MARKET INTEGRATION AND TRADE

The benefits of market integration are not automatic, and are not necessarily shared by all. ESA research concentrates on: the impact of international trade on agricultural and rural households; methodologies to assess these impacts; and policies and programmes which maximize the benefits of trade to the poorest households.
