Impact of changes in agricultural policy on the agro-food chain in Bulgaria
研究了保加利亚改革前后农业政策变化如何影响食品链各环节的价格扭曲和福利转移，发现控制消费者食品价格的政策对农民造成较大负面影响，而对消费者益处有限。
Control of consumer food prices in pre-reform Bulgaria led to large price distortions and significant welfare transfers through the food chain. Policy changes during the transition period have reduced the level of transfers and changed their pattern. At the beginning of the period, the largest transfers at farm and processing levels went via retailers to final consumers. By 1993 there were income transfers from farmers and final consumers in favour of retailers. It is shown that, since reform began, government measures to contain consumer food prices have had a large negative impact on farmers without providing much benefit to consumers.
