Abstract: 

The purpose of this paper is to deduce a clear picture of the producer-retail price relationship for a regional market segment of the German meat sector. The price transmission approach of Palaskas (1995) is extended by considering the wholesale level separately and implementing a cost variable that reflects slaughtering costs explicitly. The vertical price transmission analysis is based on weekly prices for the period 1995-1997. The hypothesis of perfect price transmission in both the long and short run has been rejected. While the producer-wholesale relationship is quite competitive, retailers seem to exercise market power.
