  • Abstract
    This paper analyzes the price transmission effects from international markets to domestic markets for two agricultural products (meat and chicken) in IRAN. For this purpose we estimate the elasticities of substitution between imported and domestically produced goods (Armington Elasticity). Annual data(1992-2009) are analyzed with an econometric framework based on the Maximum Entropy. Result show that there is a substitution relationship between imported and domestic chicken but for meat, its vice versa.
