Title

Supply Response To Technological Change And Regulation: The Case Of Mechanically Deboned Poultry.

Abstract

With widespread adoption of the mechanical deboning technique, millions of additional pounds of poultry may be recovered and re-allocated from lower-valued inedible byproduct uses to high-valued edible uses. Determinants of the supply response to the technology by poultry processors are analyzed and parameters of a two-equation supply response model are estimated. Relevant supply elasticities are calculated and the model is used to analyze the possible impact of regulations affecting the production and use of mechanically deboned poultry.-from Authors
