Abstract
The study of the relocation of food requires the availability of data at a sub-national level. Unfortunately, there is no knowledge of intra- and inter-regional agricultural and food trade flows. The objective of this work is to estimate the fruit and vegetables trade flows of the French Occitanie region over the period 2015-2019. Using a structural gravity model the authors estimate these flows within Occitanie as well as between Occitanie and the rest of France. Their results show that although Occitanie has strong trade in fruit and vegetables with the rest of France and abroad, its local trade flows are very low. Thanks to their results the authors compute the subsidy necessary to relocate a part of the region Occitanie’s fruit and vegetables production.
