"Chapter 11A: Protection and Support - Agricultural Domestic Support"
by Puangchit, Pattawee, Erwin Corong and Angel Aguiar


Abstract
This chapter documents how the domestic support levels are retrieved from the OECD Producer Support Estimate (PSE) and incorporated into the GTAP Data Base.
A variety of government policy measures may affect the domestic market price of a commodity, including measures imposed at the border, such as tariffs and export subsidization, as well as quotas on imports or exports. Domestic market interventions may include direct price administration and public stock-holding. All these policy interventions alter the domestic market price of a commodity compared to its border price.
The key principles that determine the scope of policy measures to be considered in the estimation and measurement of agricultural support are:
— Transfers are generated to agricultural producers, irrespective of the nature, objectives or impacts
— Transfers are measured in gross terms, without accounting for any adjustments which producers may make to receive the support, e.g. to meet compliance requirements
— Transfers to individual producers are measured at the farm gate level
