Exchange Rate Risk and U.S. Agricultural Trade Flows

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1990, vol. 72, issue 3, 694-700

Abstract: This paper analyzes the effect of exchange rate risk on U.S. agricultural trade flows. A model which incorporates exchange rate risk is applied to ten countries. While exchange rate risk was not significant in the seven developed markets, results indicate that the exchange rate variable adversely affected U.S. agricultural exports to the three developing countries used in the analysis. These findings underscore the importance of exchange rate risk in developing countries trading behavior. Issues such as establishment of well-developed financial and commodity markets in developing countries must be addressed in future research.
