Abstract: This article presents the results of a market integration analysis in the European Union market of frozen fillets of subtropical farmed species based on imports of tilapia, pangasius and Nile perch. Market integration across countries and species has been tested using Johansen cointegration in order to deal with price series which have been found to be unit root and stationary in different cases. Results show different scenarios in which the prices of the three species are integrated but with a possible exception for tilapia.
