This book is centred around various interwoven topics which are fundamental to policy analysis in agriculture. Key concepts and tools that are fundamental for the analysis of agricultural policies and programmes are presented. Key concepts introduced include, the role of the state in a market economy with examples from the Sri Lankan and other developing economies, the international trade environment, and conceptual frameworks for analysing important domestic and international trade policies. It also highlights interconnections among agriculture, development, policy and illustrates the extent to which the agricultural sector contributes in achieving economic growth objectives, equity and equality objectives and environmental objectives. The book takes the readers through the nature of agricultural markets in developing countries, with special emphasis on Sri Lanka, and illustrates how the degree of competitiveness is measured at various market levels using multiple indices and methods. Several tools, with accompanying case studies, for the analysis of policies and programmes are detailed. These tools include the GTAP model, gravity models, extended benefit cost analysis, and linear programming. Tools and models are applied to the analysis of trade policies and agreements, marketing policies, environmental services, extension programmes, land tenure reforms and climate change adaptations.

This book stems from the FAO/Winrock International Workshop on Integration of SARD Issues in Agricultural Policy held May 22-24 1995 at FAO headquarters in Rome. The workshop centered on a paper written by Edward Schuh and Sandra Archibald, which had been prepared at the request of FAO. They were asked to work closely with the FAO to analyze agricultural policies and planning processes in relation to economic adjustment in developing countries. Second task was to discuss key issues in natural resource management and environmental protection for sustainable agriculture and rural development (SARD) in these countries, and based on these analyses, to develop a methodological and operational framework for the integration of environmental and sustainable development considerations into the mainstream of agricultural planning and policy analysis in the developing countries
