      abstract = {Governments in developing countries have tended to focus  on the production end of their food systems. However, there  is increasing recognition of the need to understand the  nature of post-harvest marketing and consumers' behaviour  in order to develop effective policies for food marketing  initiatives and nutrition security. 

This paper presents  an examination of the available research into consumer  preferences in the South Pacific region and the contexts in  which the research was conducted. Of particular interest is  the methods employed to obtain consumer preferences .  Consideration is given to the benefits of this type of  research in the Pacific and to the issues which might arise  in identifying a conceptual framework and methodology.},
