From your principal of Microeconomics class, recall the definition of price of elasticity of demand:

= percentage change in quantity/percentage change in price

We can use price elasticities to determine whether markets are in fact perfectly competitive (or at least close to perfectly competitive). The following table summarizes estimated price elasticities for US farmers.

Crop	Numbers of farms	Individual farm's elasticity of demand
Apples	41,187	-8,649
Sweet Cherries	14,078	-10,840
Grapes	24,982	-3,997
Peaches	23,121	-5,813
Pears	13,244	-21,711
Plums/prunes	11,186	-7,047
Snap bears	12,260	-11,544
Sweet corn	29,260	-31,353
Cucumber	9,935	-5,668
Lettuce	2,452	-809
Dry onions	3,516	-2,074
Peas	8,204	-5,579
Tomatoes	17,290	-2,766

Does this data support the hypothesis that agriculture markets are (close to) perfectly competitive? Explain your answer.
