Abstract

Animal welfare is a credence attribute with public good characteristics. Using a discrete choice experiment, consumers’ willingness to pay (WTP) for a concretely planned state animal welfare label is derived and compared by product group (fresh vs. processed meat) and tax scenario (no tax vs. additional animal welfare tax included in price). Consumers have a positive WTP for the state label. However, label WTP is significantly lower for processed than for fresh meat. An additional tax does not impact label WTP on average. Results provide insights for both policymakers on label implementation and farmers on further investments in animal welfare.

无论如何都要为动物福利标签买单？离散选择实验

动物福利是一种具有公共利益特征的信任属性。使用离散选择实验，推导出消费者对具体计划的国家动物福利标签的支付意愿（WTP），并按产品组（新鲜肉与加工肉）和税收情景（价格中不含税与额外动物福利税）进行比较。消费者对国家标签有积极的WTP。然而，加工肉的标签WTP明显低于鲜肉。附加税不会影响标签的平均WTP。研究结果为政策制定者和农民在动物福利方面的进一步投资提供了见解。
