Leaders of Western Hemisphere countries have agreed to negotiate a Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) agreement by 2005. FTAA's objective is to promote economic growth and democracy by eliminating barriers to trade in all goods (including agricultural and food products) and services, and to facilitate investment. If diplomats reach agreement, free trade in the hemisphere could occur by 2020. Negotiations on FTAA's agriculture component have become contentious. FTAA's negotiating objectives for agriculture call for removing tariffs and other barriers to agricultural imports in each country, developing disciplines on the use of export subsidies and other mechanisms that distort agricultural trade, and ensuring that rules on food safety and animal and plant health are not used as disguised trade barriers. Following an agreed-upon timetable, FTAA countries during 2003 exchanged detailed offers and counteroffers designed to reduce and eliminate tariffs and quotas on all traded goods. The agriculture chapter in the second draft consolidated text of an FTAA agreement issued in November 2002 continues to reflect differences in viewpoints among countries on substantive agricultural issues. Strong differences currently exist between the United States and Brazil over how to address in the FTAA the issue of domestic farm subsidies and agricultural export subsidies. This issue has become pivotal in efforts to reach an agreement on FTAA's scope (comprehensive or scaled back) in the period leading up to the FTAA Ministerial in Miami on November 17-21. Much of U.S. agricultural trade with Canada and Mexico already occurs free of barriers under the North American Free Trade Agreement. Accordingly, an FTAA would primarily affect U.S. agricultural trade with the countries of South America, Central America, and the Caribbean. Sales to these three markets currently account for a small share (8%) of U.S. farm product exports. Agricultural imports from these three regions, by contrast, account for 17% of all such U.S. imports. A 1998 U.S. Department of Agriculture analysis finds that U.S. agriculture would benefit to some degree with U.S. participation in an FTAA that eliminates all tariffs throughout the region. According to this analysis, U.S. farm income would be $180 million (1%) higher than without an agreement, U.S. agricultural exports would increase by $580 million (1%), and U.S. agricultural imports would rise by $830 million (3%). Some agricultural product sectors expecting to gain from increased sales are supportive of the FTAA initiative. Others appear to be ambivalent, preferring instead that the Bush Administration place more emphasis on liberalizing agricultural trade on a multilateral basis under the WTO. Producers of import-sensitive food products (i.e., sugar and orange juice) are concerned about increased competition. They seek to be excluded from FTAA coverage or be covered by the longest transition periods possible. Under trade law, the Executive Branch must follow special consultation procedures with Congress on import-sensitive agricultural products covered by the FTAA agreement. This report will be updated periodically .

The face of international trade is continuing to change rapidly. But while much attention is focused on where, post-Cancun, any new international negotiations under the auspices of the WTO may go, there are other developments of potentially equal importance. The United States, in particular, is prioritizing new regional trade agreements. This book focuses on the most ambitious of these negotiations -- the Free Trade Area of the Americas Agreement, which is due to be completed in 2005. This US initiative aims to replicate the NAFTA Agreement (which has bound the US, Canada and Mexico into a free trade area since 1994) across all 34 countries of South and North America (bar Cuba). This huge continental market is to be built around US-defined notions of free trade and protection of foreign investment, but will exclude the free movement of labour. This volume explains the origins and process of the negotiations -- both the complicated multilateral discussions and the bilateral agreements that have already been drafted. It explains in detail: * US strategy. * The structures and procedures of the Agreement. * The possible consequences for South America, including: Mercosur; Brazil, as Latin America's largest economy; and the region's many small economies, which cannot possibly compete on a level playing field with the US behemoth. * The wider implications of the FTAA for the global trading system, in particular for China, Japan and the EU. This book -- the first comprehensive, in-depth study of the FTAA -- will be of use to trade specialists, international economists, and all those interested in the FTAA, about which very little information is readily available in the public domain.
