Abstract
  • The primary objective of this study was to identify and investigate the underlying basis for variation in the volume of exports of Canadian chum salmon during 1954-1975 period. A number of factors thought to be of importance in the determination of the volume of exports of chum salmon were hypothesized. These factors were: chum salmon price» the price of substitute commodities, the consumer income, population, general price level in importing countries, and fluctuations in exchange rates between Canadian currency and the currencies of the importing countries. The theoretical model was reformulated in terms of empirical models of demand for Canadian chum salmon in: West Germany, Sweden, and Italy. The empirical analysis focused upon the effects on annual export volume of changes in prices of Canadian chum salmon, changes in prices of salmon from other countries, and changes in consumer income in importing countries. The results suggest that: (1) in the case of Germany and Sweden, changes in prices of salmon from other countries and changes in consumer income, (2) in Italy, changes in Canadian chum salmon prices and changes in prices of salmon from other countries have been of principal importance in the determination of volume of exports of Canadian chum salmon.
