Abstract
Abstract The purpose of this special issue is to examine the interplay between TTIP/TPP and the regulation of sanitary and phytosanitary practices, with a special focus on the interplay between of the trade negotiations and GMO/Non-GMO coexistence in commodity and food marketing chains. Seven articles dealing with the intersection between trade negotiations and GMO/non-GMO existence follow.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Agricultural & Food Industrial Organization (JAFIO) is a unique forum for empirical and theoretical research in industrial organization with a special focus on agricultural and food industries worldwide. As concentration, industrialization, and globalization continue to reshape horizontal and vertical relationships within the food supply chain, agricultural economists are revising both their views of traditional markets as well as their tools of analysis. At the core of this revision are strategic interactions between principals and agents, strategic interdependence between rival firms, and strategic trade policy between competing nations, all in a setting plagued by incomplete and/or imperfect information structures. Add to that biotechnology, electronic commerce, as well as the shift in focus from raw agricultural commodities to branded products, and the conclusion is that a "new" agricultural economics is needed for an increasingly complex "new" agriculture.
