Abstract
The purpose of this section is to review pricing mechanisms in agriculture and food. We started by constructing a taxonomy and system of classification for pricing mechanisms that is rooted in economic theory. This framework was applied to 26 pricing mechanisms observed from the following product categories:
· Beef
· Hogs
· Grains and oilseeds
· Dairy
· Poultry and Eggs
· Processed Food and Horticulture
