The continuing process of globalisation and regionalisation bears implications for farmers and the agricultural policies in developing and developed countries. An assessment of agricultural policy impacts is bound to be complex and is often supported by quantitative modelling analysis. The article provides an assessment of the present state of applied modelling in the agricultural policies. This article reports the results of an analysis that examined different policy measures providing support to producers in terms of their effects on a selection of indicators. It sets out a conceptual framework for understanding the links among these two broad phenomena, and then discusses emerging issues in developing countries and the subsequent effects on the farms incomes. This article is an empirical cross-country analysis based on the data from 1990 to 2005 according to the methodology of the OECD. The paper pays attention on differences in the agricultural policies using multiple instruments in developed and developing countries as well as the distributional effects of transfers' impact on domestic price, supply and farm income. The author has examined the role of economic development in the framework of agricultural support policies.
