Given all those determinants of comparative advantage, it is not surprising that when economies are ranked according to their revealed comparative advantage in food and agricultural products, the ranking is not even close to that by per capita GDP. Table1 ranks APEC economies by their farm trade specialization index, defined as exports minus imports of food and agricultural products as a ratio of export plus imports of those goods. That index spans the range +1 to -1, suggesting a country has a stronger agricultural comparative advantage (or disadvantage) the closer its index value is to +1 (or -1).... In PAGE 28: ... It remains to be seen whether the next WTO round of agricultural trade negotiations, due to start 2000, is able to bring down those rates of protection significantly.
