Honey Commodity Assessment
Commodity Assessment Report: Honey
1) Which are the main non-EU27 countries in Export and Import in 2010 in terms of volume and/or value? Are there any significant changes or trends observable in the external trade figures and/or average price levels upon exportation/importation of this commodity since 2000?
Export:
In value (Euros): RUSSIAN FEDERATION (RUSSIA) HONG KONG UNITED STATES SAUDI ARABIA CROATIA SINGAPORE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES PHILIPPINES INDIA JAPAN 623410 381153 246494 159886 101262 78300 73378 50658 48076 41674 It is obvious, that the most important export partner of Austrian honey producers are russian companies. They import almost the double amount of honey measured in Euros than the 2nd greatest export partner in 2010 – Hong Kong. Furthermore it`s apperent that most of these are asian countries and there`s no african country represented.

In quantity (100 kg): RUSSIAN FEDERATION (RUSSIA) HONG KONG UNITED STATES CROATIA SAUDI ARABIA SINGAPORE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES INDIA PHILIPPINES VENEZUELA 1147 656 549 321 225 120 107 105 101 60 In this graph, it can be seen that the first 3 countries are on the same place as in terms of value, but Croatia and Saudi Arabia changed place. This means that the value of austrian honey in Saudi Arabia is much higher than in Croatia, what can be explained by the high product availability costs for Austrian honey in Saudi Arabia (transport costs,…).

Trends are here observed on the example of Russia. Just of Russia because the data from the past years of the other countries are hardly available. It`s visible that the exports in value rose steadily, while the exports in quantities declined for a short period of time in 2008/2009. The value

    Nectar Synthesis Of Honey

    Honey synthesis begins with bees collecting nectar and pollen from flowers but only nectar is used to make honey. Nectar is mostly water with dissolved sugars and the amount of sugars varies greatly and is usually 25-70%. Nectar is sucked by honeybees by inserting its proboscis into the flowers nectary and passes it through the esophagus and then to the honey crop, which is used as temporary storage and transportation.

    Day Of Honey Analysis

    The focus of this essay is to explore the different conflicts and resolutions that are undergone between racially, religiously, and culturally diverse mothers and daughters-in-law. These different conflicts and resolutions are analyzed in two literary works: Day of Honey: A Memoir of Food, Love, and War by Annia Ciezadlo, which takes place in post 9/11 America and the Middle East, as well as Love Medicine by Louise Erdrich, set in rural North Dakota from 1934 to 1984. A critical analysis reveals that the daughters-in-law of these two literary works are able to overcome their differences with their mothers-in-law through selfless acts, and forge new meaning and relationships that fulfill their lives. Annia’s relationship with her mother-in-law, Umm Hassane, begins with mutual respect and love, but transforms into a game of proofs in which the resolution takes time and hard work to achieve. In Erdrich’s novel, the relationship of Rushes Bear and her daughter-in-law, Marie, is a years-long bitter struggle in which surrender brings about a similar kind of respect and love. In this essay, through an analysis of the different conflicts and methods of reconciliation, I will argue that between the racially, religiously, and culturally diverse in-laws of these two books, respect is something that comes hard earned. These daughters-in-law are able to prove that they are worthy of their mothers-in-law’s respect through demonstrations of sacrifice.…

    Are Current Account Deficits Sustainable?

    Islamic Azad University Abstract This paper provides new evidence on the long-run relationship between exports and imports of the Iranian economy by employing bounds testing approach to level relationships. In Iran, there have been many unusual policy changes and/or external shocks to the economy; this has resulted in the occurrence of a multitude of structural breaks in macroeconomic variables. By taking these breaks into account, results of the present study reveal that there is a long-run equilibrium relationship between imports and exports over the sample period, 1960–2007. This result confirms the finding of Arize (Imports and exports in 50 countries: Tests of cointegration and structural breaks, 2002) by employing bounds tests to level relationships and suggests that current account deficits in Iran are sustainable.

    Foreign Trade in Turkmenistan

    In controlling Turkmenistan's trade sector, the main goal of government policy is to maintain and expand foreign markets for gas, fuel products, electricity, and cotton. Just prior to independence, trade with other Soviet republics accounted for 93 percent of Turkmenistan's exports and 81 percent of its imports. In the mid-1990s, the country's main trading partners (as they were in 1990) were Russia, Kazakstan, and Uzbekistan in the CIS and Germany and countries in Eastern Europe outside the CIS (see table 20, Appendix). In 1990 nearly 27 percent of exports were mineral products, 6 percent were chemical industry products, 46 percent were some form of cotton fiber, and 17 percent were processed food products.…

    Vietnam's comparative advantage in fishery products

    Traditional trade theories such as David Ricardo’s theory of comparative advantage and Heckscher-Ohlin model of factor endowments postulate that the main basis for international trade is comparative advantage. A country’s comparative advantage is reflected by its factor endowments (labour, capital, natural resources) and technology level. Since it is hard to take account of all these factors to measure comparative advantage, Balassa (1965) offers quite a simple alternative approach. Based on the fact that exports of a country are usually dominated by its comparative advantage products, he introduces an index of revealed comparative advantage of exports RCAik of country i in good k as:…

    Discuss the relative merits of import substitution versus export promotion.

    Many countries have adopted different development strategies in order to promote growth. One of these, used by the now developed economies following the Industrial Revolution, is import substitution industrialisation (ISI). This is the notion of reducing foreign dependency of a country’s economy through focusing on domestic production of goods and services. An opposing strategy is export promotion. This includes measures taken by the government to increase the quantity and variety of goods and services that are exported. There is often debate among policy-makers about the effectiveness of each as a growth and development strategy with interesting statistical evidence supporting each side. In order to achieve a conclusion, the relative merits and weaknesses of each will be discussed - albeit an informed decision depends on a number of explanatory variables.…

    Volatility of Exchange Rate and Export Growth in Pakistan

    Abstract The study empirically investigates the effect of exchange rate volatility on exports growth between Pakistan and leading trade partners. The countries are selected to determine the bilateral relationship between Pakistan and the other countries under various regional economic blocks such as SAARC, ASEAN, European, and Asia-Pacific regions. Cointegration and Error Correction techniques are used to establish the empirical relationship between exchange rate volatility and exports growth, using quarterly data from 1991:3 to 2004:2. The result indicates that the volatility of exchange rate has negative and significant effects both in the long run and short run with major trade partners namely UK and US. Similar pattern was observed in case of Australia, Bangladesh, and Singapore, where the volume of trade with Pakistan is comparatively consistent and less volatile. The relationship between exports growth and exchange rate volatility for India and Pakistan is observed only in long run perspective. However, of countries like New Zealand and Malaysia no empirical relationship is observed between export growth and exchange rate volatility.…
