Forestry Residues

In common with those of other regions, the major wastes of the European Community (EC) that may be regarded as potential sources of lignocellulose are animal manures, crop and forestry residues, domestic and industrial solid wastes and waste paper. The availability reflects the agricultural policy under the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) as well as the shortfall in timber production within the EC. Significant regional differences exist due to variations in climate and both agricultural and industrial practices. Of particular importance in future will be policy in respect of land use and/or steps taken to reduce agricultural surpluses.

Redistributive Effects

- This note reviews a recent volume edited by Swinnen on the "political economy" of the 2003 reform of the Common agricultural policy in discussing the prospects for further reform in the post-2013 period. The 2003 reform was a product of elite decision- making, and its success was due in part to the deliberate attempt to limit its redistributive effects across member states. It is already clear that the post-2013 Cap will be accompanied by a redistribution towards the new member states, and this will increase the willingness of the older member states to countenance reform.

Agreement On Agriculture

By far the most significant recent developments in the field of agriculture stem from the Uruguay Round concluded in Marrakesh on 15 April 1994. Subject to ratification by all signatories, the Final Act and the WTO Agreement may be expected to complement the MacSharry reforms1 in leading to substantial changes in the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP).2 Of special importance are the Agreement on Agriculture and the Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures.3 The same may be said of the International Dairy Arrangement4 and of the Arrangement regarding Bovine Meat negotiated bilaterally with Uruguay.5 All these agreements have been approved on behalf of the European Community with regard to matters falling within its competence.6
