  35. Gains to Trade

  36. Exports, Imports, Farm Income • U.S. Agricultural Exports to W.H. Countries Up 8% After Full Phase-In to $600 million • U.S. Agricultural Imports from W.H. Countries Up 6% to $850 Million • U.S. Farm Income Up $200 Million/Year ERS, USDA, 2000.

  37. Sector Impacts • More Exports of Corn, Soybeans, Cotton • More Imports/Competition for Sugar, Peanuts, Citrus, Some Vegetables • FTAA Likely to $4.0 Billion to U.S. GDP/Year ERS, USDA, 2000.

  38. So What for Texas? • More Exports & Potential for Higher Prices • Access to Lower Cost Inputs • More Competition in Some Sectors • Sugar, Peanuts, Textiles, Maybe Cotton • Meats-But Sanitary Issues Critical • Winter Vegetables & Some Fruit Products: SPS Important • Opportunity for Input on Agreements as ‘Fast Track’ is Implemented

  39. Issues for Texas • Are More Trade Agreements a Desirable Outcome? • Without CAFTA & FTAA, U.S. Market Access Limited • Even with Agreements, No Guarantee of Strong Export Growth • Political & Economic Stability Disrupt Trade • With or Without Agreements, More Trade Disputes Certain
