Macroeconomic policies and agroindustrial development
The paper presents in the first place some structural conditions affecting agroindustry that should be kept in mind when undertaking agroindustrial development, especially as regards macroeconomic policies. Next, an analysis is made of the most common macroeconomic policies and how they affect agricultural enterprises at both the national and international levels, according to the different structural conditions. Likewise, reference is made to how the demand for agroindustrial products is affected by prevailing macroeconomic conditions. Then, the determining factors in several successfull agricultural and agroindustrial modernization processes in some Latin American countries are studied. The characteristics of these processes are examined in relation to the macroeconomic and sectoral policies in effect in each country. Finally, the challenges that must be faced in the future when defining and applying agroindustrial development policies are described, and the elements for a proposal for a comprehensive policy are presented
