Marcela Escobari on Agricultural Subsidies

Agricultural subsidies are a huge distortion for world markets, particularly the poor. They happen because local interests want to protect their markets. And they do that at the expense of other countries that don't have the same power to negotiate the bilateral agreements with large powers like the US." - Marcela Escobari, Executive Director of Harvard University's Center for International Development
