Mali's market reforms, initiated in the 1980s, have improved the production and physical availability of cereals in most markets, however, economic accessibility remains a problem for households partly because the reforms resulted in higher and more variable food prices.

520 $a Mali's market reforms, initiated in the 1980s, have improved the production and physical availability of cereals in most markets, however, economic accessibility remains a problem for households partly because the reforms resulted in higher and more variable food prices.
520 $a This study examines the impact of seasonal changes in real incomes, proxied by real expenditures, and relative prices on households' consumption patterns in Bamako, Mali's capital city, using the complete demand systems approach and household-level panel data. The panel data used in this study is from a survey undertaken in Bamako by the Direction Nationale de la Statistique et de l'Informatique (DNSI).
520 $a The study is organized in three essays. The first essay (chapter 2) presents a descriptive analysis of seasonal expenditure patterns and nutrient availability for households in Bamako. The results show that Bamako households' real expenditures vary considerably across seasons and that much of the observed seasonal variation in expenditures can be attributed to changes in non-food expenditures as food expenditures remain fairly stable across seasons. In addition, the results indicate that Bamako households maintain their calorie consumption during the year by making substantial changes in the consumption of foods that contain essential micronutrients (i.e., meat, fish, and vegetables).
520 $a In the second essay (chapter 3), the Almost Ideal Demand System is applied to a three-stage demand model for different seasons in order to estimate the impact of seasonal changes in real incomes and relative prices on households' consumption patterns in Bamako. The study finds that Bamako households' consumption patterns are responsive to changes in real incomes and relative prices in any given season and that there are seasonal changes in income and price responsiveness for all the commodities in the three demand models. In addition, the results indicate that Bamako households engage in food consumption smoothing from seasonal shocks in real incomes at the expense of non-food commodities, of non-staple foods, and through significant substitutions among and between broad commodity groups.
520 $a The third essay (chapter 4) examines the effects of seasonal changes in real incomes and relative prices on the effective demand for nutrients for Bamako households using Engel functions. The results indicate that the effective demand for nutrients is responsive to changes in real incomes and relative prices and that there is evidence of seasonal changes in income and price responsiveness. In addition, the results show that the effective demand for vitamin A and minerals is more responsive to changes in real incomes and relative prices than is the demand for calories, more specifically, calories from staples.
