Book excerpt: This report examines the following set of determinants to assess their likely impacts on the international agricultural trade agenda: the dynamics of World Trade Organization (WTO) implementation of existing agreements; the influence of WTO accession negotiations, and the role of new members; the ongoing reforms of national and agricultural policies; the effects of regional economic integration; the role of new groupings and coalitions; and the emergence of new trade-related issues. The report discusses these elements in the context of the broader trends that define the shape and direction of the international policy environment. These trends include globalization, structural change in agri-food markets and industries, and the particular supply and demand situation for agri-food products.
