Agricultural Distortions Working Paper;98 |
| description |
Capitalizing on the most recent
estimates of agricultural price distortions in China and in
other countries, this paper assesses the economic and
poverty impact of global and domestic trade reform in China.
It also examines the interplay between the trade reforms and
factor market reforms aimed at improving the allocation of
labor within the Chinese economy. The results suggest that
trade reforms in the rest of the world, land reform and
hukou reform all serve to reduce poverty, while unilateral
trade reforms result in a small poverty increase.
Agricultural distortions are important factors in
determining the distributional and poverty effects of trade
reform packages, although their impacts on aggregate trade
and welfare appear to be small. A comprehensive reform
package which bundles the reforms in commodity and factor
markets together may benefit all broad household groups in China. |
