Book The Common Agricultural Policy of the European Community

Download or read book The Common Agricultural Policy of the European Community written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1988-11-25 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chapter discusses principles and consequences of the common agricultural policy (CAP) of the European Community (EC). It shows that agricultural pricing policies aimed at supporting farm incomes were already in place in EC member countries before the inception of the CAP; indeed, in the presence of these policies, the CAP was a logical consequence of the extension of the common market to the agricultural sector. Thus, the flaws of the CAP can be traced back to national policies and attitudes toward agriculture. Recognition of the burden of agricultural support on the rest of the economy, as well as the growing budgetary costs, has elicited a greater public interest in the CAP. Equally, the trade frictions caused by export subsidies have underlined the CAP's international implications. For these reasons, the member states appear more determined than hitherto to bring agricultural expenditure under control. Given the wider effects of the CAP both on EC economies and the international community, it is to be hoped that current efforts at reform will be successful.

Download or read book European Agriculture written by Brian Gardner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-04-10 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is central to both economic and environmental developments in Europe. But with the advent of new environmental legislation and political change in Europe the CAP faces increasing pressure to reform. European Agriculture provides a comprehensive breakdown of the workings of the CAP and its impact on farming in Europe. The author discusses every aspect of European agricultural policy, production and trade, from environmental contraints and the impact of biotechnology, to the role of European farming in the world food supply system. Posing direct questions about the recent 1992 agricultural reform, the 1994 GATT agreement and the reasons for the expensive continuation of the CAP, European Agriculture analyses the economic, political and environmental implications of pursuing present farming policy and provides a provocative commentary on the agricultural future of Europe.

Book The European Common Market and U  S  Agriculture  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The European Common Market and U S Agriculture Classic Reprint written by Irwin R. Hedges and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The European Common Market and U. S. Agriculture The European Common Market - its official name is the European Eco nomic Community - consists of six countries - France, West Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. These countries have founded an economic union and are taking down the trade walls that have separated them for centuries. Eventually commerce within the combined area will be carried on freely - much as it is among the States of the United States. There will be no tariffs among individual countries making up this customs union, and no restrictions on movement of goods, capital, services, and workers. Like the United States, the Common Market as a unit will have a single policy on im ports from outside countries. The treaty establishing the Common Market, signed by the six countries in Rome, Italy, in March 1957, also provides for expansion of the Community. The United Kingdom, Ireland, Denmark, and Norway have applied for full membership, and eec negotiations looking to accession of the United Kingdom are well advanced. An agreement of association between Greece and the Common Market has been concluded. Turkey, Austria, Sweden, Switzerland, and Spain are also seeking some form of association With the Common Market. The Rome Treaty established a transition period, during which the merger of the several economies is to take place. Transition is scheduled to end not later than the end of December 1969, but could be extended to the end of December 1972. The member governments are moving toward the uniform common market in stages of 4 years each, during which internal barriers to trade are progressively abolished. The first phase was completed on January 1, 1962. Important steps toward merger of the industrial economy were taken during that first phase. There were substantial cuts in internal tariffs, and complete abolition of quota restrictions on industrial goods traded among member countries. Agriculture was excluded from the first stage because of lack of agree ment on steps to harmonize national agricultural policies. After protracted negotiations, agreement was reached in January 1962 on the first steps to be taken toward a common agricultural policy. During the second phase of the transition period which began on January 1, 1962, progress will be made to ward creating a common market for agricultural products. The first Community-wide regulations for agricultural commodities went into effect July 30, 1962, for wheat, feed grains, flour, poultry and eggs, fruits and vegetables, Wine, live h0gs, and hog carcasses.

Book Agriculture and The World Trade Organisation

Download or read book Agriculture and The World Trade Organisation written by G. S. Bhalla, Jean-Luc Racine, Frédéric Landy and published by Les Editions de la MSH. This book was released on 2008-05-05 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume offers to the reader a multi-faceted dialogue between noted experts from two major agricultural countries, both founding members of the Word Trade Organisation, each one with different stakes in the great globalisation game. After providing the recent historical background of agricultural policies in India and France, the contributors address burning issues related to market and regulation, food security and food safety, the expected benefits from the WTO and the genuine problems raised by the new forms of international trade in agriculture, including the sensitive question of intellectual property rights in bio-technologies. This informed volume underlines the necessity of moving beyond the North-South divide, in order to address the real challenges of the future.

Book The Political Economy of the 2014 2020 Common Agricultural Policy

Download or read book The Political Economy of the 2014 2020 Common Agricultural Policy written by Johan F.M. Swinnen and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-07-30 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After five years of debates, consultations and negotiations, the European institutions reached an agreement in 2013 on the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) for the 2014-2020 period. The outcome has major implications for the EU’s budget and farmers’ incomes, but also for Europe’s environment, its contribution to global climate change and to food security in the EU and in the world. It was decided to spend more than €400 billion during the rest of the decade on the CAP. The official claims are that the new CAP will take better account of society's expectations and lead to far-reaching changes by making subsidies fairer and ‘greener’ and making the CAP more efficient. It is also asserted that the CAP will play a key part in achieving the overall objective of promoting smart, sustainable and inclusive growth. However, there is significant scepticism about these claims and disappointment with the outcome of the decision-making, the first in which the European Parliament was involved under the co-decision procedure. In contrast to earlier reforms where more substantive changes were made to the CAP, the factors that induced the policy discussions in 2008-13 and those that influenced the decision-making did not reinforce each other. On the contrary, they sometimes counteracted one another, yielding an ‘imperfect storm’ as it were, resulting in more status quo and fewer changes. This book discusses the outcome of the decision-making and the factors that influenced the policy choices and decisions. It brings together contributions from leading academics from various disciplines and policy-makers, and key participants in the process from the European Commission and the European Parliament.

Book Macroeconomic Gains from Reforming the Agri Food Sector  The Case of France

Download or read book Macroeconomic Gains from Reforming the Agri Food Sector The Case of France written by Nicoletta Batini and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2019-02-26 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: France is the top agricultural producer in the European Union (EU), and agriculture plays a prominent role in the country’s foreign trade and intermediate exchanges. Reflecting production volumes and methods, the sector, however, also generates significant negative environmental and public health externalities. Recent model simulations show that a well-designed shift in production and consumption to make the former sustainable and align the latter with recommended values can curb these considerably and generate large macroeconomic gains. I propose a policy toolkit in line with the government’s existing sectoral policies that can support this transition.

Book The Common Agricultural Policy

Download or read book The Common Agricultural Policy written by Wyn Grant and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 1997-06-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the Common Agricultural Policy which imposes high costs on taxpayers and consumers yet has proved very difficult to reform.
