Abstract
This article summarizes the lessons from a study of agricultural trade and price policy in 18 countries over a 25-year period. Agriculture h as typically been subject to high levels of government intervention, a nd judging the sweep and sequencing of reforms is a complex task. The author offers guide-lines for a new agricultural trade strategy which could address these issues.
