Agricultural trade and poverty in Chile: a spatial analysis of product tradability
通过构建地方农业可贸易性指数，分析智利各区域农产品参与国际贸易的程度与贫困率的关系，发现可贸易性越高，贫困率越低。
Abstract Many questions have arisen about the relationship between international agricultural trade and poverty in developing countries. This article explores these questions by analyzing local agricultural tradability indices, which measure the degree to which commodities produced in a particular region are traded internationally. Data are examined for Chile, a middle‐income country with a history of international agricultural trade over the last decades. Empirical results indicate that a higher agricultural tradability index is associated with lower poverty rates across Chilean comunas.
