FNS is approached by indicators on agricultural production, food consumption, world market prices, agricultural exports, agricultural imports and calorie intake per capita. The analysis of the impact of the past and current CAP on FNS is based on literature review; for exploring impacts of the future CAP 2020-2030 on FNS three policy scenarios are developed – a baseline scenario, a CAP Eliminating scenario and a CAP Greening scenario - which are simulated with the MAGNET model. Our findings show that the impact of the CAP on FNS in Sub Sahara Africa (SSA) is mainly channelled via the impact of the CAP on the level of world market prices.

    In this joint publication, Wageningen Economic Research and CBS present and explain the first estimates of agricultural trade figures for 2020. These concern both agricultural goods and agriculture-related goods. In addition, the report discusses how much the Netherlands earns from agricultural trade. Three topics are discussed in more detail. For this edition these are the consequences of Brexit for Dutch agricultural trade, an analysis of agricultural logistics and the regional function of the Netherlands in the EU.
