Consumption Pattern in Rural Bangladesh

Nibaran Chandra Deb

 

Abstract

Quantitative analysis of consumer behaviour is necessary for demand projections, macro-models and economic planning in general. An econometric analysis of consumer’s demand based on primary data collected from households in rural Bangladesh is attempted in this paper. Alternative hypotheses regarding demand function are tested. Effect of foreign remittances and that of the process of urbanization on the consumption pattern of the rural people of Bangladesh has also been analysed.
