Abstract: In 2008, public authorities in Algeria created the "Syrpalac" mechanism in order to reduce price fluctuation of consumption potatoes. The mechanism calls private storage operators for the constitution of the stocks of regulation. It is a voluntary policy, whose success is depending on the effective implication of these storage operators. Our research consists on identifying factors that determine the implication of the storage operators to Syrpalac. Our results show that these factors are the perception of financial incentive, the profit margin, the diversification of the storage operators, the production area, the volumes and the mode of storage. They suggest that policy improvements are possible, which will help the regulatory authority.
