The agri-monetary system and agricultural trade flows within the EC
研究了欧共体农业货币体系(如货币补偿金额取消)对成员国间农产品贸易的影响,以西德从法国进口小麦为例,发现该体系确实影响贸易流动。
Despite self-sufficiency exceeding 100 percent, West Germany has continued to import wheat from its EC partners. One factor which may play a role in these flows is the agri-monetary system. In a comparative static framework, hypotheses are formulated regarding the impact of agri-monetary changes, for example monetary compensatory amount dismantling, on intra-EC trade flows. These hypotheses are tested using data on West German wheat imports from France. Based on the results, it is not possible to reject the hypothesis that the agri-monetary system has an influence on agricultural trade flows in the European Community.
