By 1963, a path for integrating the economies of Turkey and the eventual European Union had been mapped. As with many trade agreements, agriculture posed difficult political hurdles, which were never fully cleared, even as trade barriers to other sectors were eventually removed and a Customs Union formed. This essay traces the influences the Turkey-European Union economic institutions have had on agricultural policies and the agriculture sector. An applied general equilibrium framework is used to provide estimates of what including agriculture under the Customs Union would mean for the sector and the economy. The paper also discusses the implications of fully aligning Turkey's agricultural policies with the European Union's Common Agricultural Policy, as would be required under full membership.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOABACAAGRIBUSINESSAGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENTAGRICULTURAL ECONOMICSAGRICULTURAL EXPORTSAGRICULTURAL LABORAGRICULTURAL POLICIESAGRICULTURAL POLICYAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTSAGRICULTURAL TRADEAGRICULTUREALFALFAALMONDSANIMAL HUSBANDRYANIMAL PRODUCTSANIMALSAPPLESAPRICOTSARTICHOKESASPARAGUSAVOCADOSBACTERIABANANASBARLEYBARRIERS TO TRADEBEEFBEERBEESWAXBEET SUGARBEETSBERRIESBEVERAGESBILATERAL AGREEMENTSBILATERAL TRADEBILATERAL TRADE RELATIONSBRANBREADBREAKFAST CEREALSBREWINGBROCCOLIBUCKWHEATBUTTERCANDYCARROTSCASHEW NUTSCASSAVACASSAVA STARCHCASTOR BEANSCAULIFLOWERSCEREALSCHEESECHERRIESCHESTNUTSCHOCOLATECHOCOLATESCIGARETTESCIGARSCINNAMONCITRUS FRUITCLIMATIC CONDITIONSCLOVESCOCOACOCOA BEANSCOCOA BUTTERCOCONUTCOCONUTSCOFFEECOIRCOMMERCIAL BANKSCOMMODITYCOMMON MARKETCOMPARATIVE ADVANTAGECONDENSED MILKCONFECTIONERYCOPRACORNCOTTONCOTTONSEEDCOTTONSEED OILCREAMCROPCROPSCUCUMBERSCUSTOMSCUSTOMS DUTIESCUSTOMS TERRITORYCUSTOMS UNIONDAIRYDAIRY PRODUCTSDATESDEVELOPING COUNTRIESDOMESTIC PRODUCERSDOMESTIC REGULATIONDRIED MILKEGGSEXPORT SUBSIDIESEXPORT VALUEEXTRACTSFAOFARMFARMERFARMERSFARMINGFARMSFATSFERTILIZERFIBER CROPSFIELD CROPSFLAXFOOD IMPORTSFOOD INDUSTRYFOOD LAWFOOD POLICYFOOD PROCESSINGFOOD PROCESSORSFOOD PRODUCTIONFOOD PRODUCTSFOOD SAFETYFOOD SECURITYFREE ACCESSFREE ACCESS TO IMPORTSFREE TRADEFREE TRADE AGREEMENTFREE TRADE AREAFRESH FRUITFRUITFRUITSFUNGIGARLICGENERAL AGREEMENT ON TARIFFSGENERAL EQUILIBRIUMGENERAL EQUILIBRIUM MODELGENERALIZED SYSTEM OF PREFERENCESGLUTENGRAINGRAINSGRAPEFRUITGRAPESGREENHOUSESGROUNDNUTGROUNDNUT OILGROUNDNUTSGUAVASGUMSHAMHAZARDHAZARDSHEMPHONEYHORTICULTUREIMPORT DUTIESINNOVATIONINTERNATIONAL COMPETITIONINTERNATIONAL TRADEINTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSIONJOJOBAJOJOBA OILJUICESJUTELABOR FORCELEATHERLEEKSLEMONSLENTILSLIMESLINSEEDLINSEED OILMAIZEMALTMANGOESMEALMEATMILLETMOLASSESMULTILATERAL PROCESSMULTILATERAL TRADE AGREEMENTSMUSHROOMSNATIONAL INCOMENATURAL RESOURCESNATURAL RUBBERNON-TARIFF BARRIERSNUTNUTMEGNUTSOATSOFFALOIL PALMOILSEEDSOKRAOLIVE OILOLIVESONIONSORANGEORANGE JUICEORANGESORCHARDSPADDYPALM OILPAPAYASPASTAPEACHESPEARSPEASPEPPERPEPPERSPET FOODPIG MEATPINEAPPLESPLUMSPOPULATION GROWTHPORKPOTATOESPOULTRYPREFERENTIAL REGIMEPREFERENTIAL TREATMENTPRESERVATIVESPROCESSED FOODSPRODUCEPRODUCTION INCENTIVESPRODUCTION METHODSPROTECTIONISMPULSESRAISINSRAPESEEDRAPESEED OILREAL INCOMERESTAURANTSRICERICE BRANRICE FLOURRULES OF ORIGINRYESAFETY HAZARDSSAFETY ISSUESSESAMESESAME OILSHEANUTSSHEEP MEATSOILSSORGHUMSOYBEANSOYBEAN OILSOYBEANSSPICESSPINACHSTEELSTRAWSTRAWBERRIESSUGARSUGAR BEETSUGAR CANESUGARSSUNFLOWERSUNFLOWER OILSUPERMARKETSSYRUPTANGERINESTAPIOCATARIFF CONCESSIONSTARIFF ESCALATIONTARIFF LINESTARIFF PREFERENCESTARIFF PROTECTIONTARIFF RATETARIFF RATE QUOTASTARIFF RATESTARIFF REDUCTIONSTARIFF SCHEDULETARIFF SCHEDULESTEATECHNICAL BARRIERSTERMS OF TRADETOBACCOTOBACCO PRODUCTSTOMATOESTRADE AGREEMENTSTRADE AREATRADE BARRIERSTRADE DEFICITTRADE DIVERSIONTRADE POLICIESTRADE POLICYTRADE POLICY MAKERSTRADE POLICY REFORMTRADE POLICY REVIEWTRADE REGIMESTRADE RELATIONSTRADE RELATIONSHIPSTRADE RESTRICTIONSTRADE STRUCTURETRITICALETUBERSTURNIPSUNSKILLED LABORVANILLAVEGETABLESWAGESWALNUTSWATER SCARCITYWAXESWHEATWHEAT FLOURWHEYWINEWORLD TRADE10.1596/1813-9450-7059
