THE AGREEMENT ON AGRICULTURE Sample Clauses

THE AGREEMENT ON AGRICULTURE. 3.17 As observed by the South Centre “The historical problems in agriculture continue today. Developed countries with the financial capacity continue to subsidise their farmers and export these agricultural products. This has also been enabled by the Uruguay Round through large AMS entitlements for mostly developed countries ($19 billion for US and now about $95 billion for EU27), as well as the Green Box (Annex 2 of the Agreement on Agriculture).” (South Centre, 2017).

THE AGREEMENT ON AGRICULTURE. It was clear to the negotiators of the Agreement on Agriculture that special disciplines for SPS measures were crucial and inherently linked to the attempts to liberalize trade in agricultural products. This link is made explicit in Article 14 of the Agreement on Agriculture, which states that “Members agree to give effect to the Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures.” This provision is, legally speaking, redundant, since all WTO Members are bound to give effect to all multilateral WTO agreements including the SPS Agreement. However, this provision does serve to emphasize the negotiators’ acknowledgement of the impor- tance of the disciplines in the SPS Agreement in securing the gains for agricultural trade liberalization achieved in the Agreement on Agriculture. The SPS Agreement and the Agreement on Agriculture are complementary in nature. Both have the common aim of enhancing market access in the agricultural sector by creating disciplines on trade-restrictive measures. However, the SPS Agreement covers measures affecting not only agricultural but also food products. In addition, while the Agreement on Agriculture addresses the traditional trade barriers in the agricultural sector, the SPS Agreement was negotiated to deal with trade barriers that were not covered by the disciplines of the Agreement on Agriculture, namely sanitary and phytosanitary measures. Thus, together these two agreements represent an important step forward in securing market access for food and agricultural products.
