AGRICULTURAL SUPPORT, SIZE OF GOVERNMENT, AND ASSOCIATIONAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL RIGHTS: A DYNAMIC PANEL DATA ESTIMATION
Öz
This study analyzes the economic and political determinants of agricultural transfers made to the agricultural sector in selected countries included in OECD’s Agricultural Policy Monitoring
and Evaluation (APME) program since 1987. Supports to producers constitute the largest share in agricultural support along with supports to consumers and general services supports. Therefore, demand-side political decision mechanism variables should also be included in agricultural support analyses. The study argues that countries that have a larger (smaller) government sector and higher (lower) associational and organizational rights scores tend to provide larger (smaller) transfers to the agricultural sector. While the dynamic panel data estimation results on data from 2010 to 2015 do not support that countries that have larger size of government sector provide more transfers to the agricultural sector, they support that higher associational and organizational support scores lead to larger support estimates. Also, agricultural employment and food dependencies were the other significant determinants of agricultural support.
