Discussion: Regional Markets for Food and Interregional Competition: Implication for Southern Agriculture

Lester H. Myers

Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 1981, vol. 13, issue 1, 79-81

Abstract: A comprehensive discussion of research and interregional competition logically includes three major components: (1) a review of the overall need for the research results and a clear delineation of the differences in information requirements across types of clientele; (2) a description of the characteristics of the needed research methodology, as related to the specific clientele needs; and (3) the resulting data requirements, consistent with both the methodology and with the research objectives. Furthermore, in addressing a research-oriented audience, there should be emphasis on identifying “bottlenecks” that currently exist either in developed methodology or data bases, or both. Of course, the idealistic objectives are to stimulate the assembled audience, first, to return home with an enthusiasm for developing new and more appropriate analytical methods; and, second, to begin lobbying for better and more extensive public data resources.
