Developing Country Interests in Agricultural Trade Reform
利用Tyers-Anderson全球粮食市场模型，分析工业国农业保护对发展中国家的净影响，发现整体上略有好处，但部分发展中国家（如凯恩斯集团成员）仍受损害，且从欧盟减少过剩供应的配额改革中获益有限。
Abstract This paper examines whether developing countries, as a group, would be better off in the absence of agricultural protection in the industrial North and, if so, whether they should support reforms negotiated between the major players in the Uruguay Round. Results from the Tyers‐Anderson GLS model of world food markets suggest that the net effect of industrial country agricultural protection is beneficial to developing countries, though by only a small margin, even if its removal were to stimulate accelerated technical change in developing countries. The same is found to be true of partial reforms which are more palatable politically, such as quotas to reduce oversupply in the EC. Of course, many developing countries, including those which are members of the Cairns Group, are badly hurt by protection in the North. Unfortunately, however, they and the other members of that group stand to gain comparatively little from the reduction of oversupply in the EC through quotas.
