本文构建了2006-2012年50个国家农药最大残留限量（MRLs）的原始面板，研究了MRLs监管的异质性对双边贸易的影响。我们发现，当出口商在国外面临更严格的监管时，监管异质性会在广泛的边际上减少贸易，这表明进入目的地市场的合规成本。然而，值得注意的是，我们也发现强有力的证据表明，监管异质性增加了来自制定最严格标准的国家的出口的密集边际贸易，暗示了这种监管的积极信息效应。
Constructing an original panel on Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs) in pesticides for 50 countries over 2006-2012, this paper studies the effect of heterogeneity in MRL regulation on bilateral trade. We find evidence of regulatory heterogeneity diminishing trade at the extensive margin when the exporter faces more stringent regulation abroad, suggesting compliance costs in entering the destination market. Significantly, however, we also find strong evidence of regulatory heterogeneity increasing trade at the intensive margin for exports coming from countries that set the strictest standards, alluding to the positive informative effect of such regulation.
