All rights reserved. ii International Food and Agribusiness Management Review Volume 19 Issue 2, 2016 EDITOR’S NOTE Dear Colleagues, The synergy between the IFAMR, IFAMA, our industry partners, and the academic community makes for unique and rich collaborations. Two years ago, IFAMA president Thad Simons asked the IFAMR to produce a special issue on big data. Eric Jackson from the firm, Conservis, had seen a 2014 IFAMR article entitled, “Big Data and the Ag Sector: More than Lots of Numbers,” written by Prof. Steven Sonka. Eric was inspired to pull together a team of experts consisting of Prof. Michael Boehlje, Charlie Linville from Ploughman Analytics, Kenneth Zuckerberg of Rabobank and hosted a plenary session on big data at IFAMA’s conference last year in Minneapolis. Conservis sponsored a global call for papers and publication of the upcoming issue on big data featuring this crackerjack team, as editors—including Sonka. It tackles the dimensions, volume, velocity and variety of big data—pulling together ten unique contributions from around the world. It will be published and distributed in June 2016 at the IFAMA World Conference in Aarhus. If you are coming to Aarhus, make sure you attend this special Roundtable event on big data and get a copy. What a great process—as one scholar’s research publication blossomed into a great collaboration involving academia, industry, the IFAMR and IFAMA— just like our founders envisioned 26 years ago. We also have our second issue of the year ready for you. It is a thick issue of nine research manuscripts and one cool teaching case study on Brazilian ethanol. Once again the international breadth of contributions is impressive as our authors hail from five continents and ten countries. Be on the lookout for two additional special issues publishing this year: one on the global dairy trade and a second on large commercial farming enterprises. Enjoy this issue and if you plan to attend the IFAMA 2016 World conference in Aarhus, don’t forget to say hello.

Roberto Feeneya and Pablo MacClayb a Associate Professor, Center for Food and Agribusiness, Austral University, 1950 Paraguay Street, Rosario City, Argentina b Assistant Professor, Center for Food and Agribusiness, Austral University, 1950 Paraguay Street, Rosario City, Argentina Abstract This paper focuses on the question whether Argentina is capable of guaranteeing food security to its population while increasing its role as a food exporter to the rest of the world. The results of this study show that Argentina has no major problems simultaneously serving as a local food provider and exporter—from a food availability perspective. However, Argentina has problems ensuring food access to all its population. In order to improve food access while exploiting the food export opportunity, the authors propose eliminating the export tax and its substitution for a food consumption subsidy in the form of a conditional income transfer to the population under food insecurity. This would also open new opportunities for agribusiness companies selling products in local and external markets.

  • The Emergence of Emerging Markets Derivatives Exchanges
    Ensayos–Volumen XXIV, núm.2, noviembre 2005, pp.31-82 Development and volume growth of organized derivatives trade in emerging markets∗ Lourdes Treviño∗ Abstract This paper updates and extends reviews of the development of emerging market derivatives exchanges for a sample of 58 emerging countries and 83 derivatives exchanges from 1999 to 2005. Active exchanges are found in 29 emerging market countries, mostly trading financial products. Volume concentration measures suggest that smaller exchanges have increased their market shares outpacing larger ones. This is confirmed by a clear and significant reduction in the concentration index between developed and emerging market exchanges in favor of the latter. Non-US exchanges have dominated US counterparts, while trade has increasingly concentrated on financial derivatives rather than commodities. Exchange-traded derivatives showed a greater concentration than OTC markets, although these described a faster increase in concentration levels. JEL Classification: G1; F1 Keywords: Emerging markets, Derivatives exchanges, Derivatives volume. 1. Introduction At year-end 1999, just as the new millennium started, volume on U.S. futures exchanges had fallen 7%. It was due to an increase of 11% on the non-U.S. exchanges that global volume actually rose 10% that year to total 2.4 billion contracts traded. Six years later, at year-end 2005, global volume stood an astonishing 312% higher at 9.9 billion contracts traded.1 And, although price discovery and risk management is happening all over the world, the number of active exchanges has not grown. While new exchanges have developed, almost an equal number have disappeared, mainly because of consolidation.

The purpose of this report is to shed light on industry-specific issues related to the marketing and composition of infant milks worldwide. The information in this document has been obtained from sources believed reliable and in good faith.

Published in February 2018. www.changingmarkets.org Designed by Pietro Bruni - helloo.org Printed on recycled paper 2 3 vvmai Busting the myth of science - based formula Executive Summary Nestlé is the global market leader with almost one quarter market share and with the widest geographical reach for its infant milk products. The company takes particular pride in its scientific credentials, and openly states that it aims to become ‘the world’s leading nutrition, health and wellness company’. This report aims to explore the evidence behind those credentials in the context of its infant milks range and asks whether Nestlé’s commitment to science is genuine, or it is a marketing strategy. The report looks at Nestlé’s infant milks for babies under 12 months old, sold in 40 different countries, comparing the claims and the ingredients in over 70 products.
