Agricultural Subsidies
I am probably late in this, but it’s a blog and I never promised timely coverage.
As we all know, the agricultural subsidies given by US, EU and Japan to domestic interests hit the developing world hard. The New York Times has a series of op-eds on the topic from different countries. These op-eds do not add new information but are interesting to read and give you a flavor of agricultural trade issues from different developing countries. The series is titled “Harvesting Poverty”.
