Abstract

This paper investigates the effect of Trade Policy and Non-Trade Policy Reforms on the Export performance of Agricultural Commodities while emphasizing on the empirical views of Developing Countries. The paper reviewed the relevant literature in this area in order to investigate the effect of Trade Policy and Non-Trade Policy Reforms on the Export performance of Agricultural Commodities from Developing Countries during the 1990s and the subsequent years. The paper revealed that trade policy reforms implemented in developing countries during the 1990s are critical in determining output and, as a result, agricultural commodity export performance. The study recommends that developing countries should promote trade policy reforms in the agricultural sector in order to improve agricultural commodity export performance.
