An Analysis of Price Transmission along the Pomegranate Value Chain in India

This project looked at the value chain of pomegranate specifically at the prices and the costs and their physical movement from producers to consumers. It also tested for asymmetric price transmission between wholesale and retail prices of pomegranate in the cities of Pune and Ahmedabad in order to establish whether the law of one price prevails in these markets.
