Provides an analysis of the evolution and trends of the agricultural sector and its four main subsectors: agriculture, livestock, forestry, and fishing and aquaculture. Addresses rural well-being and agricultural and rural institutions. Highlights the price volatility and its causes and future uncertainties as a relevant factor to be considered by decision-makers in the sector.
This study analyzes the significance of new economic context in Latin America and the Caribbean for the design of policies for the agricultural sector. In addition, it analyzes and assesses recent trends in agricultural development policy in Latin America, to identify and synthesize new policy directions, and to highlight emerging challenges and avenues for policy innovation. The main conclusion of the study is that Latin American agricultural and rural development policy is at a turning point that will require bold new initiatives to improve the production performance of agriculture, reduce rural poverty, protect the natural resource base of the sector and ensure the political sustainability of economic growth. This will require a pro-active set of interventions designed at restoring the specificity of sectoral agricultural policy while maintaining consistency with the macro reforms.--Publisher's description.
