Abstract: The study uses a Transcendental logarithmic (TL) function to estimate Japanese import demand for varieties of wheat. It concludes that their Food Agency fills annual quotes without regard for the prices of competing varieties. However, price differentials have a small but measurable effect upon the monthly scheduling of import purchases.
