This paper suggests that decontrol of
the gum arabic export market could increase export revenues
for Sudan and raise significantly the income of small scale
farmers. One of the key commitments made by the Government
of National Unity under the Joint Assessment Mission
framework was to "abolish the export monopoly"
over raw gum arabic. This commitment has not been
implemented. The objective of this policy note is twofold:
(a) to assess the impact of the Government policy for the
export marketing of gum arabic, (b) to identify options for
changing the current marketing arrangements in order to
increase and stabilize gum exports, capture more value added
in Sudan and provide producers with a larger share of export prices. |
