Abstract

This paper analyses the uptake of a voluntary green public procurement policy in Sweden. The policy, decided in 2006, stated a national goal for the public sector to increase its share of organic food purchases to 25% by 2010. The overall purpose was to increase organic farming. Municipalities, which are highly independent authorities with self-determination, were encouraged to formulate own political goals. Based on survey data on organic food purchases for the period 2003–2016, supplemented with data on municipality characteristics, we analyse the determinants of the local uptake of the national policy, accounting for potential selection bias. The main finding is that local political goals are set and that these have in turn, a significant and positive effect on the share of organic food purchases. This suggests that there is an uptake of the voluntary policy. Also, we find that the increase in expenditures per capita devoted to organic food is quite substantial following the adoption of a local policy.

绿色公共采购:有机食品政策采纳的实证分析
本文分析了瑞典自愿绿色公共采购政策的实施情况。2006年制定的这项政策提出了一个国家目标,要求公共部门到2010年将有机食品的采购份额提高到25%。总的目的是促进有机农业。市政当局是高度独立的自决当局,鼓励它们制订自己的政治目标。基于2003-2016年期间有机食品采购的调查数据,并辅以城市特征数据,我们分析了地方对国家政策吸收的决定因素,并考虑了潜在的选择偏差。研究的主要发现是,当地的政治目标是确定的,而这些目标反过来又对有机食品的购买份额产生了重大而积极的影响。这表明,自愿政策得到了采纳。此外,我们发现,在采用地方政策后,人均有机食品支出的增加相当可观。
