contents The core-periphery model with transport costs in differentiated agriculture is extended to continuous space. A homogeneous stationary solution is unstable but exhibits redispersion that it is stabilized by sufficiently low manufacturing transport costs or sufficiently strong preference for manufacturing variety. It is numerically observed that a solution starting from around the unstable homogeneous solution eventually forms a spike-like agglomeration. Furthermore, the redispersion also appears in the sense that the number of the spikes goes from decreasing to increasing as the manufacturing transport costs decrease. It is also observed that lower agricultural transport costs and stronger preference for agricultural variety promote agglomeration.
