Paper presented at the 22nd Annual International Food and Agribusiness Management Association (IFAMA) World Forum and Symposium, June 10-14, 2012, Shanghai, China. 14 pages., Authors analyzed the level of agreement of German citizens with the positions of animal rights, consumer protection, and farmer lobby groups and how this agreement or disagreement affects citizens' future meat consumption. Survey findings indicated that the intention to reduce meat consumption is only indirectly influenced by media frames generated by lobby groups. Behavioral control and subjective norm represented the most important direct influencing factors. However, the moral and economic pressure frme have a strong impact on attitude toward meat consumption.

search from AgEcon., Staff Paper No. 396, 29 pages; Adobe Acrobat PDF 192K bytes, The dynamics of cheese purchases is analyzed by estimating a series of econometric models of duration based on a
170 week household panel. Besides purchase quantity and price data, information with respect to coupon use and household demographic characteristics are used in a variety of models which build upon each other in terms of assumed distribution of interpurchase time, effect of previous purchases, role of demographic characteristics and effect of unobserved interpurchase time heterogeneity. Likelihood ratio tests clearly reject the null hypothesis that coupon use has no impact on cheese purchase timing.
"An expanded list of promotion programs administered by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture (USDA), and mostly funded by farmer groups, is channeling almost $35 million annually into advertising and promotion. While most government marketing subsidies have disappeared, the number of promotion programs and available funding have continued to grow from 11 programs in 1975 to 20 programs today, with 3 more awaiting Congressional approval. Of the 20 existing programs, 19 are funded by producers, farmers, or manufacturers." Article mentions beef, wheat, wool, raisin and peach programs.
