Abstract: An import allocation model was used to investigate import demand for US fresh oranges in Canada, the European Community (EC), Singapore, and Hong Kong. The results indicate that the US import share will increase significantly in Singapore and a fair amount in Canada and Hong Kong as these markets grow. The income elasticity in the EC for US oranges is statistically insignificant. Price elasticities indicate that a negative relationship exists between the price of US oranges and demand in all markets considered.
