Agricultural Distortions Working Paper 19, December 2007 This is a product of a research project on Distortions to Agricultural Incentives, under the leadership of Kym Anderson of the World Bank’s Development Research Group. The authors are grateful for funding from World Bank Trust Funds provided by the governments of Ireland, Japan, the Netherlands (BNPP) and the United Kingdom (DfID). This Working Paper series is designed to promptly disseminate the findings of work in progress for comment before they are finalized. The views expressed are the authors’ alone and not necessarily those of the World Bank and its Executive Directors, nor the countries they represent, nor of the institutions providing funds for this research project.

ECONOMIC AND TRADE INDICATORS

FOR LATIN AMERICA, 1960 TO 2004

Damiano Sandri, Ernesto Valenzuela and Kym Anderson

This compilation of data from the World Development Indicators, FAOSTAT, and GTAP

6.0 databases provides comparative basic economic and trade indicators for LAC region.

Within the region countries are sub-divided into sub-regions, and for each region and

sub-region the case study countries are shown separately together with an aggregate of

that sub-region’s non-studied countries. Due to the very limited data availability, all the

countries with a population of less than 1 million in 2000 (except Barbados and Saint

Lucia), plus Cuba and Puerto Rico have not been included.

The tables begin with summary data for the period 2000-2004, and growth data

for 1980-2004. Then each one-page table shows annual data for the 45-year period from

1960 to 2004.

Apart from the series on black market premium (compiled by Easterly), on labor

force, agricultural employment, agricultural land and the section on production, supply

and export of agricultural commodities taken from the FAO, and those marked with * in

the table of contents computed from the GTAP6.1 database (or version 6.2 when

specified), all the other data have been retrieved from the World Bank’s World

Development Indicators (April 2006). Definitions of the various variables can be found in

the WDI section of the World Bank’s website. Time series of applied ad valorem tariff

(AHS) data from 1988 to 2005 are collected from UNCTAD-TRAINS using the WITS

system1. These tariffs correspond to trade weighted HS6 digits compiled at GTAP

sectoral level for primary agriculture and processed food, and aggregates for primary

agriculture, processed food, and primary non agriculture. Effectively applied tariffs for

1 http://wits.worldbank.org/. In the absence of a corresponding trade flow for a given tariff, WITS seeks for a matching trade flow in COMTRADE, either by direct or inverted trade (collecting exports to region x). These are exclusively ad valorem tariffs and thus do not include ad valorem equivalent of specific tariffs.

the year 2001 reported in the last table of the basic trade indicators come instead from the

GTAP6.1 database. They are obtained through a joint CEPII / ITC project, known as

MAcMAps, which calculates HS6 bilateral tariff including ad valorem tariff equivalent of

specific and compound tariffs and key non-tariff barriers such as tariff rate quotas

(TRQs).

Five-year averages for the period 2000-2004 are computed by averaging all the

available annual data within the period. However, average percentages and ratios for

single countries between two variables are computed by considering only those years for

which observations are available for both series. Growth rates are calculated consistently

with WDI statistical procedures, i.e. by fitting a linear regression trend to the logarithmic

annual values whenever at least half of the observations in the period are available. The

revealed comparative Advantage (RCA) indexes are computed as the product group’s

share of a region’s exports as a percentage of that product group’s share of global

merchandise exports. The service sector is derived as a residual, from GDP less

agriculture and industry.

The available tables and indicators are:
