This study developed on the “aquatic products market scenario”questionnaire design, simulating consumers selecting multiple items forpurchase in a market. Development included contingent valuation methodsusing multiple inquiry tools on a single questionnaire targeted at individualrespondents. In accord with this type of study, panel data regressionanalysis was used with econometric methods to obtain the priceconsumers are willing to pay. The accuracy and effectiveness of priceinquiry in the study is increased through repeated verification designed intothe questionnaires and empirical methods to determine each interviewee’swillingness to pay. As for the testing of the study methods used, this studyevaluates the added value on fishery products from traceable certification.As for verifying research methods, this study is aimed at evaluating theadded value to fishery products from traceability certification throughdesign of the scenario created by questionnaires and simulatingconsumers in a market scenario where several fishery product choices areavailable for purchase. The questionnaires contain several different types of fishery products with certified traceability; the ratio of increasedwillingness to pay for the traceable products is used as a price inquiry toolto evaluate the difference in price consumers are willing to pay for thetraceability. Through results from interviews directly with consumers offishery products from both modern and traditional channels from Taiwan’snorth, central and southern districts, the research showed that simulationsusing multiple inquiry tools on a single consumer as established in thisstudy is a method that can be adopted in the contingent valuation methodand the empirical method in price inquiry questionnaires for moreeffectiveness. Results from this test could be used in reference byaquaculturists and processors in promotion strategies and in productionplanning. |
