摘要：An examination of agricultural trade rules, evolving patterns of food trade,
and the economic effects of reducing global tariffs reveal a number of issues
specific to market access for high-value foods. For processed products, in
particular, the protective effect of tariffs can be magnified when lower tariffs
are levied on primary products (¡°tariff escalation¡±). The practice of levying
low or zero tariffs on imports of primary products, with tariffs increasing as
the level of processing increases, continues to be an enduring feature of
many countries¡¯ tariff regimes.
