dc.description.abstract This study analyses market integration and price transmission in selected agricultural markets in Ghana. The Johansen co-integration procedure, Granger Causality test and autoregressive distributed lag model were applied to analyse the data. The results revealed that the price series were integrated of order one, however, we did not find evidence of co- integration of the price series. Moreover, the market studied did not Granger Cause one another. Conclusively, the results suggest the existence of poor price transmission and poorly integrated cassava markets. We therefore suggest that policy makers take a critical look at the factors that influence spatial price transmission en_US
