| In China, with the cost of improved technology rising, surplus labor shrinking, and demand for food quality and safety increasing, it will be just a matter of time before the country's hog production sector will be commercialized like that of developed countries. However, even if China's cost of production converges to international levels, as shown in this case study, China may continue to retain some competitive advantage because of the labor-intensive nature of the marketing services involved in hog processing and meat distribution. The supply of variety meats offers the most promising market opportunity for foreign suppliers in China. The market may open further if the tariff rate for variety meats is reduced from 20% and harmonized with the pork... |

| This article evaluates the effects of alternative fluid milk procurement strategies on the aggregate net revenue of Florida cooperative members. They are (1) supplemental milk obtained from import sources, (2) supplemental milk obtained from a supply plant, (3) increased supply as a result of an expanded production area, and (4) supplemental milk obtained through pooling arrangements with regional dairy cooperatives. The final ranking of a scenario appears to be dependent primarily on the total cost of exports within the model. The optimal procurement strategy for Florida cooperatives should concentrate on reducing the quantity of surplus milk. |

| This paper estimates a demand system for a selected tropical fresh fruit and vegetable imports in to the U.S. using a Linear Approximate Almost Ideal Demand Systems model for the period 1989-2008. Further the paper attempts to capture trade policy and seasonality effects that affect the demand for fresh fruit and vegetable imports. Results show that most of the price elasticities of demand have the expected signs and less than unity magnitude except for tomatoes. Complimentary commodities include bananas and papayas, grapes, and mangoes, peppers and tomatoes and avocados, and tomatoes and cucumber. Substitutes include pineapples and papayas, grapes and papayas, and mangoes and tomatoes. Trade policy and seasonality are also found to affect fresh fruit and... |

| The general objective of this study is to analyze the economic impact of the recently negotiated U.S. - Australia Free Trade Agreement (FTA). Specific objectives are to estimate changes in trade and prices in different sectors of the U.S. and Australian economies and to determine the impact on U.S. agriculture and the U.S. beef industry in particular. The results of a general equilibrium analysis suggest that the FTA will not have significant effects on the economies of Australia, the United States, or the rest of the world. The United States could achieve gains in the manufacturing sector, but the U.S. agricultural sector could experience small losses as Australia could increase exports of dairy products and beef to the United States. The results of... |

| Para medir los efectos PROCAMPO sobre la producción e importaciones de maíz (Zea mays L.) y sorgo (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) se estimaron dos funciones de oferta usando series de 1980 a 2009, y se construyó un sistema de ecuaciones en el año 2007/2009. Los resultados indican que el maíz y el sorgo tienen una respuesta inelástica ante el pago de PROCAMPO con elasticidades de 0.24 y 0.22 para maíz y sorgo. Si PROCAMPO no hubiera existido, la producción de maíz y sorgo hubiera sido menor en 17 y 9.1%, respecto al nivel observado en 2007/2009. Un aumento de 50% en el pago de PROCAMPO aumentaría la producción de maíz y sorgo en 1,924 y 286 mil toneladas, y disminuiría las importaciones en esa cantidad. La evolución de los precios internacionales del sorgo y... |

| La incertidumbre del cambio climático y sus efectos en la agricultura llevan a los productores de granos forrajeros a buscar cultivos con mayor tolerancia a las condiciones climáticas observadas. El objetivo de este estudio fue medir el efecto del cambio climático en los mercados de maíz y sorgo en México, para lo cual se construyó un modelo Armington para el periodo 2008/2010. Los resultados obtenidos mostraron que un cambio en el rendimiento de maíz; a causa de los cambios en la temperatura y precipitación en México durante el cultivar de maíz, incrementará las importaciones de maíz y sorgo, y los precios de importación aumentarán aproximadamente en la misma proporción para ambos cultivos. Si los rendimientos de sorgo disminuyeran debido al cambio... |
