Abstract: The present Report offers suggestions for the consideration of the Government of India, based on the UN Millennium Goals for Poverty Eradication, as well as on the principle that trade should strengthen and not erode the livelihoods of small farmers and farm and plantation labour. That farming constitutes the backbone of the livelihood security system of predominantly agricultural and rural economies should be recognized in the re-negotiated AoA. In order to prevent industrialized countries from giving huge subsidies to their farmers under various pretexts, we have suggested a transparent code of conduct with reference to trade distorting subsidies.
