Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Uruguay Round Agreement on Agriculture made significant progress on establishing new rules governing the operation of the sector and international trade in agricultural goods. The initial reforms, however, did not bring about the expected substantial improvement in global competition and market access, and agriculture has therefore remained a key area of negotiations in the WTO. Obligations for future liberalisation of the rice sector are likely to restrict the scope for the adoption of appropriate policy instruments by governments. This can affect their ability to safeguard livelihoods and the food security of their rice-dependent populations and countries. This issue of Trade Hot Topics summarises the findings of a major research study from the Commonwealth Secretariat that explores the likely consequences of global rice and agricultural trade liberalisation in four South Asian countries: Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

Download or read book Towards Free Trade in Agriculture written by Kirit S. Parikh and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agriculture seems to be a difficult sector to manage for most governments. Developing countries face tough dilemmas in deciding on appropriate price poli eies to stimulate food production and maintain stable, preferably low, prices for poor consumers. Governments in developed countries face similar difficult deci sions. They are called upon to give income guarantees to farmers whose incomes are unstable and relatively low when compared to those in the nonagricultural sector. These guarantees often lead to ever-increasing budgetary outlays and unwanted agricultural surpluses. High prices make new investments and the application of new technologies more attractive than world prices warrant, and a process is set in motion where technological innovation attains amomenturn of its own, in turn requiring price policies that maintain their rates of return. Surpluses are disposed of with subsidies in domestic markets or in the international market. Price competition reduces the market share of other exporters, who may be efficient producers, unless they are willing to engage in subsidy competition. This lowers export earnings and farm incomes or depletes the public resources of developing countries that export competing products. Retaliatory measures have led to frictions and further distortions of world prices. Every so orten the major agricultural exporters - the USA, the EC, Aus tralia, or Canada - accuse one another of unfair intervention. Though they have agreed to discuss agricultural trade liberalization under GATT negotiations, if anything, the expenditure on farm support has continued to increase in both the EC and the USA.

Book Synopsis Agricultural Trade and Food Security by : Kevin Watkins
Download or read book Agricultural Trade and Food Security written by Kevin Watkins and published by Oxfam. This book was released on 1995 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does a $16,000 subsidy per farmer in the USA translate into food insecurity for households in Cagayan Valley in the Philippines? How does a few percentage points rise in grain demand in South Korea drive up meat prices in the wet market of Valencia in Cotabato in the Philippines? This book takes us through the interaction of international trade realities and national policies, and how they impact on the survival strategies of even remote households and villages. Knowing and understanding such links raise larger and pressing considerations for development work in many communities. The need for a wider range of tools of analysis and intervention, especially in the field of economics and in macroeconomic policy-making is upon us. This book will attempt to contribute to filling that need, and, hopefully contribute also to efforts at bringing micro development concerns into macro development programmes and policies.

Book Synopsis Food Fights over Free Trade by : Christina L. Davis
Download or read book Food Fights over Free Trade written by Christina L. Davis and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-10-23 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This detailed account of the politics of opening agricultural markets explains how the institutional context of international negotiations alters the balance of interests at the domestic level to favor trade liberalization despite opposition from powerful farm groups. Historically, agriculture stands out as a sector in which countries stubbornly defend domestic programs, and agricultural issues have been the most frequent source of trade disputes in the postwar trading system. While much protection remains, agricultural trade negotiations have resulted in substantial concessions as well as negotiation collapses. Food Fights over Free Trade shows that the liberalization that has occurred has been due to the role of international institutions. Christina Davis examines the past thirty years of U.S. agricultural trade negotiations with Japan and Europe based on statistical analysis of an original dataset, case studies, and in-depth interviews with over one hundred negotiators and politicians. She shows how the use of issue linkage and international law in the negotiation structure transforms narrow interest group politics into a more broad-based decision process that considers the larger stakes of the negotiation. Even when U.S. threats and the spiraling budget costs of agricultural protection have failed to bring policy change, the agenda, rules, and procedures of trade negotiations have often provided the necessary leverage to open Japanese and European markets. This book represents a major contribution to understanding the negotiation process, agricultural politics, and the impact of international institutions on domestic politics.

Book Synopsis Agricultural Trade Policy in Developing Countries During Take-off by : Michael Stockbridge
Download or read book Agricultural Trade Policy in Developing Countries During Take-off written by Michael Stockbridge and published by Oxfam. This book was released on 2007 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agricultural trade has always been one of the most sensitive international trade issues. Governments around the world have long been reluctant to abandon policy instruments that give them influence over domestic prices and allow them to raise revenues. This study looks briefly at the agriculture and trade policies of six different developing countries, each of which has enjoyed unusually high rates of economic growth and development: South Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia, Viet Nam, Chile, and Botswana. Their experience may shed further light on the extent to which governments should retain their powers to intervene in trade as opposed to relinquishing them in favour of market liberalisation.
