| description |
Primary agriculture in the developed economies is increasingly subject to environmental,
human, plant and animal health and animal welfare regulations. Research in this volume was
motivated by the use of cross compliance as a means of harmonizing enforcement of these
types of regulations in the EU. Cross compliance makes the receipt of farm support
payments contingent on meeting regulatory standards. In general, compliance with
regulation gives rise to increased costs at the farm level. A commonly expressed concern, by
EU farmers but also by farmers in other jurisdictions, is that compliance with regulations
has adverse effects on competitiveness and ultimately on farm business viability. As
agriculture is increasingly integrated into global trade liberalization, differentials in national
regulatory compliance costs, potentially, can have significant effects on trade flows.
Comparisons of regulatory compliance costs, even comparison of regulatory standards,
across jurisdictions, is complex. Different polities operating with differing constitutional
allocations of authorities, can have different agencies or even levels of government being
responsible for different categories of regulations and standards. It is not uncommon for the
farming industry in any particular jurisdiction, in the face of these challenges, to perceive
the standards that it is required to meet as higher than those which its competitors must
achieve. This volume investigates the cost implications and competitiveness effects
resulting from regulations and standards in the fields of environment, health and animal
welfare and production-linked rules of „good agricultural conditions‟ for a range of
agricultural products.
The book is the product of an international collaboration among researchers from the
EU, North America and New Zealand. The work presented in this volume has been
(co-)funded by the project „Facilitating the CAP reform: Compliance and competitiveness
of European agriculture‟ (EU 6th
Framework Programme for Research, Technological
Development and Demonstration, Priority 8.1, contract no. SSPE-CT-2005-006489). In
addition to chapters based on research conducted under this project, we have solicited
additional chapters to enrich the range of perspectives in the volume. The content of this
book does not represent the official position of the European Commission and is entirely
under the responsibility of the authors.
Collaboration on this project has increased our understanding as researchers of the
range of modalities and forms of environmental regulation that are being applied to
agriculture in the developed countries. We also came to appreciate the importance of
differences in production systems and in environmental, social and economic pressures
impinging on agriculture in the countries considered in the study. We are grateful to the
European Commission for their financial support for this research. |
