Reforming agricultural trade for developing countries

This is one volume of a two-volume set titled Reforming Agricultural Trade
for Developing Countries. The first volume is subtitled Key Issues for a Pro-
Development Outcome of the Doha Round, because the chapters are for the
most part focused on specific concerns that are being encountered in the agricultural
negotiations, and on strategies for dealing with them to arrive at a final
agreement that will significantly spur growth and reduce poverty in developing
countries. The companion volume is subtitled Quantifying the Impact of
Multilateral Trade Reform. It comprises chapters that take different approaches
to modeling trade reform and quantifying the resulting benefits and costs to various
players in the negotiations. The overview chapter of that volume explains
the differences in results that come out of these different approaches, and compares
them to some other recent estimates of the gains from global trade reform.
With few exceptions, the papers in these two volumes were first presented at
a workshop, “The Developing Countries, Agricultural Trade, and the WTO,”
sponsored by the International Agricultural Trade Research Consortium, the
World Bank, and Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, held in Whistler, British
Columbia, in June 2002.Most of the papers have been revised and updated for
this book. At the time of the workshop the Doha Round of multilateral trade
negotiations was in its early days and a negotiating framework had not been
proposed, so each paper invented its own scenario for evaluation.
