Price Interdependence of Agricultural Commodities from Ukraine and World Markets

Анотація

The objective of the paper is to present the price interdependencies between agricultural commodity products from Ukraine (both export and non-export oriented) and other commodities whose prices are shaped on world markets, with a special focus on the role of their volatility. The research demonstrates a tight connection between the global prices of crude oil and prices of Ukrainian corn and wheat. Additionally, the volatility of world prices of agricultural commodities influenced the Ukrainian national market and had significant impact on domestic price declines. At the same time, the mechanisms for pricing non-export related agricultural commodities are formed mostly under the influence of factors from the domestic market. It is argued that a low interdependency between non-export oriented agricultural commodities and world markets stipulates the social stability of Ukraine's population. (original abstract)
