Endogenous Pricing Modes in Markets for Inputs

Chapter 18 in Does Economic Space Matter?, 1993, pp 352-373 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Today in North America commercial dairies typically transport raw milk from the dairy farmers to their processing plants, while fifty years ago it was the dairy farmers who transported the raw milk. In the salmon fishery in the Pacific north-west, fishers sometimes transport their catch to the fish processor, and processors sometimes buy the fish on the fishing grounds, transporting the catch to their own processing plants. On the Canadian prairies, wheat farmers usually transport the wheat they grow to the grain elevator. In most labour markets, the seller accepts responsibility for getting to work, but this is not universally the case; harvest labour, for example, is often transported to the work site by the buyer. And in some labour markets the responsibility is shared — the company provides the car and the petrol, and the employee the time needed to get to and from work.
