Abstract

This chapter considers — with alphabetical but not algebraic detail — the impact on the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) of the European Union (EU) of the Uruguay Round Agreement on Agriculture (URAA), which is monitored and administered by the secretariat of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) as successor to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). There are of course a number of other direct pressures upon the Policy — notably budgetary cost, market distortions and possible EU enlargement into Central Europe — which are likely to enforce some sort of change on the CAP even if the Agreement had never been signed. The interaction between these various pressures needs to be considered.
