Agricultural Trade Policy and Food Security in the Caribbean: Structural Issues, Multilateral Negotiations and Competiveness

Agricultural trade has been and continues to be a major factor determining food security outcomes in Caribbean countries. In these small open economies, exports are essential to income-earning opportunities, while imports provide a large component of the food supply. This book examines various dimensions of trade policy and related issues of relevance to the countries in the region and presents policy instruments to address trade and food security and rural development linkages. It will serve as a useful guide and reference documents for agricultural trade policy analysts, trade negotiators, policy-makers and planners in both the public and private sectors.
