“…In this review, associations between store type and food supply, and/or community health are documented in several studies (Table 2). Less considered, however, is the impact of other vendor characteristics such as store governance, industry codes of practice and marketing, and private/public interests in shaping store operations, policies, and the resultant food supply [191,192]. Market forces (which drive factors such as store locations, supply-demand dynamics, buying power) and private sector structures may constrain the options available to local and Indigenous governments seeking to self-determine the quality and characteristics of their food environments.…”

Indigenous Peoples in high-income countries experience higher burdens of food insecurity, obesity, and diet-related health conditions compared to national averages. The objective of this systematic scoping review is to synthesize information from the published literature on the methods/approaches, findings, and scope for research and interventions on the retail food sector servicing Indigenous Peoples in high-income countries. A structured literature search in two major international databases yielded 139 relevant peer-reviewed articles from nine countries. Most research was conducted in Oceania and North America, and in rural and remote regions. Several convergent issues were identified across global regions including limited grocery store availability/access, heightened exposure to unhealthy food environments, inadequate market food supplies (i.e., high prices, limited availability, and poor quality), and common underlying structural factors including socio-economic inequality and colonialism. A list of actions that can modify the nature and structure of retailing systems to enhance the availability, accessibility, and quality of healthful foods is identified. While continuing to (re)align research with community priorities, international collaboration may foster enhanced opportunities to strengthen the evidence base for policy and practice and contribute to the amelioration of diet quality and health at the population level.

“…This is important in our case as consolidators are acting as a cooperative member. Retailers using specific marketing strategies may accelerate or slow down the inflation trend (Castellaria, Moroa, Platonib, & Sckokaia, 2018).…”

The present study is in the context of the new Model Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) Act 2003, which aims at freedom of farmers to sell their products to the large private firms and bringing reforms in the wholesale ‘cash and carry’ and retail markets in India. The most important suggestions have remarked in the Economic survey 2014–2015 and outlined that state governments should be specially persuaded by the central government to provide policy support for alternative or special markets in the large private sector. Many states, including West Bengal, accepted the proposal and had opened the market for agricultural commodities for the large private sector. In this paper, we study a model of vertical restraints in the case of small farmers in West Bengal, India considering multilayer of fixed costs and monopoly power of the small as well as large traders in the vertical structure.

“…The panel data models performed on weekly and higher-frequency data allow the decomposition of the price (index) magnitude across a set of characteristics and fixed effects (e.g. [57,58] ), which requires highly detailed datasets and a fit of the strong assumptions behind their design. In such a setting, the intervention would be a classifier rather than a cause.…”

This study summarises the main agricultural policies in Russia during 2014 and uses a sharp regression discontinuity design over time and data from the International Trade Centre to estimate the short-term effects of exchange rate liberalisation in November 2014 on import prices in Russian food markets. The sharp regression discontinuity design over time allowed an expost analysis of the short-term causal effects of the intervention on food import prices and distinguishing the effect of exchange rate liberalisation between product groups and from other interventions without using data from control regions, products and suppliers. Significant upward shifts in import prices were found for pig products, fish and cheese.
