ASSESSING CRISES IN THE FRUITS & VEGETABLES’ MARKETS • RNM surveys are widely used to assess conjunctural crisis as it is defined by specific regulations. • A conjonctural crisis is evidenced at forwarding stage when the average current price is considered abnormally low compared to the 5 years average reference, over a period of 3 to 5 days. Vosges Matin. fr
THE MARKET INDICATOR : A CRISIS ASSESSMENT TOOL Example : cherries in 2011 36 marketed references – up to 17 quotations a day A marketed reference is a combination of a product, variety, size, origin, quality, packaging Each of these combinations is valuated at its own price Crisis assessment requires a national and representative price monitoring tool the evolution of which enables to assess and monitor a conjunctural crisis.
THE MARKET INDICATOR CAN BE AN APPROPRIATE ANSWER • • Calculation of the market indicator : each business day, a weighted average of quotes considered as representative of the prices trend of a given product is calculated ; Calculation of the week reference as an average of market indicators for the last five seasons except for the highest and the lowest values. • Comparison of the deviation between the MI of the day and the fiveyear average reference. • 25 products followed by market indicators (12 fruits, 13 vegetables)
THE CRISIS INDICATOR : AN EXAMPLE OF TOOL TO RECOGNIZE THE STATE OF CRISIS • The statement of the crisis involves two parameters whose level depends on the product - The threshold below which the price is considered "abnormally low" varies from 10 to 25% according to the perishable or storable nature of the product. - The period during which the situation is observed abnormally low prices varies between 2 -5 days depending on the duration of the campaign product • When the market indicator is below the "abnormally low“ level for a period thus defined, one considers that the product comes into conjonctural crisis • When the market indicator is back above threshold "abnormally low" for more than 3 consecutive days, the product is then considered out of the conjonctural crisis
