Organic grains in Austrailia

Summary
In the article on abc.net, Organic food expected to increase in price as demand outstrips supply. Anna Bushell has said that there is a large shortage in organic grain all across Australia. This means that organic foods in Australia could become more expensive, and it will be a lot harder to attain because there is a shortage in organic foods, but still a huge demand for it. There is no other option than to increase the price, which will lead to consumers paying higher prices.
Quentin Kennedy (Director of an organic company) has said that the very limited supply of the organic grain could influence the market vastly, and they could even go so far to see some organic products disappear from …show more content…

Since the change in price of organic grains, did not affect the demand for it at all.
Market Equilibrium
When the demand of these organic grains increases, the demand curve shifts to the right. In addition, when the demand increases and the supply still remains constant, the price of organic grains will also increase because there is a limited quantity of the product. But consumers are still willing to pay a higher price due to the fact that there is a shortage for that product. Therefore, when organic companies are expected to increase the production of food because of a high demand and high price of the production, it will happen to fulfil the demand in the market.
Nevertheless, when the demand decreases, the demand curve will shift to the left, and so the price of the grains will fall too. This is because when there is a decrease in demand, the quantity also decreases because it could lead to a loss if there are too many products that are not being sold in the …show more content…

This may happen due to Australian organic company’s considering to import goods from other countries, just to satisfy the “wants” of the consumers, making the supply and quantity increase. Making the price fall from P1 to P2
In graph B the quantity/supply of these organic grains decreases, which causes the curve to shift left from S1 to S2. Thus causing the quantity demanded drop from P1 to P2, but also making the price increase from P1 to P2 because when there is a limited supply of something, there is always going to be a higher demand for it.
The only way to fix this issue, from my point of view, is to increase the price of the grains, and increase importation of said goods. This way the demand will be lowered slightly, even though the PED is inelastic, and the production/importation of the grains. Meaning that supply will increase vastly, and demand will decrease slightly, in attempt to reach market equilibrium.
This means that the shortage of the organic grains will have a huge effect on the short term because consumers have to pay vast amounts of money to procure these organic foods. But in the long term, It will have almost no effect at all, because farmers will have time to convert to organic grains, and increase production a

This implies that slope of PPC rises as we increase the corn quantity. Also the slope is negative as we have to ‘give up’ on poultry to get more of corn.

Despite the increase in organic buyers, the majority of people do not know how to merely interpret what the word organic even entails. The United States Department of Agriculture enforces and regulates the labeling of organic products, namely food products (cornucopia.org). In addition to the elusiveness of organic foods, organics are apt to be more expensive than conventional food; this is because instead of a huge manufacturing plant, one would be receiving their food products from a small farm (where a small amount of food is being grown and harvested). People choose to argue that organic food is far better for you than conventional or natural food; however, there are only minute differences between the two. Stephanie Watson, an executive editor of Harvard’s Women Health Watch, states:“The researchers discovered very little difference in nutritional content, aside from slightly higher phosphorous levels in many organic foods, and a higher omega-3 fatty acid content in organic milk and chicken” (Harvard.edu).

DETERMINANTS OF SUPPLY CURVE 1. COST OF PRODUCTION: An increase in the cost of inputs of production such as sugar, caffeine and colors causes an increase in the cost of production. This means that an increase in cost will cause the supplier less willing to supply at a given rate. An increase in cost resulting from shortage of ingredients or disruption of supply is one of the common reasons why the suppliers cannot supply the product at a given price thus shifting the supply curve from S1 to S2.Adverse climatic fluctuations results in low productivity of agriculture which in turn affects Coca Cola.

This is also where price mechanism takes place because any changes in demand and supply, will affect the price, and eventually balancing the demand to be equal to supply. This is the reason why consumers and producers have no control over the price, and in this situation, everyone is considered as price takers. This causes a horizontal line in the demand curve for the firm’s product(s), as can be seen in Figure 1 (b). Figure 1 There are barely any barriers to enter this market, making it easy to enter and exit according to the firm’s capabilities.
