Agricultural tariffs have proved one of the most difficult areas under World Trade Organization (WTO) negotiations but, the Economic Research Service argues here, tariff reductions that improve market access are key to achieving the benefits of trade liberalisation. Research by the ERS suggests that: as a group, developing countries should gain from cuts in bound tariffsin general, the trade gains from preferential trade programmes tend to be concentrated among higher income developing countries, which include some of the world’s largest agricultural tradersless developed countries (LDCs) are expected to be more vulnerable to increased competition if bound tariffs are cutThese webpages set out the basic outlines of the argument for reducing tariffs, provides links to additional resources and comments on the likely impacts of proposed reduction methods. Links are also provided to the two reports from which this article is drawn.

Immunoassays for biotechnology engineered proteins are used by AgBiotech companies at numerous points in product development and by feed and food suppliers for compliance and contractual purposes. Although AgBiotech companies use the technology during product development and seed production, other stakeholders from the food and feed supply chains, such as commodity, food, and feed companies, as well as third-party diagnostic testing companies, also rely on immunoassays for a number of purposes. The primary use of immunoassays is to verify the presence or absence of genetically modified (GM) material in a product or to quantify the amount of GM material present in a product. This article describes the fundamental elements of GM analysis using immunoassays and especially its application to the testing of grains. The 2 most commonly used formats are lateral flow devices (LFD) and plate-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). The main applications of both formats are discussed in general, and the benefits and drawbacks are discussed in detail. The document highlights the many areas to which attention must be paid in order to produce reliable test results. These include sample preparation, method validation, choice of appropriate reference materials, and biological and instrumental sources of error. The article also discusses issues related to the analysis of different matrixes and the effects they may have on the accuracy of the immunoassays.
