农民在零售价格中所占的份额约为16%，相当于土耳其农产品和地区平均分销份额的84%。运输成本在零售价格中的份额仅为7%左右，而零售利润率的份额约为零售价格的77%。各区域零售价格的差异主要是由于当地工资和可变加价，而贸易投入价格的贡献相对较小。因此，各地农民价格的高度分散并没有反映在零售价格的分散中，因为零售利润的贡献很大。这些零售利润率也显示出占各地区消费者福利差异的三分之一左右，占各产品消费者福利差异的一半以上。
The farmer share of retail prices is shown to be about 16 percent, corresponding to about 84 percent of a distribution share, on average across agricultural products and regions within Turkey. The share of transportation costs in retail prices is only about 7 percent, while the share of retail margins is about 77 percent of retail prices. The dispersion of retail prices across regions is shown to be mostly due to local wages and variable markups, while the contribution of traded-input prices is relatively small. Accordingly, the high dispersion of farmer prices across locations is not reflected in the dispersion of retail prices due to the high contribution of retail margins. These retail margins are also shown to account for about one third of the consumer welfare dispersion across regions and more than half of the consumer welfare dispersion across products.
