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 220 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 Agricultural Trade Conflicts And Gatt

Download or read book Agricultural Trade Conflicts And Gatt written by Giovanni Anania and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-13 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agricultural trade, always a source of international friction, will remain a contentious issue in the years to come. The GATT agreement achieved only partial trade liberalization; recognizing this, the agreement calls for a continuation of the negotiation process to achieve the long-run goal of a “substantial reduction in agricultural support and protection.†In any case, it is clear that U.S.-European Union (EU) agricultural trade relations will remain central to any future negotiation. In this volume, leading experts present a comprehensive set of analyses of the U.S.-EU agricultural trade conflict. The discussions provide a unique perspective on the U.S.-EU agricultural trade confrontation in recent years and offer insights into both the final GATT agreement and forthcoming agricultural issues. Presenting a broad historical context, the book focuses on changes in U.S. and European trade and agricultural policies, looking at the implications of these changes for bilateral relations and global agricultural markets. Providing U.S., EU, and third-party perspectives, the contributors analyze the negotiation process in the Uruguay Round of the GATT. Finally, the book explores several additional dimensions of the U.S.-EU agricultural trade conflict, including the consequences of the EU integration and enlargement processes, the environmental impact of the Union’s agricultural policies, and the mechanisms and forces that determine agricultural policy formation in both the United States and in Europe.

Book Agricultural Markets in Ukraine

Download or read book Agricultural Markets in Ukraine written by and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the current situation and an outlook for the major Ukrainian agricultural commodity markets until 2030 along with the update of the Ukraine country model in AGMEMOD. AGMEMOD is a system of partial equilibrium, medium-term, dynamic, multi-market and multi-country econometric models that is applied for generating projections for agricultural commodity markets of the EU and neighbour countries. In the current work, the database of the Ukraine country model in AGMEMOD has been updated to 2019-2020, the behavioural functions representing market agents re-estimated, and the beekeeping and bioethanol sectors included. The outlook rests upon a set of information and assumptions that were available and considered most plausible at the time when the analysis was conducted. For the projections, the continuation of current agricultural and trade policies in Ukraine is assumed, as well as coherent external projections that assume steady growth of the economy, declining population, increasing crude oil prices, improvement of crops and livestock production technologies, and moderate positive development of the world market prices for agricultural commodities. The cumulative impact of these macroeconomic developments is captured in the projections of agricultural markets in Ukraine. The outlook results for 2030 show that while the quantity of wheat produced will increase only marginally, maize is expected to become the dominant cereal in Ukrainian agriculture. Adaptation to climate change is the main driving force behind this trend. Domestic soya beans, rapeseed and sunflower seeds production will continue growing, along with the quantities of oilseed oils and meals. Although the further developing domestic poultry sector will drive feed demand, Ukraine will continue to be a net exporter of cereals, oilseed oils and meals. Cattle and swine farming will continue its ongoing structural change that shows the replacement of selfsubsistent producers (rural households) by specialised farms. However, the specialised larger producers will not compensate the loss in animal numbers from the rural households and, therefore, production quantities of beef and pork are likely to slow down in the next decade. Conversely, poultry meat and eggs production are projected to grow. Concentrated in large enterprises, the production of poultry meat is projected to increase by more than 30%, and of eggs by more than 50%, followed by growth in exports. Compared to the latest OECD-FAO agricultural outlook, the AGMEMOD outlook might be considered rather conservative for several Ukrainian sectors. Main reasons behind the differences of the two outlooks are discrepancies in the underlying databases, exogenous variables, and the weight given to the trends of the last decade. In this respect the two outlooks together may provide a span for the possible future developments of the Ukrainian agricultural sector by 2030. As the COVID-19 pandemic has been ongoing since early 2020, this report also analyses its impacts on the Ukrainian agriculture. The analysis demonstrates medium to long term resilience of the Ukrainian agricultural commodities production and export to this crisis. Overall, the current report shows that AGMEMOD provides relevant results and enables a structured discussion about key development trends, changes and causes of changes in production and trade of agri-food commodities. However, to guarantee solid and reliable simulation outcomes also in the future, careful calibrations of model parameters and assumptions, as well as validation of the model's outcomes are required. Therefore, not only the Ukraine country model of AGMEMOD has to be further developed, but also the network of local modelling teams and market experts should be continued to be strengthened.

Book EU Agricultural Outlook for Markets and Income 2020 2030

Download or read book EU Agricultural Outlook for Markets and Income 2020 2030 written by and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This outlook covers the period from 2020 to 2030 and reflects on current agricultural and trade policies. Projections are based on the latest OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook updated with the most recent global macroeconomic and market data. According to macroeconomic assumptions, the global economy will rebound in 2021-2022 and level off at an annual average growth of 3% by 2030. The EU economy should recover to its pre-COVID-19 level by 2023. The oil price, after bottoming out at USD 41/bbl in 2020, is due to reach USD 83/bbl in 2030. A moderate appreciation of the euro is expected in the medium term, reaching USD 1.16/EUR by 2030. These assumptions are based on average economic trends, so they presume market developments to be relatively smooth. However, in reality markets tend to be much more volatile. Recent free trade agreements (FTAs) are included if they have already been implemented (with Ukraine, Japan, Vietnam and Canada), while the ones only concluded are not (with Mercosur and the updated FTA with Mexico). Regarding the future relationship between the EU-27 and the UK, there is a purely technical assumption that duty-free/quota-free trading relations will continue. As macroeconomic projections and crop yield expectations are by nature surrounded by uncertainty, a systemic uncertainty analysis has been carried out, which enables us to illustrate possible developments caused by the uncertain conditions in the economy and agricultural markets. This report presents possible price ranges around the expected baseline. In addition, to address the implications of the uncertainties surrounding the post-pandemic recovery, specific scenarios look at alternative COVID-19 recovery pathways. Finally, a scenario about the use of food losses and food waste for insect farming to produce protein meal and oil for aquaculture is analysed and presented in the report.

Book Food Security and Sustainability

Download or read book Food Security and Sustainability written by George Mergos and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-26 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume brings together contributions from experts on a range of food security issues, and examines them through a number of case studies. A Millennium Development goal and important policy concern, food security is experiencing renewed interest due to globalisation, which has led to population affluence, changing consumption, and production and trade patterns. The authors discuss how globalisation brings a new dimension to the discussion on public policy on food security, and consider the extent to which Global Value Chains (GVCs) dominate trade, investment and international agricultural markets. Food Security and Sustainability therefore sheds new light on the nexus of food security and globalization, as well as its implications for investment and financing in the agro-food sector. The volume draws on papers presented at the inaugural Workshop of the Mediterranean Center for Food Security and Sustainable Growth (MED-SEC), an international network of academics focusing on issues of development, sustainability and food security.
