Abstract: Fish meal quantity demanded is inelastic with respect to its own price and that of soybean meal but elastic with respect to chick and lagged broiler prices. Quantity demanded adjusts fairly rapidly to economic stimuli and in the long-run is elastic except with respect to the price of corn.
