In this study, we look at teff at the end the value chain, i.e. consumption of teff
Based on national representative data, we document the major patterns in food and teff consumption in Ethiopia
We further econometrically study the link of incomes with teff consumption
1. Introduction
![Page 4: Patterns and determinants of teff consumption in ethiopia](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022082310/554ea554b4c905fb7c8b494c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• We use annual household expenditure data on all food and non-food items, collected roughly every five-year by the CSA, called HICEs and HCEs (for 2010).
• Survey years: 1995, 2000 ,2005 and 2010
• The HICEs is a unique dataset: nationally representative! • Sample size: ranges from 11,957 (1995) to 27,835 (2010)
• Increasing number of items considered over the years: 222 items (1995 survey) and 1186 items (2010 survey)
We acknowledge CSA for providing us the data
2. Data and methodology
![Page 5: Patterns and determinants of teff consumption in ethiopia](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022082310/554ea554b4c905fb7c8b494c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
To do so, we use annual household expenditure data on all food and non-food items
Annual expenditures: the total Birr value of expenditure spent or used for all possible household consumables & converted to an annual basis.
Expenditures often used as proxy for “income” and also useful to understand consumption patterns among income groups of households, across space and time.

• As income of consumers change, their food consumption basked changes
• This is measured by the income elasticity: “An % increase of income leads to an % increase of consumption of a particular food”
• These estimates tell us what will happen to the food demand when countries and people become richer
• Estimates of these differences are done by comparing consumption patterns of different wealth groups in the HICES data

1/ Income elasticity for most crops positive2/ Income elasticity for teff biggest of all cereals; teff demand is to increase faster than demand for other cereals with income growth

Conclusions and policy implication
•We present stylized facts on teff consumption based on national household survey:
1. Teff most important cereal in food expenditures
2. Urban consumption much higher than rural consumption
3. Teff consumption is increasing over time
![Page 18: Patterns and determinants of teff consumption in ethiopia](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022082310/554ea554b4c905fb7c8b494c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Conclusion and policy implication (cont.) 4. White teff consumption has increased over time compared to red
and mixed teff consumption. In aggregate terms the three verities have equal importance in 2010.
5. Teff is a major contributor to calories in urban area.
6. We find large income elasticity of teff; as incomes grow, Ethiopian consumer will increasingly spend on teff. This indicates the importance of increasing investments in teff as its importance will grow over time
7. Further need to increase production to satisfy increasing demand in foreign markets - huge opportunity in international market

US produced teff on sale at Trader Joe’s Supermarket in New York City (1 LB or 454g for $6.29).
Teff – already in global supermarkets!
At this price , a quintal of teff would sale a whopping 26,000 ETB!!
