in the food supply chain: a comparative study of retailer-led beef quality
assurance schemes in Italy and Germany”, International Food and Agribusiness
Management Review, n. 4–2001, pp. 19-36. This article reports the findings

generic promotion for beef: the case of Quality from Bavaria – Guaranteed
Origin”, Berichte uber Landwirtschaft, vol. 80, n. 1-2002, pp. 53-84. The

the impact of generic promotion on Bavarian beef demand during the BSE

Econometric estimates of both effects are provided and a model proposed to
asess the corresponding economic welfare implications.
