entity_slug: agricultural_price_ceilings
entity_type: Institution
vsm_system: S5
type_rationale: Agricultural price ceilings are a socially constructed rule system
imposed by government authority to govern market behavior, making them an institutional
framework rather than a natural economic element or process.
vsm_rationale: As government-imposed maximum prices that reflect policy decisions
about protecting consumer interests versus market efficiency, agricultural price
ceilings operate at the level of ultimate authority and purpose that defines the
economic system's identity and values.
