AGREEMENT ON AGRICULTURE AND FOODAgreement on Agriculture and Food (Aoaf) • February 6th, 2019
The document proposes a rewriting of the provisions of the 1995 WTO Agreement on Agriculture (AoA) into an Agreement on Agriculture and Food (AoAF) that includes fish and preparations and will be subject to a hierarchy of norms that must respect international human, social and environmental rights agreements. The objective of the AoAF is to contribute to the food sovereignty of WTO Members, unlike the objective of the AoA to prioritize access to other Members' market in order to "provide for substantial progressive reductions in agricultural support and protection". This implies that Members shall refrain from any export dumping and from importing agricultural and food products that have the effect of violating human, social and environmental rights in exporting countries.
