Abstract:

This paper analyzed the China apple importing trade，and then estimated the Armington substitution elasticity of four major apple importing countries of China，using panel data regression models.The estimation results indicated that the overall substitution elasticity of the four importing countries was 1.57.The Armington substitution elasticity of Chile and America was negative，with respectively -9.09 and -2.51；while the Armington substitution elasticity of New Zealand and Japan was positive，with respectively 0.93 and 1.84.The paper found that apple from Chile and America had complementary relationship with domestic apple，while apple from New Zealand and Japan had substitutive relationship with domestic apple.
