ABSTRACT

Vertical price transmission between wheat and flour markets in Kazakhstan has been analyzed using monthly data during the period 2000-2010. We found evidence of global market price spikes and government policies as a response leading to the divergence of prices across regions ofKazakhstan, which is especially notable in the flour market. Strikingly, flour prices are significantly higher in some wheat producing regions.
