MEMBERS' PARTICIPATION IN THE NORMAL GROWTH OF  
WORLD TRADE IN AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS -  
ARTICLE 18.5 OF THE AGREEMENT ON AGRICULTURE  
 
Note by the Secretariat
1 
 
Revision  
  
1. Article 18.5 of the Agreement on Agriculture  provides that "Members agree to consult 
annually in the Committee on Agriculture with respect  to their participation in the normal growth of 
world trade in agricultural products within the framework of the commit ments on export subsidies 
under this Agreement."  According to the Committee's Working Procedures these consultations are to 
be undertaken at the November meetings of the Committee (G/AG/1, paragraph 17). 
2. The present note updates the information cont ained in document G/AG/W/32/Rev.9 provided 
by the Secretariat for the purposes of the Article 18.5 consultations undertaken by the Committee. 
3. The attached tables contain, for selected expor ters and selected agricultural products/product 
groups, data on export volumes (includi ng food aid) and shares in world exports.  The statistics cover 
the Uruguay Round base period for export subsidy re duction commitments, i.e. 1986-90, as well as 
the period comprised between 1998 and the most recent y ear for which data are av ailable.  In addition, 
the charts show the world market shares of th e leading exporters for the products/product groups 
concerned. 
4. The following 13 products/product gr oups are covered by this note: 
- wheat/wheat flour (pages 4-6) 
- coarse grains (pages 7-9) - rice (pages 10-12) - sugar (pages 13-16) - skim milk powder (pages 17-19) 
- butter and butter oil (pages 20-22) 
- cheese (pages 23-25) - whole milk powder
2 (pages 26-28) 
- bovine meat (pages 29-31) - pigmeat (pages 32-34) 
- poultry meat (pages 35-37) 
- oilseeds (pages 38-40) - fruit and vegetables (pages 41-45). 
                                                     
 
1 This document has been prepared  under the Secretariat's own respon sibility and is without prejudice 
to the positions of Members or to their rights or obligations under the WTO. 
2 Whole milk powder is, in terms of world trade, the main product within the product group "other milk 
products" in respect of which a number of Members have export subsidy reduction commitments. G/AG/W/32/Rev.10

  5. The table below shows the aggregate export values of the product categories listed in 
paragraph 4 above ("selected" agricultural products) during the base period 1986-90 and in the period 
1998 to 2005.  In addition, aggregate export values are shown for agricultural products other than the 
selected products ("other" agricultural products).  The basket of "other" agricultural products includes 
basic agricultural products, such as cocoa or wool, but also many processed products, such as cereal 
preparations or wine.  These "other" agricultural prod ucts account for slightly more than half of world 
exports of agricultural products.

Notes : 
(1) The FAO definition of total agricultural products comes cl ose, but is not identical, to  the product coverage of the 
Agreement on Agriculture as defined in Annex 1 thereto.   
(2) "Selected agricultural pr oducts" as per paragraph 4. 
(3) EC data are the FAO's estimates re ferring to the EC (12) for the base period 1986-90, to EC (15) as from 1998 and 
to the EC (25) as from 2004, and are net of intra-EC trade.

Technical Notes 
Selected product groups 
6. The market shares of the selected product grou ps listed in paragraph 4 above are based on 
export volumes, except for fruit and vegetables.  The shares of fruit and vegetables are based on 
export values. 
7. Three categories of exporters are distinguished in the tables: 
(i) WTO Members with export s ubsidy reduction commitments 
(ii) "significant exporters" (iii) others. 
8. Each of the attached tables includes all Memb ers which have, according to their Schedules, 
export subsidy reduction commitments with respect to the selected product/product group concerned.  
In addition, those Members are included which are id entified in the list of "significant exporters" for 
the purpose of the Committee's notification requirements on export subsidy commitments.
3  
Furthermore, in order to provide a more comprehens ive picture of the development of shares in world 
exports, it was considered useful to include selecte d other WTO Members and Observers, in particular 
those which have emerged as major exporters duri ng the period covered.  For each product/product 
group, exporters are ranked in descending order based on their exports in the most recent year.

  9. The product definition of the statistical data presented in this note does not necessarily match 
the product definitions used by Members for the purpose of scheduling their export subsidy commitments.  This point should be borne in mind, in particular when comparing the statistical data 
with scheduled commitment levels, subsidized e xports or total exports as reported by Members in 
accordance with the relevant notification requirement s (G/AG/2 refers).  For example, although corn 
exports are, by definition, included in the tota l for coarse grain exports, the United States' export 
subsidy reduction commitment for coarse grains  does not cover corn.  Members with reduction 
commitments on the basis of aggregate product groups  are included in the tables of each individual 
product/product group covered by the commitment.  For example, Switzerland has an export subsidy 
reduction commitment for dairy products (excluding butter) and is therefore included in the tables for 
skim milk powder and cheese but not in the table fo r butter.  Members with an agriculture-wide 
commitment are only included in the tables relatin g to products/product groups where they have 
"significant exporter" status (C osta Rica and New Zealand). 
"Other" agricultural products 
10. The world market shares of selected exporters w ith respect to "other" agricultural products are 
presented in Table 14(a).  For reasons of data availability, the exporters represent the leading 
countries in terms of total agricultural exports, not  necessarily of exports of "other" agricultural 
products. 
Data 
11. The data provided in this note are sourced fro m FAO, the International Grains Council (IGC) 
and the International Sugar Organization (ISO).  Ot her sources may produce different results in terms 
of absolute volumes and values as well as year-t o-year changes of shares in world export 
volumes/values.  This may be due to a variety of reasons, including differences with respect to product definition, reporting period (e .g. calendar year versus marketi ng year), conversion factors or 
the revision of data. 
12. The time period covered is the base period 1986-90 and 1998 until the most recent year for 
which data are available from the sources used.
4  In particular, FAO data are currently available only 
up to 2005.  For reasons of consis tency, more recent data available from other sources were not used 
to complement FAO data. 
13. The trade data of the EC as well as the aggreg ate exports (referred to as "world totals" in the 
tables) exclude intra-EC trade.   The FAO and ISO da ta for the EC refer to the EC (12) for the base 
period 1986-90, to the EC (15) from 1998 and to the EC (25) as from 2004.  It should be noted that 
the data of the IGC refer to the EC (12) for the base period, to the EC (15) as from 1996/97, to the 
EC (25) as from 2004/05 and the EC (27) as from 2006/07 (see Tables 1 and 2). 
14. The country-specific and commodity-specific explanatory notes which are contained in the 
sources are not reproduced in this note.  The symbol " – " has been used in the tables to denote not 
available or not applicable. 
                                                      
4 Data for 1991 to 1997 for Members with export subsidy reduction commitments and for "significant 
exporters" are included in previous revisions of this note.
