Summary:
The aim of this new publication is to present a comprehensive review of recent national and international policy developments relating to basic food commodity markets. This first issue of the report covers policy changes in the production, consumption, marketing and trade of cereals, oilcrops and meats. The report is to be produced on a yearly basis, and replaces the annual Cereal policies review which covered policy changes for wheat, rice and coarse grains. The policy information contained in the report is taken from country responses to FAO questionnaires and from publicly available sources. It is hoped that the information provided will be of use to policy-makers, researchers and others concerned with the broader issues of agricultural development and food security.
