Setting the agenda for the next agricultural negotiation

Setting the agenda for the next agricultural negotiation

Show other versions (5)

The paper looks at three possible answers. The agenda and impetus may come from: another crisis in the agricultural trading system; perceptions of new trading opportunities, or the emergence of a global food system that needs clarification and ratification through further negotiations. It concludes that betting on a crisis is too uncertain. Banking on changing interests and perceptions is a possibility for some commodities but unlikely for all. Consolidating the emerging global food market into a global open food system seems the most likely and promosing avenue to reform, extending developments in trading arrangements and investment patterns that have been occurring since the Uruguay Round began
