Agricultural Policy Reform in the WTO: Challenges for Analysts

Abstract

I want to first of all take this opportunity to thank Thomas Hertel and the GTAP staff at Purdue University for giving me the opportunity to talk about the challenges that we had in the first stages of the ERS research program on WTO matters. Tom well knows what many of these challenges were, because he and his staff worked very hard with us to develop a global agricultural policy database that improved our ability to analyze the increasingly complex farm programs that are now under negotiation. These initial efforts have made us more aware of the distance we have yet to cover if we are to credibly analyze farm policies in global CGE modeling frameworks. Today, I want to talk about both our recent accomplishments and some priority areas for future work.
