Description: Widespread agricultural policy reform would undoubtedly improve global economic welfare but would also produce a complex pattern of economic winners and losers. Using a combination of global, national and household level analysis, this study examines such distributional implications focusing especially on differences in policy effects among countries and between different sectoral and household constituencies within countries.  Case study summaries are included for Brazil, Italy, Malawi, Mexico, and the United States.
Notes: "The study was carried out by the OECD Directorate for Food, Agriculture and Fisheries. The principal authors are Joe Dewbre and Jonathan Brooks"--Foreword.
