Book excerpt: Excerpt from Changes in Eec Imports of Commodities Affected by the Variable Levy System Within the framework of the Common Agricultural Policy (cap), the European Economic Community (eec) instituted its variable levy system on July 30, 1962. The commodities covered were grains, eggs, poultry, and pork. In the fall of 1964, the variable levy system was extended to cover rice, beef and veal, and dairy products. In general, the system stimulates internal production by establishing a high level of support prices and nullifies any price advantage non-eec exporters might have through a reliance on minimum import prices. This has created anxiety in the United States and in other countries supplying agricultural commodities to the eec. The Common Market is the largest single outlet for commercial exports of u.s. Farm products. Since 1960, the Community has purchased over a billion dollars annually of u.s. Agricultural exports, nearly billion in 1966. Over the past decade there has been a gradual and fairly persistent growth in a favorable trade position for the United States in agricultural products. This position constitutes a major part of the favorable overall commodity trade position of the United States with the Common Market.
