Abstract: The objective of this study was to examine the economic impact of NAFTA on US producers of pecans. An econometric method was used to develop supply and demand functions for the United States and an excess supply function for Mexico. The equations were used to measure gains for US consumers and losses for US pecan producers and the government. The increase in Mexican real disposable national income necessary to offset losses to US pecan producers in the aftermath of NAFTA was also measured. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
