Abstract: Canadian support to agriculture averaged 35 percent of the value of agricultural gross receipts during 1982-92, compared with 23 percent in the United States and 21 percent in Mexico. Canadian support increased 6 percent from 1988 to 1992, while U.S. support declined 18 percent and Mexican support declined 63 percent. Average annual support in these countries over 1982-92 varied from negative for Mexican dairy, beef, and egg producers, up to 57 percent or more of receipts for Canadian dairy, U.S. sugar, and Mexican corn and barley
