Abstract

Głównym celem artykułu jest identyfikacja procesu konwergencji w zakresie wydajności pracy w rolnictwie w regionalnych ugrupowaniach handlowych Ameryki Północnej (NAFTA), Środkowej (CACM) i Południowej (Mercosur). Analizę przeprowadzono na tle kształtowania się intensywności wewnątrzregionalnego handlu rolno-żywnościowego tych ugrupowań. Do oszacowania dysproporcji międzyregionalnych w poziomie wydajności pracy w rolnictwie analizowanych ugrupowań wykorzystano współczynnik σ-konwergencji. Ocenę efektów zmian w przepływach handlowych w ramach poszczególnych ugrupowań oparto na wskaźnikach regionalnych współzależności, takich jak: udział handlu wewnątrzregionalnego, wskaźnik intensywności handlu wewnątrzregionalnego oraz symetryczny wskaźnik introwersji handlu. Zakres czasowy badania obejmuje lata 1980–2010. Przeprowadzone analizy dowiodły, że konwergencja wydajności pracy miała miejsce jedynie w Mercosur. Jednocześnie intensywność wewnątrzregionalnego handlu rolno-żywnościowego rosła wolniej niż handlu zewnątrzregionalnego, czemu towarzyszył wzrost udziału tego ugrupowania w handlu światowym. W pozostałych analizowanych ugrupowaniach stopniowemu wzmacnianiu regionalnego ukierunkowania handlu rolno-żywnościowego nie towarzyszyły zmiany w poziomie wskaźnika konwergencji bądź występował proces dywergencji w zakresie wydajności pracy w rolnictwie.
