Consortium on Trade Research: Agricultural Trade Policy Issues in the Eighties, Current Research, and Long-term Forecasting

摘要

Domestic agricultural policy and trade policy are closely linked. Thus, research, including long-term forecasting activities, must take into account the domestic as well as international implications of trade policy issues. The seventh meeting of the Consortium on Trade Research in June 23-24, 1983, in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, focused on the problems facing international agricultural trade in the eighties; current research efforts at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agriculture Canada, and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Secretariat; and the status, problems, and applications of long-term forecasting models.
