Abstract

This report describes the debt situation among eight Latin American countries and presents underlying reasons why their debt levels dramatically rose in the early 1980's. This report also analyzes the link between debt and imports of agricultural goods. An econometric model helps test whether an unexpected change in debt-service payments affects imports more than would an expected change in debt-service payments.
