Determinants of Farm Policies in the United States, 1996-2008
This paper focuses on the political economy of United States (U.S.) farm policy since the Uruguay round trade negotiations concluded in 1994 and established the World Trade Organization (WTO). The continued ability of the powerful farm lobby in the U.S. to elicit support in the political arena is evident from this analysis. Yet there have been some substantial changes in policy that have reduced their distortionary effects, as well as some setbacks to liberalizing reform. New Doha round commitments could put further constraints on subsidies provided by some U.S. policy instruments. And despite the ability of the farm lobby to retain its support programs through 2012, there are several political uncertainties about the alignments that have allowed U.S. farm support to endure.

This paper focuses on the political
economy of United States (U.S.) farm policy since the
Uruguay round trade negotiations concluded in 1994 and
established the World Trade Organization (WTO). The
continued ability of the powerful farm lobby in the U.S. to
elicit support in the political arena is evident from this
analysis. Yet there have been some substantial changes in
policy that have reduced their distortionary effects, as
well as some setbacks to liberalizing reform. New Doha round
commitments could put further constraints on subsidies
provided by some U.S. policy instruments. And despite the
ability of the farm lobby to retain its support programs
through 2012, there are several political uncertainties
about the alignments that have allowed U.S. farm support to endure. |
