Got Milk? Stockholm Municipality’s Own- and Cross-Price Elasticities for Organic and Conventional Milk Procurement

Abstract
This thesis investigates Stockholm Municipality’s own-price elasticity for organic milk procurement and cross-price elasticity between organic and conventional milk procurement during 2008-2013. Using log-linear specifications with fixed effects, organic milk was found in most specifications to be relatively elastic, while the cross-price elasticity between organic and conventional milk suggests the two products are substitutes. The estimation strategy relies on the differences in milk consumption within and between organic and conventional product pairs.
