Abstract:

This paper deals with an issue of measuring and reducing the level of agricultural domestic support within the provisions of the WTO in developed countries. The emphasis is put on the analysis of the implementation process of the Uruguay Round Agreement on Agriculture in the field of domestic support, as well as on explaining its impact on the agricultural policy in chosen countries. It also presents an alternative way of measuring the domestic support using popular PSE index compiled by the OECD. Finally, it suggests some improvements in the way the trade distorting programmes might be assessed, which might increase the efficiency of the future agricultural agreements within the Doha Round.
