The aim of this study is to evaluate both qualitatively and quantitatively the value
of new information about and the information systems set for credence characteristics
of beef. Economics of information is our theoretical framework. The quantitative
approach focuses to measure the ex ante value of credence characteristics, and the
method of contingent valuation is applied for this purpose. Results indicate that
59 % of Finnish consumers are willing to pay more to get information about safety
and quality of beef products. Consumers are most concerned with diseases caused by
food of animal origin. Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are not considered as
the most hazardous risk factor in food products. However, if the beef products contain
GMOs used in animals, then consumers also start requiring additional information.
