Agricultural Policy Monitoring and Evaluation 2020
This annual report monitors and evaluates agricultural policies spanning all six continents, including the 37 OECD countries, the five non-OECD EU Member States, and 12 emerging economies. It is a unique source of up-to date estimates of support to agriculture using a comprehensive system of measuring and classifying support to agriculture – the Producer and Consumer Support Estimates (PSEs and CSEs), the General Services Support Estimate (GSSE) and related indicators – which provide insight into the increasingly complex nature of agricultural policy and serve as a basis for OECD’s agricultural policy monitoring and evaluation. Comprehensive country chapters and the Statistical Annex containing detailed background tables with indicators of agricultural support are available in electronic form on the publication website.

New Zealand
Since the reform of its agricultural policies in the mid-1980s, production and trade distorting policies have almost disappeared in New Zealand, and the level of support to agricultural producers has been the lowest among OECD countries. Over the past decade, this support has consistently accounted for less than 1% of farm receipts, and practically all prices are aligned with world market prices. Exceptions are fresh poultry and table eggs (as well as some bee products) which cannot be imported to New Zealand due to the absence of Import Health Standards for these products (required for risk products to be allowed for imports). Some support for on-farm services mainly related to animal health, and for disaster relief, provide additional producer support to a small extent.
