Abstract: This paper develops a composite price expectation model which provides ehdogenous weights and testing of alternative expectation hypotheses within the model being estimated. Empirical results for the Northeastern U.S. fresh tomato market indicate that the model is consistent with data and that it generates more accurate ex ante forecasts.
