PIM Seminar Series: Measuring policy distortions along agricultural value chains 10/17/2018 -

Policy distortions to agricultural incentives can affect different value chain actors in different ways. For example, an export tax may help domestic maize consumers by decreasing the price of maize and increasing the availability of supply in the domestic market, but such a policy may hurt smallholder producers by decreasing their profit margins. In this webinar, Dr. Simla Tokgoz (IFPRI) is sharing new research findings on the analysis of policy distortions to agricultural incentives along selected value chains in four countries: Ethiopia, India, Nigeria, and Tanzania.
