Description
The objectives of this paper are to assess consumers′ price premium for ecosystem- and environment-friendly rice compared to conventionally grown rice, and to investigate factors affecting that premium. In our questionnaire survey conducted in Japan, consumers′ willingness to pay for such rice was elicited using an open-ended format, after they were informed about farming practices for producing the rice. The analysis split the price premium into two aspects, ecosystem and environment, corresponding to consumers′ assessments for that style of farming. The results reveal that consumers tend to show a certain willingness to pay an ecosystem premium, which is higher than the environmental one, and demographic variables, consumers′ knowledge, time preference and risk attitudes are determinants of the individual ecosystem premium.
