Food security:
• National level - supply & trade
• HH level – access to food [requires (farm) income]
• Individual level – nutrition security, sufficient calories of
sufficient quality
Caloric availability has gone up 30% since 60s
No. malnourished children from 46% to 31% in
developing countries (from 1970 to 97)
Food prices ½ or less compared to 60s/70s

1960s to about $500 billion today
In fisheries, global supply shifts from developed
to developing countries. Developing country
exports rose 8%/yr 1976–2002, half of all fish
exports now originate from these countries
(~$60 billion)

30. INDONESIA – FULL LIBERALIZATION
IFPRI
Under FLIB, direction & magnitude of responds
depends on degree of protection of farmers /
taxation of consumers compared to other
countries, and on the respective supply/demand
elasticities
In the case of Indonesia, full worldwide trade
liberalization does lead to a relative decline in
local production and a relative increase in
domestic demand, which shows that without
liberalization, the country is protecting local
farmers while hurting domestic consumers

32. FULL LIBERALIZATION - BENEFITS
IFPRI Current trade distortions displace $40 billion of
developing country exports
If trade distortions were removed, estimates
range from 40 [Anderson] -500 [Cline] million
people [out of about 2500 million] being lifted out
of poverty within 15 years or so
Poverty would increase in some countries, but
decline in others [f.ex. Decline in poverty by
3.5% in Indonesia]
Trade alone is not sufficient to lift them out of
poverty

34. TRADE IN VIRTUAL WATER
IFPRI
Virtual water = the amount of water used in the
production of agricultural commodities—and in
other sectors
Food importing countries indirectly purchase
water resources from exporting countries ,
thereby saving water they would have used
Global water savings occur when exporters are
more water efficient than importers
Global irrigation water savings occur when
exporters produce under rainfed conditions,
while importers would have used irrigation
otherwise

37. TRADE IN VIRTUAL WATER
IFPRI
In 1995, 7% of total crop evaporation and 5% of
irrigation water depletion was used to produce
cereal crops for export
In 2025 this will rise to 8% and 5%, respectively
Trade saves limited (irrigation) water: cereal
water use would only be 6% higher without
virtual water trade & ca. 20% of cereal trade
may be water related – thus water scarcity
currently plays a modest role in trade pattern -
expected to rise to 38% by 2025 for cereals
Instead other factors, like subsidies, and trade
arrangements determine trade outcomes
Theme 5
38. TRADE IN VIRTUAL WATER
IFPRI
Estimated Cereal ET total:
- 2622 km3 (1995)
- 2758 km3 (2025)
Savings due to trade:
- 190 km3 (1995)
- 355 km3 (2025)
Savings due to water productivity (IE)
improvement over the period 1995-2025:
- 1215 km3
Water productivity improvements are
more important than trade

40. BACKGROUND ON MFA
IFPRI
Established in 1974 to partially [~40%]
protect the textile and apparel industries of
developed countries from the low-cost
competition of T&A (textiles and apparel
[more]) from developing countries [originally
Japan] in the form of quantitative restrictions
Trade shifted to Asian NICs quota system,
production to India/China, Nepal/
Bangladesh /Mauritius [no concentration]
raised prices and depressed consumption
depressed fiber crop production (implicit tax
Theme 5
of 20% vs. manmade fibers)
41. OTHER IMPORTANT FACTORS
IFPRI
• High tariffs: 10-20% for textiles; 20-40% for clothing
(2nd after agriculture)
• Other trade arrangements matter (NAFTA, EU-EE,
Caribbean, etc.)
• NTB (labeling, customs regulations..)
• High income elasticity (~0.9), growth in domestic
consumption developing countries
• Few restrictions on cotton, share in fiber production
continues to decline
• Post-9/11 security measures, f.ex. C-TPAT
(Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism),
integration: China, India, Pakistan & USA

46. THUS, END OF MFA
IFPRI
Greater concentration and vertical
integration – cotton China, India &
Pakistan – small impacts on food/water;
Largest impact through direct incomes in
T&A industries, thus indirectly on food and
water through lack of purchasing power
Theme 5
48. CONCLUSIONS
IFPRI
Forces outside of the water sector are
changing water management rapidly today
and into the future – they include
globalization, trade, and climate change
High subsidies to agriculture (& subsidies to
water infrastructure) bring inefficiencies into
trade, food production, and water use, thus
lead to wastage, and contribute to water
scarcity, poverty, and food insecurity
‘Unproductive’ subsidies should be invested
in ‘productive’ investments, such as
Theme 5
infrastructure and technologies, R&D
49. CONCLUSIONS
IFPRI
Water endowments currently have a
limited explanatory power for food and
other (indirect) water trade
Overall, trade, if not distorted, and
globalization will help the poor increasing
food and water availabilities
Need for complementary investment and
social policies for poverty alleviation and
food security
Theme 5
50. INVESTMENTS NEEDED IN
IFPRI
Additional water investment in developing
countries, public supply / wastewater, &
irrigation [including large dams]
Establish well-defined water rights, flexible
enough to allow trading
Design water pricing mechanisms to pay
irrigators to use less water
Eliminate power subsidies to groundwater
pumping
Invest in crop breeding for drought, heat, and
saline tolerance
Invest in research on water management,
Theme 5
including low tillage, rainwater harvesting
