Working Paper

Rethinking trade rules to achieve a more climate resilient agriculture

Rethinking trade rules to achieve a more climate resilient agriculture

Recent attention has focused on “repurposing” and redirecting agricultural support programs towards achieving environmental, climate and nutritional outcomes. Under these proposals, typically equivalent levels of subsidies and other forms of government support would be focused on the reducing GHG emissions, environmental externalities and other broader public policy objectives such as improving nutrition. But questions arise as to whether new support programs would necessarily be consistent with WTO disciplines. This paper examines various measures aimed at reducing GHG emissions including imposition of carbon standards and taxes, border measures to reduce slippage, and so-called “Climate Smart” domestic support measures and considers how such measures comport with WTO trade rules.
