Growth in global agricultural production is slowing - projected at 1.5% annually in coming decade

Consumption increasing ◦ But response to income growth is low in many countries

Strong prices (expected to remain firm) are prompting investments into production capacity and technology (but not by all)

Constrained by structure of agriculture, high energy costs, limitation on land and water, tighter environmental regulations

Emerging economies remain agricultural growth leaders

Food security

– Availability, access and stability concerns. Greater focus on domestic markets in pursuit of national FS objectives

Exporters: ₋ Export restrictions to moderate domestic price increases

Importers: ₋ Tackling higher food import bills ₋ Productivity increases/food self-sufficiency more in focus ₋ Enabling higher response by smallholders more in focus ₋ Importance of stage of development now recognized

But trade policy is not just about Food Security - Minimizing rural-urban income differentials - Export led growth: getting the balance right

And trade barriers are not just tariffs − Food safety −TBT

Page 18: FAO International Technical Consultation on Low …...Global market context Short term market movements Medium term projections Policy challenges Trade policy and global market impacts

‣ Impact on global markets determined by:

₋ Way in which increase in production handled by producing country

₋ Size of any surplus that finds its way onto the international market

₋ Characteristics of that market ...

‣ Extent to which other countries are affected by a

change in global market conditions depends on their own trade status:

₋ Food exporter ₋ country’s exporting firms may face reduced prices with

implications for the farmers from which they source

₋ Food importer ₋ fall in price may be positive development if the country is in a

structural deficit for agroclimatic reasons; ₋ but may be less positive for a country with ag potential

Gravity-type bilateral export flow model: ◦ Assumes that bilateral trade between partner

countries increases with size (income, population) and closeness

◦ Cross-sectional data

◦ Introduce GMO regulation index and LLP threshold

lnEij = lnα + β1lnYi + β2lnYj + β3lnDij

+β4lnReg-Indexj +β5lnLLPj +ln ɛij

Page 22: FAO International Technical Consultation on Low …...Global market context Short term market movements Medium term projections Policy challenges Trade policy and global market impacts

GMO regulation index of importing country - Reg-Indexj ◦ existence of food, feed, and environmental regulation ◦ safety risk assessment ◦ labelling requirement ◦ LLP test requirement ◦ traceability requirement ◦ socio-economic assessment ◦ existence of zero tolerance for unauthorized GM crops ◦ food, feed, and environmental safety assessments to international guidelines ◦ restrictiveness of authorization policy ◦ testing requirement form exporting country ◦ technical capacity to detect GMOs ◦ detection methods utilized

LLP threshold of the importing country - LLPj ◦ Model 3 - LLP variable takes either the value 0.1, or 10 for countries that do

not have the threshold. ◦ Model 4 - LLP threshold takes into account reported threshold levels and

combination of factors - zero tolerance and existence of GMO regulation. ◦ Model 5 - LLP variable takes the value 0.1 for the EU members, and 1 for

other countries, controlling for EU internal trade.

Regulation variable is negative and significant at the 10 percent level. Implies that a more restrictive GMO regulation has a deterrent effect on maize trade flow.

Models 3 and 4 indicate that LLP does not have a significant impact on trade flows

Model 5 (lower threshold) suggests that the impact of LLP on trade flows may be significant, but not necessarily trade distorting.

The inclusion of fixed effects yielded similar results for the regulation index, but the LLP variable became positive (but significant only at the 10 percent level).

Improved datasets required on: ◦ policies on GMOs existing between trading partners

◦ different timings for approvals etc

Further studies examining the impacts of regulations and threshold levels on global trade in the context of multiple products

When limitations of datasets overcome, impact of regulations should be analyzed in a dynamic setting
