Geographical indications are defined under the TRIPS Agreement 1994 as “indications which identify a good as originating in the territory of a Member, or a region or locality in that territory, where a given quality, reputation or other characteristic of the good is essentially attributable to its geographical origin”. Geographical indications involve a consideration of intellectual property law, international trade law, and agricultural policy. This submission will consider the intersection between these fields of regulation.This submission is a personal response to the Agreement between Australia and the European Community on Trade in Wine 2009; and a more impersonal effort to …


Cloned Meat, Voluntary Food Labeling, And Organic Oreos, Donna M. Byrne Jan 2009

Cloned Meat, Voluntary Food Labeling, And Organic Oreos, Donna M. Byrne

Faculty Scholarship

In December 2006, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that it had reviewed all the available evidence and was poised to approve meat and milk from cloned animals and their progeny. Such products, said the FDA, are virtually identical to meat or milk from a non-clone. Further, the FDA announced it would almost certainly not require food from clones to be labeled as such. Part I of this article identifies three functions that labels perform, outlines the types of information usually required, and introduces the rule that voluntary label information cannot be misleading. Part II focuses on process information …

Irina Feofanova

According to International Labour Organization (ILO) statistics, more than 70 percent of all child laborers work in agriculture. From tending cattle, harvesting crops, to handling machinery or holding flags to guide planes spraying pesticides, more than 132 million girls and boys, aged 5 to 14, help produce much of the food and drink people consume, as well as fibers and primary agricultural materials. ILO also notes that, of course, the numbers vary from country to country but it is estimated that at least 90 percent of economically active children in rural areas in developing countries are working in agriculture. However, …


Hedging To Safety: A Political Economy Of Derivatives, Risk And Agriculture In The Developing World, Sasha Coler Breger Bush Jan 2009

Hedging To Safety: A Political Economy Of Derivatives, Risk And Agriculture In The Developing World, Sasha Coler Breger Bush

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

It has become common for researchers and international development institutions to recommend the use of derivative instruments to developing country farmers and policymakers as a means of insuring agricultural incomes against the threats posed by volatile global commodity prices. Despite such enthusiasm, very little research to date examines whether or not derivative instruments actually can deliver income support to agricultural producers who face commodity price risk. This dissertation evaluates these recommendations, focusing upon the potential income security benefits of hedging with futures instruments for coffee farmers in Mexico, Brazil and Uganda during the 1998-2002 coffee crisis. The three-part quantitative and …

Cuotas Y Tasa Suplementaria En El Sector Lácteo En Cataluña [Quota And Super Levy In The Cow Milk Sector], Vanessa Casado-Pérez, Anna Ginès-Fabrellas, Patricia Gómez-González, Aroa Saiz-Jiménez

Faculty Scholarship

El Reglamento 856/84/CE instaura en el seno de la Unión Europea el régimen de cuotas lecheras y tasa suplementaria, con la finalidad de restringir la producción de leche de vaca. Dicha limitación al libre mercado ha afectado al precio de la leche y ha generado transformaciones importantes en la estructura productiva del sector ganadero catalán. Actualmente se debate la posibilidad de la supresión del régimen de cuotas lecheras y tasa suplementaria. La supresión de esta medida proteccionista conllevaría un aumento de la producción, una caída en el precio y una mayor intensificación de las explotaciones ganaderas. El objetivo de este …

Dying To Dine: A Story Of The Suicidal Indian Farmers, Srividhya Ragavan Jan 2009

Dying To Dine: A Story Of The Suicidal Indian Farmers, Srividhya Ragavan

Faculty Scholarship

The realities of the food crisis form the background to the discussion of India’s endeavor to tackle the issues relating to agriculture with special emphasis on the nation’s efforts to promote farmers’ rights under the Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers’ Rights Act, 2004 (PPVFA). The story of the PPVFA is interesting because the legislation represents India’s fulfillment of its international obligations by introducing breeders’ rights while simultaneously recognizing farmers’ traditional rights. Thus, Part I of this article outlines the steps India took to promote farmers’ rights as part of enacting a legislation to protect breeders’ rights to fulfill its …
