This paper reviews, from the perspective of developing countries, the recent agreement reached at the 10th WTO Ministerial at Nairobi related to export competition, including exports subsidies, food aid, export credits and guarantees, and state trading enterprises (STEs). The legal and economic aspects of the agreement are examined, and the relevance of banning agricultural export subsidies are noted. This eliminates some of the worst-case scenarios, if agricultural world prices continue to soften and the important margin of export subsidies still allowed under the WTO framework was to be used. But given the relatively longer transition period for some relevant products before export subsidies are completely banned, the paper argues for continued monitoring of the potential use of this instrument. The paper also discusses the other components of export competition, looking into the legal and economic aspects. Some suggestions about continuous work on transparency and monitoring of current practices, and further disciplines are also presented.

Global agricultural trade has increased significantly in value terms since 2000. Its pattern has also changed – emerging economies and developing countries play a bigger role in international markets, and South–South agricultural trade has expanded significantly. Climate change is expected to affect agriculture, food security and nutrition unevenly across countries and regions. Changes in comparative advantage in agriculture around the world will also affect international trade. This edition of The State of Agricultural Commodity Markets focuses on the complex and underexplored intersection between agricultural trade, climate change and food security. The report makes an important contribution to the policy debates on climate change adaptation and mitigation under the Paris Agreement and the multilateral agricultural trade rules. The report discusses policies – both domestic support and trade measures – that can promote food security, adaptation and mitigation, and improve the livelihoods of family farmers around the world. Given both the slow- and rapid-onset impacts of climate change, policies that can significantly promote climate change adaptation and mitigation would benefit from deeper discussions in international fora on how to strengthen the mutually supportive role of trade rules and climate interventions.

This study reviews policy developments in recent years and, in the light of that, explores ways in which further consensus might be reached among WTO members to reduce farm trade distortions – and thereby also progress the multilateral trade reform agenda. Particular attention is given to ways that would boost well-being in developing countries, especially for those food-insecure households still suffering from poverty and hunger.

The book, World Trade Organization and the Third World neatly traces the background against which the General Agreement on Trade & Tariffs(GATT) was formed with the objective of upholding free and fair trade at global level, until the Final Agreement was arrived at under GATT. An overview is made about the results of the various rounds of trade talks /negotiations concluded so far under the aegis of GATT, in particular, about the Uruguay Round and its results. It also clearly discusses the various measures against unfair trade practices, Contingency Trade Measures for Improvement of Global Trade and the agreements reached so far in both traditional and non-traditional trade areas/sectors, and their implications on Third World countries including India. It embarks well upon the experiences of the developing and the less developed countries in the Third World, and suggests different ways to negotiate in future. It has been well-proven in this book that the Ministerial Conferences at WTO level are a bit uncertain and unpredictable. The book thus unfolds the deficiencies and imbalances witnessed under the WTO system, and points out the critical choices to be made by the member nations of WTO in future negotiations.

This paper has traced the discussions about export subsidies in trade negotiations and highlighted the particular anomaly that while export subsidies in industrial products have been banned under WTO rules, at the time of this writing, they are still allowed for agricultural products, including some that are rather industrialized, such as dairy and meat products. We also noted that, in recent years, the use of export subsidies has been declining (but did not disappear) due to the fact that agricultural and food prices have increased significantly since the lows of the early 2000s. Therefore, those export subsidies were not needed to sell in world markets and the WTO allowances have been above the levels actually utilized (what sometimes is called “water” in the commitments).
