Employing highly disaggregated data we show that export unit value is positively associated with level of economic development and the size of population. Our results indicate negative impacts of comparative advantages and trade costs on export quality upgrading. Estimations confirm the important role of income distribution in quality specialization. The income inequality increases specialization in high quality varieties for rich countries. Results are robust to alternative subsamples including vertical specialized and final agri-food products. 000204225 546__ $$aEnglish 000204225 650__ $$aAgricultural and Food Policy 000204225 650__ $$aInternational Relations/Trade 000204225 6531_ $$aexport quality 000204225 6531_ $$aincome inequality 000204225 6531_ $$avertical comparative advantage 000204225 6531_ $$aagri-food exports 000204225 6531_ $$aEuropean Union 000204225 700__ $$aFerto, Imre 000204225 700__ $$aBojnec, Stefan 000204225 773__ $$d2015 000204225 8564_ $$94aff7af7-ec60-41d0-a6ef-d697d00ac8a2$$s322509$$uhttps://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/204225/files/Imre_Ferto_AES_2015_Ferto.pdf 000204225 887__ $$ahttp://purl.umn.edu/204225 000204225 909CO $$ooai:ageconsearch.umn.edu:204225$$pGLOBAL_SET 000204225 912__ $$nSubmitted by Mallory Pagel (pagel107@umn.edu) on 2015-05-08T17:12:34Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Imre_Ferto_AES_2015_Ferto.pdf: 322509 bytes, checksum: 6a36e76edb78f598e12b4eeb0a22d51a (MD5) 000204225 912__ $$nMade available in DSpace on 2015-05-08T17:12:34Z (GMT).
