Global End-use Demand for Cotton: A Time-Varying Parameter Model

Stephen MacDonald


 
ABSTRACT

A Cooley-Prescott model is used to estimate trends in income and price response of end-use demand for cotton in developed countries. By comparing trends in parameter variation between different groups of developed countries it is possible to develop hypotheses regarding the varying impact of product prmotion and structural change between regions.
