Table 1-11 Expenditure Elasticity in Rice and Wheat consumption

(1998)

Note： R and W denote rice and wheat. Elasticity is obtained by the following equation. log (Per-capita consumption of rice and wheat) = a + b log (Per-capita expenditure). Since data on incomes is not available, expenditures substitutes for the former.

Source： The same as for Figure 2-13.
