HILE developments in agricultural trade in this decade have VW Vbeen reasonably favorable, the underlying trend and some recent developments suggests a very difficult and dangerous period ahead in the 1970's. The results of the Kennedy Round trade negotiations were clearly beneficial for certain commodities. Agricultural trade has generally been increasing. Among the OECD countries, which are the major trading countries, it increased by 6.5 percent per annum from 1960 through 1967 [5]. But in spite of this overall progress, some of the general problems raised by other writers in the recent past are even more threatening now [2, 4]; and there are technological and policy developments that add new complex dimensions. All countries were aware of the need to provide for expanding trade opportunities for agriculture during the course of the Kennedy Round. However, the substantive negotiating sessions in agriculture came too close to the end of the Kennedy Round talks to allow time for negotiating fundamental changes in access to markets or in national farm policies. The liberalization that took place was therefore modest in character.
