agriTradeRisk
An integrated and reproducible workflow for analysing the competitiveness and risk of agricultural and horticultural exports. It measures destination and product concentration (Herfindahl-Hirschman, entropy and equivalent-number indices), revealed comparative advantage (Balassa, 1965) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9957.1965.tb00050.x> and its symmetric form, relative unit values, and constant market share decomposition of export growth. It tests vertical price transmission between export and domestic prices with Engle-Granger cointegration (Engle and Granger, 1987) <doi:10.2307/1913236> using MacKinnon (2010) critical values and symmetric or asymmetric error correction models. It quantifies exchange-rate exposure of a multi-currency export portfolio (volatility, diversification ratio, risk contributions and value at risk), screens destination markets with composite entry-risk scores, and identifies risk-efficient destination mixes by mean-variance portfolio optimisation (Markowitz, 1952) <doi:10.2307/2975974>. Simulated example data for Indian mango, grape, pomegranate and processed horticultural exports illustrate the workflow.
