Popis: Price transmission (PT) in the agro-food sector has received increasing attention during the last decades, with a relevant impulse dating since Peltzman study on vertical price transmission which provided evidence of diffused PT anomalies in many agro-food sectors (Peltzman, 2000). Horizontal price transmission (HPT) received less attention and few studies have been conducted till now about this issue (Listorti 2009, Barassi and Ghoshray 2002, Thompson and Bohl 1999.). Price transmission has gained momentum also in relation to the implementation of the World Trade Organization (WTO) rules. European trade policies and, in particular, trade regulation of agricultural commodities within the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) are a specific issue in this context. This paper reports about the results of a European study conducted in 2011 about price transmission in the sugar sector as effect of the sugar sector reform of 2006.
