As is the case each year, the present new edition of CIHEAM annual report offers a detailed panorama of the most recent developments in the agricultural economies and in the agri-food sectors of the Mediterranean states which are members of CIHEAM. It also studies the various scenarios with regard to the economic problems and international trade of those sectors. The year 2003 was marked by three major events - the reform of the CAP, the enlargement of the European Union, and the crisis in the World Trade Organisation, which emerged at the Cancun Conference. Such was the context chosen to observe, study, analyse and understand the current changes in Mediterranean agriculture and the role which the agricultural sector plays both in each individual country and in the region as a whole. At the meeting of the Ministers of Agriculture and Fisheries of the European and Mediterranean countries, an event which took place in Venice from 27 to 29 November 2003, all of those administrators called upon the CIHEAM to clarify the role which agriculture, fisheries and food can play in the effort to build up a Euro-Mediterranean area of trade and solidarity and in the consolidation of a Mediterranean identity in the food sector at the world level. It is our ambition to accommodate that request, and we trust that the present sixth report reflects that ambition.
