Abstract: This report analyzes the nature of the Government of Pakistan's policy interventions in the agricultural sector using producer and consumer subsidy equivalents (PSE's and CSE's). It outlines the Government's position toward the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations under the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and possible changes in Pakistan's policies if trade were liberalized. Commodities examined are cotton, wheat, basmati rice, and coarse rice.
