Prospects for EC Agricultural Trade with Developing Countries

Alexander H Sarris

European Review of Agricultural Economics, 1989, vol. 16, issue 2, 169-86

Abstract: Analysis of EC trade in fifty-seven agricultural products, with thirty-six of the most important developing countries, reveals that an EC import expansion would significantly benefit the exports of these countries in most products. An index of EC-wide resistance to import expansion is subsequently defined and estimated for all products. The results suggest that, for the major products of export interest to developing countries, the EC market is very resistant to nongrowth-induced expansion of extra-EC imports.
