- Trade Creation And Diversion Effects Of The North American Free Trade Agreement Of U.S. Sugar Imports From Mexico
- Creator:
- Devadoss, Stephen; Kropf, Jurgen
- Date Created (ISO Standard):
- 1995
- Description:
- One of the agricultural issues hotly debated during the negotiation and ratification of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was the effect of NAFTA on the U.S. sugar industry because sugar policies were one of the most sensitive and complicated agricultural policies negotiated under NAFTA. There were conflicting predictions whether NAFTA would benefit or hurt the sugar industry in the United States. For example, Sumner elaborated 'NAFTA promises positive gains' for the U.S. sugar industry because: a) access to the Mexican market will improve; b) U.S. production is more efficient than that of Mexico; and c) higher income growth in Mexico resulting from NAFTA will stimulate consumption of sugar.
