| description |
This chapter begins with a brief summary
of the long history of national distortions to agricultural
markets. It then outlines the methodology used to generate
annual indicators of the extent of government interventions
in markets, details of which are provided in Anderson and
appendix A. A description of the economies under study and
their economic growth and structural changes over recent
decades is then briefly presented as a preface to the main
section of the chapter, in which the nominal rates of
assistance and consumer tax equivalents (NRA and CTE)
estimates are summarized across regions and over the decades
since the 1950s. These estimates are discussed in far more
detail in the regional chapters that follow. A summary is
also provided of an additional set of indicators of
agricultural price distortions presented in chapter eleven
that are based on the trade restrictiveness index first
developed by Anderson and Neary (2005). In chapter twelve
the focus shifts from countries to commodities, and all the
various distortion indicators are used to provide a sense of
how distorted are each of the key farm commodity markets
globally. Then chapter thirteen uses the study's NRA
and CTE estimates to provide a new set of results from a
global economy-wide model that attempts to quantify the
impacts on global markets, net farm incomes and welfare of
the reforms since the early 1980s and of the policies still
in place as of 2004. The chapter concludes by drawing on the
lessons learned to speculate on the prospects for further
reducing the disarray in world agricultural markets. |
