In this study, a meta database obtained from 45 price transmission studies published between 1978 and 2011, is used to provide an overall assessment of the potential impact of selected, study-specific attributes on estimated price transmission coefficients and in identifying asymmetric price transmission. Despite the large dispersion of estimated price transmission coefficients 2.5% - 94.2%, the mean coefficient of 32.2% is an overall assessment that the extent of price transmission in SSA is comparatively low. The predicted impacts of the study-specific attributes on the price transmission coefficients, and on the likelihood of the primary studies to report asymmetric price transmission however differ consistently across the attributes, and provide in general evidence on the critical role such attributes play in determining price transmission results and their implications for policy formulation. Therefore, future research on price transmission should carefully account for the impact of study-specific attributes in their results. 000134754 546__ $$aEnglish 000134754 650__ $$aAgribusiness 000134754 6531_ $$ameta-analysis 000134754 6531_ $$aPrice transmission 000134754 6531_ $$aasymmetry 000134754 6531_ $$aSub-Saharan Africa 000134754 700__ $$aAmikuzuno, Joseph 000134754 700__ $$aOgundari, Kolawole 000134754 773__ $$d2012 000134754 8564_ $$928263e65-c29b-4e13-b170-ba47e63a4cf0$$s243174$$uhttps://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/134754/files/Joseph_Amikuzuno_AES2012_Conference_Amikuzuno_Ogundari.pdf 000134754 887__ $$ahttp://purl.umn.edu/134754 000134754 909CO $$ooai:ageconsearch.umn.edu:134754$$pGLOBAL_SET 000134754 912__ $$nSubmitted by Kirsten Pagel (pagel076@umn.edu) on 2012-09-27T17:19:18Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Joseph_Amikuzuno_AES2012_Conference_Amikuzuno_Ogundari.pdf: 243174 bytes, checksum: ac95771a3b622d871fb9b60675e8f54d (MD5) 000134754 912__ $$nMade available in DSpace on 2012-09-27T17:19:21Z (GMT).
