The liberalization of agricultural trade is crucial to the continuing Uruguay Round of GATT trade negotiations. The crisis in international agricultural trade was the subject of much public debate during the 1980s. An impasse on agriculture between the US and the European Community delayed the conclusion of the Uruguay Round. This work aims to provide an important input into an understanding of the issues concerned. The authors have built a simulation model of world markets for seven individual commodity groups (wheat, coarse grains, rice, dairy products, sugar, ruminant meat and non-ruminant meat). This model has then been used to assess the effects of agriculture protection on prices, trade, welfare and equity in developed and developing countries. They continue with a quantification of the effects of liberalizing trade in farm products. This study updates the authors' results with improvements and extensions to their model. In addition to refining the model their projections now run through to the year 2000. This Thames Essay extends the authors' important contribution to the continuing debate on world trade in agriculture products.

Why have agricultural policies become more inward-looking as the world becomes increasingly interdependent economically? Disarray in World Food Markets addresses the nature and causes of this crisis in international trade policy. Its analysis of the effects of these food policies is complemented by a quantitative review of the long term trends in world food markets. The study also extensively examines the reasons why governments choose to implement distortionary policies. These issues have been widely discussed, particularly because of the interest generated by the so-called Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations, held under the auspices of the GATT. Disarray in World Food Markets analyzes some of the elements of the reforms emerging from these trade negotiations and discusses what the likely benefits may be. The model on which the analysis is based has a number of features unique for its time. It incorporates thirty countries and country groups, seven food commodity groups, the dynamic properties of international food markets, the pure protection component of food and agricultural policy, as well as the insulating component of policy.
