search from AgEcon., American Agricultural Economics Association Annual Meeting, August 2-5, 1998, Salt Lake City, Utah. 1998 18 p., To justify public subsidies for export promotion, export markets must fail to provide incentives for exporters to recognize the benefits of spillover or long-term benefits of promotion. This paper tests for these failures in dynamic dual model for horticultural export supply. Results show significant spillovers and dynamic effects.

9 pages, The present study was conducted in Faisalabad at Social Sciences Research Institute, Pakistan
Agricultural Reseaerch Council, Ayub Agricultural Research Institute, Faisalabad, Pakistan
during 2019. Countries wise time series data of exported fruits and vegetables were taken
from AMIS for finding instability of commodities and countries. Current study focused on the
compound annual growth rates of production, export quantity and value of mostly exported
fruits and vegetables. Growth trends of selected commodities were executed by using semitrend growth model. Coefficient of variation technique was used to find out instability of specific
commodity for specific country/market. Selected exported vegetables (potato, tomato, onion
and garlic) indicated instability results for Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Qatar and Indonesia among
given markets and within the given period. Among fruits kinnow export shared 24.96, mango
export results showed 22.08 percent share in total fruits export followed by 13.55 percent share
of orange and 8.6 percent export share of dates dried in total export from Pakistan. Results
observed for instability of exports to countries, minimum value of coefficient of variation (24.34
percent) was recorded for Bahrein market for kinnow export and Bahrein market was stable
among given markets. Similarly, mango results showed that export of mango to Germany market
was stable among given markets and within the given period. Export of orange to Saudi Arabia
market and export of dates to Bangladesh market was stable among given markets within the
given period of time. Finally, in order to lessen the instability, it can be proposed that Pakistan
ought to take steps to boost the exports of primary commodity and value added products to raise
revenue profitable.
