Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Grain Price System of the European Community The Treaty of Rome in 1957 established the basis for the European Community's common agricultural policy (cap) for grain. Beginning on July 1, 1962, the six member states brought their individual grain policies through a transition period which was completed in most respects on July 1, 1967. Prior to establishment of the cap, levels of support prices for grains in France were partly dependent upon changes in world market conditions. In addition, large French producers of wheat were under a quantum system, which reduced the final level of returns as the amount of wheat delivered increased; in some years this feature meant that marginal returns were no higher than the world price. The feedgrain prices in other member countries were based generally upon world market levels. Only in West Germany were all grain prices guaranteed at a level well above the world price level. The Community since July 1, 1967, has guaranteed the price of ec-produced grain at a relatively high level through a system of intervention or support prices. Since EC intervention prices are above the levels of external or world prices. The intervention system must be protected from these external influences if it is to function. All grains imported enter the Community at price levels above the highest intervention price. The mechanism for raising the prices of imported grains to these levels is the variable import levy. Threshold prices (which are further explained in the section describing the EC import system) are set for each grain to serve as a basis for the levies assessed against grain entering from third countries. These threshold prices, though applied at a different location, generally parallel the internal-market intervention prices which they are designed to protect.

This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Competition in the Grain Market of Western Europe In buying and selling grain, the landed price is, of course, the principal con sideration traders take into account. Most of the people interviewed during the course of this study stressed the strong competition in the grain business and asserted that all transactions hinge on price, except for certain minimum requirements of hard wheat. Then, quality is the main consideration. In their discussions, traders talked of the different elements that make up the landed price: The cost of the grain at points of export and import, insurance, shipping charges, delivery points, import duties and taxes, exchange rates. Thus it was clear that traders' preoccupation is with the margin of profit, not with the cost of grain alone. And, since they are in position to handle grain from any exporting country, their concern is not with source but with the elements that make up the landed price and the Operating margins. For example, at the time of this study, U. S. No. 2 Yellow and Eastern European corn were priced for export at the same level, and most of the traders interviewed considered these corns interchangeable. However, since East European corn can be moved cheaply along the Danube and other waterways into southern Germany, Austria, and Italy, u.s. Corn is not fully competitive in these markets.

Download or read book The Common Agricultural Policy of the European Community written by John F. Hudson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-12-21 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Common Agricultural Policy of the European Community: November 1973 When the European Community (ec) was established in 1958, it was apparent that a single system of farm support and protection would be necessary to create the conditions of competition that would permit trade between the member states (germany, France, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg) to develop, and duties and restrictions between the member states to be removed. The system which the EC then devised in known as the Common Agricultural Policy (cap). In joining the EC in 1973, the United Kingdom, Denmark, and Ireland agreed to implement the cap beginning in 1973, 'and to adjust their price levels and customs charges to common levels over 5 years ending in 1978. The first cap regulations were established in 1962 and covered grains, poultry, pork, eggs, and fruit and vegetables. Regulations for beef, milk, and rice followed in 1964; fats and oils in 1966 and 1967; sugar in 1967 and 1968; and more recently tobacco, wine, hops, seeds, flax, silk, and fish. The cap is perhaps most easily understood in terms of three principles: common pricing, Community preference, and common financing. Common pricing is the regulation of prices, Community-wide but not necessarily at a single level, in order to permit and promote free trade between members. No restraint is placed on production. Community preference is the organization of Community markets so that domestic products will always be cheaper than the corresponding import. The two most common devices employed to this end are minimum import prices and subsidies on domestic products. Common financing is the obligation of the Community to pay whatever is required to meet the costs of unlimited support. For two-thirds of EC production - grains, rice, sugar, olive oil, and the main animal products - common pricing and Community preference are achieved through the variable levy system. As this system Operates for grains, the market for the most important cereals is supported by government purchasing of any amount offered at fixed support, or intervention, prices. Intervention prices are set at different levels according to the producing area so that products of the main producing areas can compete equally with each other in the most deficit consuming centers - primarily Duisburg, Germany. The price at which grains can be sold at intervention in producing areas is, therefore, equal to the Duisburg price, minus freight from the given producing area. The Duisburg intervention price is set a little below the desired wholesale price for Duisburg - the target price. Imports are prevented from selling at less than the target price because imports must meet a minimum import price, or threshold price, which is equal to the Duisburg target price minus transport costs from Rotterdam. The Community observes world market price quotations for grains each day and adjusts these quotations to what they would be if they were made for grains of a standard EC quality delivered to Rotterdam. The lowest suchadjusted price for each grain is then subtracted from its threshold price. The difference is a vari able levy which is applied to all imports of the grain in question regardless of its actual price. In this way, the EC allows third countries to supply only those qualities and quantities of each grain that cannot be supplied by domestic production. The levy on August 1, 1972 (beginning of the 1972-73 marketing year), was 1 22 percent of the lowest adjusted price for wheat imports, 84 percent for corn, and comparably high for other products.

Download or read book How China Escaped Shock Therapy written by Isabella M. Weber and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-26 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China has become deeply integrated into the world economy. Yet, gradual marketization has facilitated the country’s rise without leading to its wholesale assimilation to global neoliberalism. This book uncovers the fierce contest about economic reforms that shaped China’s path. In the first post-Mao decade, China’s reformers were sharply divided. They agreed that China had to reform its economic system and move toward more marketization—but struggled over how to go about it. Should China destroy the core of the socialist system through shock therapy, or should it use the institutions of the planned economy as market creators? With hindsight, the historical record proves the high stakes behind the question: China embarked on an economic expansion commonly described as unprecedented in scope and pace, whereas Russia’s economy collapsed under shock therapy. Based on extensive research, including interviews with key Chinese and international participants and World Bank officials as well as insights gleaned from unpublished documents, the book charts the debate that ultimately enabled China to follow a path to gradual reindustrialization. Beyond shedding light on the crossroads of the 1980s, it reveals the intellectual foundations of state-market relations in reform-era China through a longue durée lens. Overall, the book delivers an original perspective on China’s economic model and its continuing contestations from within and from without.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'One of the most powerful books in the social sciences ever written. ... A must-read' Thomas Piketty 'The twentieth century's most prophetic critic of capitalism' Prospect Karl Polanyi's landmark 1944 work is one of the earliest and most powerful critiques of unregulated markets. Tracing the history of capitalism from the great transformation of the industrial revolution onwards, he shows that there has been nothing 'natural' about the market state. Instead of reducing human relations and our environment to mere commodities, the economy must always be embedded in civil society. Describing the 'avalanche of social dislocation' of his time, Polanyi's hugely influential work is a passionate call to protect our common humanity. 'Polanyi's vision for an alternative economy re-embedded in politics and social relations offers a refreshing alternative' Guardian 'Polanyi exposes the myth of the free market' Joseph Stiglitz With a new introduction by Gareth Dale
