contents This paper provides answers to several open problems about equational theories of idempotent semifields. In particular, it is proved that (i) no equational theory of a non-trivial class of idempotent semifields has a finite basis; (ii) there are continuum-many equational theories of classes of idempotent semifields; and (iii) the equational theory of the class of idempotent semifields is co-NP-complete.
