摘要

"We're in deep rough with a partially obstructed shot to the green." Thus one American negotiator sums up the state of the Doha trade negotiations. You do not need to be a golfer to get his point. On December 13th, the world's trade ministers are due to gather in Hong Kong, supposedly to finalise the broad outlines of a World Trade Organisation (WTO) agreement. But despite four years of haggling, the negotiators are at loggerheads over how to free farm trade, have made scant progress on liberalising trade in services and have done virtually nothing on cutting industrial tariffs. Most attention is focused on farm trade. Although agriculture accounts for only 3% of global output and less than 10% of global trade, it is easily the most distorted sector of the world economy. Slashing trade barriers and subsidies in farming would therefore produce disproportionately large gains, particularly for poorer countries. Of all liberalising measures, cutting tariffs would bring the most benefits. According to the World Bank, over 60% of the gains that Doha promises in goods trade would come from agriculture. The vast majority of this would be won by cutting tariffs.
