In this paper, we model the tradeoff between regional oligopsony power
and cost efficiency resulting from consolidation in a food processing
industry. The model can be used to calculate the cost reductions necessary to
offset the anticompetitive effects of market power and to compare them to
actual cost savings achieved through plant scale or multiplant operating
economies. For an application, we choose the beef packing industry. For this
case, we find that the estimated cost savings necessary to neutralize the
anticompetitive effects of consolidation in beef packing are about half the
actual cost savings from scale economies.
