Agricultural policies shape food security, rural development, and global trade. They use instruments like price supports and subsidies to boost productivity and stabilize farm incomes. These policies impact markets, often creating advantages for subsidized producers while challenging smallholder farmers in developing countries.
Trade agreements aim to reduce barriers in agriculture, offering opportunities and challenges for developing nations. Fair trade models provide alternatives, guaranteeing minimum prices and funding community projects. While these approaches promote sustainability, their limited market share restricts their overall impact on global agricultural trade.
