demand system. In addition to price and scale the model also included a trend and trend-squared term to measure changes in technology and/or consumer demands...
