| This paper uses analytical and numerical general equilibrium models to assess the efficiency impacts of agricultural policies in a second-best setting with pre-existing distortionary taxes. We analyze production subsidies, production quotas, acreage controls, subsidies for acreage reductions and lump sum transfers to agricultural producers. We find that pre-existing taxes raise the cost of all these policies and by a substantial amount. Under our central estimates this increase in cost is typically at least 100-200 percent. Two effects underlie these results. First, raising the rates of distortionary taxes to finance subsidy policies leads to additional efficiency losses. Second, policies that raise (lower) the costs of producing agricultural output lead... |

| Since 1986, Vietnam started to move from a centrally-planned towards a market-oriented system. It underwent several major economic and trade reforms – a process which is still not completed. At the same time, it also started to open its economy. Vietnam has become a member of the ASEAN Free Trade Agreement (AFTA), signed several bilateral trade agreements and is currently negotiating accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO). First positive results of the reform process became visible in the early 1990s when poverty declined to a large extent. Since then, the Vietnamese agricultural sector has also experienced high growth and impressive export achievements. The country changed from a food importer to one of the major exporters worldwide. The question... |

| Resumo: O estudo procura avaliar as transformações estruturais na agropecuária de Goiás na última década, destacando a elevada concentração do uso da terra e sua sensível piora entre 1996 e 2006. Em 2006, os pequenos estabelecimentos (com até 200 hectares) somaram 81,85% e 19,79% da área de cultivo e criação. As Curvas de Lorenz e os Coeficientes de Gini calculados mostram maior assimetria nas atividades de florestas plantadas e lavouras temporárias. Goiás tem 65,2% dos estabelecimentos dirigidos por produtores familiares com posse de apenas 13% da área de cultivo, mas que empregam 68,37% da mão-de-obra rural. Em contraste, as grandes propriedades geram apenas 14,36% dos postos de trabalho. O modelo agrário e as políticas de crédito rural adotados ajudam a... |

| This paper examines Finnish citizens' attitudes towards multifunctional agriculture and further, the connections among these attitudes, consumers' willingness to pay, and some socio economic factors. Attitudinal dimensions were executed by using factor analysis. The respondents (N=1300) were distributed into clusters based on their attitudes. It would be expected that people who have positive attitudes, would also state high values of WTP. Instead, this study suggests that attitudes and open-ended WTP do not have a positive relation. People are willing to support domestic agriculture as a provider of safe and high-quality food. However, a remarkable proportion of Finnish citizens have a positive attitude towards externalities and joint products of... |

| Latin America is becoming the fastest growing agricultural production region and Brazil has by far the fastest growing agricultural sector. China from being a small agricultural importer (1.4% of world imports in 1990/01), became the fifth largest importer at 5.4% of world imports in 2006/07. China's overall trade with Latin America has expanded substantially during the last two decades -the rate of growth has been greater than any other region in the world since 2005. Most exports from Latin America to China are primary products while Chinese exports to Latin America are mostly industrial products. The Chinese demand for agricultural products is concentrated in food products such as grains and oilseeds. Countries specialised in those commodities –eg.... |

| While agricultural policies in Europe place ever greater emphasis on the importance of agricultures' multiple roles, it is difficult to find policy measures designed specially for multifunctionality. The aim of our study is to identify actual and preferred policy measures to improve or to maintain the multifunctional role of agriculture, or both. We used the applied policy Delphi method to interview 24 Finnish experts in order to map a preferred set of policy measures to truly enhance multifunctionality. The results indicate that Finnish experts prefer targeted measures based on different national, regional and local agricultural conditions, but may be unaware of the costs these targeted policies might cause. |

| As transformacoes em curso na sociedade, exigem mudancas nos mecanismos de formulacao de politicas publicas, inclusive no que se refere a politica agricola. Neste sentido, propoe-se a introducao da "etica agricola" como um meio de encontrar sinergias e interacoes entre a economia agricola, a sociologia rural e a filosofia moral, dentre outros. O objetivo deste trabalho e identificar os problemas e dilemas eticos dos diferentes componentes da politica e das praticas agricolas. O argumento metodologico, baseou-se no levantamento bibliografico do atual estado-da-arte acerca das "convergencias" e "divergencias" entre a etica e os conceitos relativos as instituicoes e praticas sociais em sua evolucao historica. Entende-se como etica, o quadro de principios,... |
