On Forecasting Commodity Prices by the Balance Sheet Approach

Andrew W. Ashby

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1964, vol. 46, issue 3, 633-643

Abstract: Although a number of economists with producer organisations, business firms and government departments are concerned with forecasting commodity prices, there is virtually no published literature on how to forecast price changes from one season to another for commodities which are traded on the world market. This article describes a method which has been in use for several years in one firm and discusses the problems involved.
