Productive efficiency and firm exit in the food sector
Resources and Activities Complementarities
This paper focuses on the role of business networks, and especially on the ways in which formal and informal interactions among economic agents shape the tourist product. Local businesses are considered as agents who realize and/or create economic opportunities and develop new goals and strategies. Businesses are not viewed as independent entities, but as actors whose actions are embedded in structures of ongoing relations. As such, similar resou…
Rural tourism and visitors' expenditures for local food products
Skuras D., Dimara E. and Petrou A (2006) Rural tourism and visitors' expenditures for local food products, Regional Studies 40, 769–779. European rural development policy has supported the production of local and regionally denominated food as a means to differentiate agricultural production, and rural tourism as a means to diversify rural employment. The aim of the present work is to address tourists' decision to buy local food products while vi…

This work identifies three sets of elements of the regional resource base that contribute towards consumer-constructed regional images-namely, factors related to n…

The recent outbreak of foot and mouth disease in the UK has starkly illustrated the fragility of localized…

One of the options suggested by policy makers and adopted by farmers was the development of alternative farm enterprises (AFEs), in which farmers recombine resources on the farm and produce a new mix of products and services in order to supplement their incomes. In t…
