General Overview: What is ATPSM?
• Agricultural Trade Policy Simulation Model• Computable international trade model• Analyse agricultural trade policy issues• Quantify economic effects
- unilateral changes- multilateral changes
• Comprehensive database
![Page 3: ATPSM Agricultural Trade Policy Simulation Model Lucian Cernat International Trade Division United Nations Conference on Trade and Development](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070410/56649ece5503460f94bdbc3f/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
ATPSM: Main theoretical features
• Multi-country partial equilibrium model• System of equations for supply, demand, trade flows• Static model, no stochastic shocks or uncertainty• No time dimension, but some assumptions on demand
(short-term) and supply response (long-term)• No cross-sectoral effects from agriculture to other
economic sectors• Considers interrelationships between different
commodities (e.g. when competing for land)

ATPSM: Main theoretical features (2)
• Three agents: producers, consumers, government• Prices in the model
– No account of domestic trade margins– Domestic: producer and wholesale prices– World price
• Specific and mixed tariffs, export subsidies, etc. are expressed as AVEs
• Quota rents: assumed to be captured by exporters• Data limitations:
– no policy data for some developing countries– Modelled as price takers– Some applied and bound tariffs are missing

Features of ATPSM: Trade Policies Specified
• Global import quota• Bound in-quota tariff rates• Bound out-of-quota tariff rates• Distribution of quota rents• Applied tariff rates• Export subsidies• Domestic support• Two-way trade
Two tier tariff structure

Coverage of ATPSM
• 175 countries• EU-15 one region• Detailed trade policy data for
141 countries• 35 agricultural commodities

Trade Policy Questions
• Impact of reductions in bound out-of-quota tariff rates in all developed countries on- trade flows- export revenues - tariff revenues
• Impact of reductions in export subsidies on- world market prices - net food importers
• Impact of possible WTO agreements on developing countries
