我们考察了最近农业和食品市场显著贸易成本的演变及其构成的变化。我们审查衡量成本的方法，并为降低成本提供政策处方指导。我们关注运输成本、边境措施和类似标准的非关税措施。通过指出当前方法的局限性和最近的发展，我们的目标是提高我们对其影响的理解，并得出更清晰的处方。我们为进一步研究和调查农业贸易成本提出了有希望的方向，包括关于基因编辑和贸易、运输成本的新辩论，以及分析非关税措施的最新进展。
We examine the recent evolution of salient trade costs in agricultural and food markets, and changes in their composition. We review ways to measure costs and provide guidance with policy prescriptions to reduce them. We pay attention to transportation costs, border measures, and standard-like nontariff measures. By pointing out limitations in current approaches and recent developments, we aim to improve our understanding of their effects and derive clearer prescriptions. We suggest promising directions for further research and investigation of agricultural trade costs, including on the emerging debate on gene editing and trade, transportation costs, and mainstreaming recent advances in analyzing nontariff measures.
