Abstract

We are on the brink of yet another series of multilateral trade negotiations. Agriculture is likelyonce again to be both a central topic for discussion and a major cause of contention. This paperattempts to look forward to the talks on agriculture. In the first section of the paper, the case ismade for embarking on what many consider a risky venture, the further liberalization ofagricultural markets. Then the climate in which the talks will take place is compared to that of theUruguay Round in 1986. A third section of the paper outlines the broad strategy that is likely tobe adopted by countries in the negotiations, and this is followed by a section that explores theways in which the negotiations could be conducted. A final section raises the issue of timing andprocedures.
