The impacts of different agricultural policy instruments on domestic surplus and trade relations
by Vincent Richard
Welfare economics explain some of the implications of agricultural policy choices on welfare gains for the European Union in the light of recent debates on the coming CAP reform and the coming round of multilateral trade talks. The findings of the welfare economics analysis of different policies also concern trade relations.
It is found that an economy in partial equilibrium in terms of its agricultural sector, using the domestic collective surplus criterion (sum of gains and losses for producers, consumers and public finances), would find it worthwhile to multilaterally withdraw all the policies that distort its domestic production and consumption choices and trade. This path does not challenge compliance with agricultural policy targets such as the CAP objectives. It actually helps to attain them at less cost, unlike price support policies, irrespective of whether they are combined with supply quotas. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
