| Agricultural biotechnology has been advancing very rapidly, and while it presents many promises, it also poses as many questions. Many dimensions to agricultural biotechnology need to be considered to adequately inform public policy. Policy is made more difficult by the fact that agricultural biotechnology encompasses many policy issues addressed in very different ways. We have identified several key areas agricultural research policy, industry structure, production and marketing, consumer issues, and future world food demand where agricultural biotechnology is dramatically affecting the public policy agenda. This report focuses on the economic aspects of these issues and addresses some current and timely issues as well as longer term issues. |

| Wheat types may be classified according to strength, a baking characteristic. Since the demand for wheat is derived demand, the baking characteristic is directly related to end use. Accordingly, the wheat classes that are used in this study are divided into sub-groups according to strength, that is, strong, medium, and weak wheats. Time-series methods are employed to determine how the different classes of wheats are related within each sub-group. The different wheats under the different sub-groups are found to be substitutes to various degrees, but form a robust cointegrating relationship, implying that the wheat prices in these markets are bound together by a long-term equilibrium relationship. Within each of the sub-groups, the U.S. wheats were found to... |

| RESUMEN: La creciente preocupación por la seguridad alimentaria y la mayor sensibilidad al deterioro medioambiental pueden favorecer la expansión de los productos ecológicos. No obstante, el consumo de este tipo de productos no ha crecido al mismo ritmo que la producción. El diferencial de precios respecto de los productos convencionales, los deficientes canales de distribución, y su desconocimiento parecen estar en la raíz del problema. El objetivo de este trabajo se centra en estudiar en profundidad estas limitaciones. Con este fin, se han realizado dos entrevistas, en Pamplona, a los miembros de la cadena agroalimentaria básicos para el posible desarrollo de dicho mercado: consumidores y distribuidores. El primer colectivo se ha segmentado en función de... |

| Economic change and market dynamics have fundamentally altered the structure and performance of agricultural markets in the United States, Canada, and Mexico within the last 25 years. Many factors have helped shape the current North American food and fiber system, including technological change, domestic farm policies, international trade agreements, and the economic forces of supply and demand. Ratification of NAFTA, for example, helped integrate the North American market, sparking a surge in trade and investment among the United States, Canada, and Mexico. In recent years, efforts to further integrate the continental market seem to have slowed. Broadening the scope of NAFTA to include institutional reforms that lead to a more unified system of commercial... |
