This appendix shows all the sources used for the analysis in Chapter 5. Again, all the sources and markets used for this chapter are listed for reasons of transparency, even though a good part of the data had been used in previous chapters already. Again, conversions used to turn capacity into weight measures are 76 kg/hl for wheat and 72 kg/hl for spelt, if not noted otherwise. Also, prices are wheat prices if not mentioned otherwise.
