Abstract

This article presents the estimates of the Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) for five meat groups in Malaysia. The linear version of the AIDS model is easily estimated using most of the available commercial computer software that have several desirable theoretical properties. The results show that own-price elasticities were negative statistically significant and except for chicken in the inelastic range. In general the cross-price elasticities are positive. The demand for pork chicken mutton and fish were all found to be elastic with respect to expenditure
