Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agricultural policy in Portugal, like the industry itself, has had a strongly regional flavor. Most of the government's support for agriculture until the mid-1960s was given to the latifundia areas of southern Portugal, principally through high wheat prices. In turn, the large landowners of the South supported the Salazar regime. By the late 1960s the government's emphasis had shifted to the small-farm areas of the North, with programs to encourage milk production, and to the central valleys, where tomato processing and livestock feeding were stimulated. Meanwhile, cereal prices remained highly protected. The 1974 Revolution, coinciding with a period of rapid inflation in Portugal and high international commodity prices, changed the orientation of farm policies. For most of the 1970s the emphasis was on cheap food for the urban workers, and considerable sums of money were spent on consumer subsidies. The need to control government spending and a desire to stimulate production led to a return in the early 1980s to higher producer prices and the removal of consumer subsidies. The higher producer prices for cereals are now being reduced as a part of the transitional arrangements following the accession of Portugal to the European Community in 1986. This study shows that economy-wide policies had a small impact on agricultural incentives compared to sector-specific policies during the period analyzed.

Download or read book Environmentally Harmful Subsidies written by and published by OECD. This book was released on 2005-08-15 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Subsidies are pervasive throughout OECD countries and worldwide. Every year, OECD countries transfer at least USD 400 billion to different economic sectors. Much of this support is potentially environmentally harmful. Reforming environmentally harmful subsidies is a significant policy challenge facing OECD countries. However, untangling and assessing the effects of subsidies on the environment is a complex task. A systematic approach is required to ensure that appropriate policies are developed and the benefits of reform fully realised. This report presents sectoral analyses on agriculture, fisheries, water, energy and transport. It proposes a checklist approach to identifying and assessing environmentally harmful subsidies. It also identifies the key tensions and conflicts that are likely to influence subsidy policy making. Can the political and economic impediments to subsidy reform be overcome? This book concludes with a discussion of politically feasible subsidy reform strategies. FURTHER READING Environmentally Harmful Subsidies: Policy Issues and Challenges (OECD, 2003)
