interregionally immobile farm labourers (sector-specific factor). We assume that the unit
labour requirement is one.
Manufacturing is a monopolistically competitive sector producing a variety of
differentiated products with increasing-return-to-scale technology and employs

3.1 Consumers ’-worker’ ’ behaviour
All individuals share the same Cobb-Douglas utility function:
U = M μ A1μ (1)
where M is a quantity index of consumption of manufactured goods and A is consumption of
the agricultural good. Therefore μ is the expenditure share of manufactured goods. The
manufacturing aggregate M, is a sub-utility function of a discrete number of varieties defined
by a constant elasticity of substitution function:
