Sugar and related sweetener markets

the long version

"Sugar is a major crop for many less developed countries, but major barriers exist to its international trade. Both the EU and the USA distort the world sugar market through various internal policies and with the growth in production of other sweeteners, such as high fructose corn syrup, the controversy surrounding international sweetener markets has further increased." "This book addresses these issues and reviews world sweetener markets, with particular chapters devoted to key players such as the USA and EU, as well as other producers such as Australia, Brazil Cuba, Eastern Europe and India. Topics including international trade negotiations, trade liberalization, US policy reform, and regional integration in Latin America and the Caribbean are also addressed. The book will be of significant interest to those involved in agricultural and trade economics, as well as the sugar industry."--Jacket.
