      abstract = {The performance of the poultry industry in Indonesia is  analyzed in terms of changes in producer and consumer  welfare as a result of
public policy intended to limit the  size of production units in order to distribute growth  opportunities to smaller farms. Elasticities of supply
and  demand are estimated using the seemingly unrelated system  of equations. The hypothesis of a policy-induced structural  change,
estimated through a dummy variable accounting for a  shift in supply associated with implementation of the  policy, shows a negative impact
on the output supplied and  the welfare of producers and consumers to the tune of about  Rp 94 billion or roughly about 0.1% of national
income as  of 1983. The study suggests an important trade-off between  more equitable income distribution and economic efficiency.  © 1997
