• “All along the curves”: Bridging the gap between comparative statics and simultaneous econometric models 

      Brækkan, Eivind Hestvik; Myrland, Øystein (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-31)
      A simultaneous econometric model of supply and demand provides estimates of own-price effects and the effect of exogenous variables on supply or demand. Most of the time economists use elasticities derived from econometric analysis in a ceteris paribus context, more seldom in a total elasticity setting (Buse in J Farm Econ 40:881–891, 1958). Perhaps even more seldom net effects of exogenous changes ...
    • The Bumpy Road of Demand Growth—An Application to Atlantic Salmon 

      Brækkan, Eivind Hestvik; Thyholdt, Sverre Braathen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014-10-16)
      We measure demand growth for all salmon-importing regions of the world using an index approach for the 2002–2011 period. Our results demonstrate that there are substantial variations in demand growth by region and over time. Russia and Brazil exhibit the highest demand growth, with average annual growth rates of approximately 20%. More established markets, such as the United States and Japan, ...

    • Global Seafood Demand Growth Differences across Regions, Income Levels, and Time 

      Kidane, Dejene Gizaw; Brækkan, Eivind Hestvik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-01)
      We used an index approach to calculate demand growth for seafood in 107 countries from 1984 to 2013. We used the results to calculate aggregate demand growth by income level, regionally, and globally. While seafood production has more than doubled since the mid-1980s, we showed that global demand for seafood has been higher than the global seafood supply. Demand growth for seafood varies across time, ...
