      abstract = {This paper examines the cointegration of grain market  prices in Northern Ethiopia. Results are based on  bi-monthly retail price data on wheat and teff collected  from six markets in the Tigray region of Northern Ethiopia.  The data has 55 observations for each of the two crops in  each of the six markets ranging over a period of May 2006  to October 2008. Johansen’s cointegration test reveals that  most markets are cointegrated in wheat and teff retail  prices. There is an indication that retail prices at  Abi-Adi, a town located relatively farther away from the  main asphalt road, is less integrated to other markets.  This implies that infrastructural development is crucial  for spatial market integration through market information  transmission and physical transfer of goods from one market  to another.},
