Revisiting NAFTA: Implications for U.S. Agricultural Markets

Revisiting NAFTA: Implications for U.S. Agricultural Markets | L'ECHO DEMETER | Scoop.it
In recent months, a lot of attention has been given to the importance of trade between the United States, Mexico and Canada since the Trump Administration began talking about potentially renegotiating NAFTA. That attention is more than deserved, especially for U.S. agriculture. We intend to explore the agreement’s impact on U.S. agriculture in a series of articles providing a commodity-by-commodity analysis of the impact of NAFTA on trade flows. We will begin this NAFTA series by reviewing the trade in all agricultural commodities.

Le changement climatique impactera négativement la productivité agricole aux États-Unis

Le changement climatique impactera négativement la productivité agricole aux États-Unis | L'ECHO DEMETER | Scoop.it

Une étude récente, publiée dans la revue PNAS, s'intéresse à l'impact du climat sur la productivité de l'agriculture américaine. Pour ce faire, des chercheurs américains et chinois ont mesuré, entre 1951 et 2010, les corrélations entre les variations climatiques régionales et celles de la productivité totale des facteurs (PTF), un indicateur de la productivité nationale. Cet indicateur permet de mesurer les évolutions de la production agricole qui ne dépendent pas des intrants (travail et capital). Ils ont également estimé, à l'aide de scénarios de changement climatique, la productivité agricole future des États-Unis.
