Under the EU Common Agriculture Policy, only 11 of 19 sugar beet producing EU Member States provide coupled direct payments for sugar beet. This paper analyses the market effects of this uneven implementation of an agricultural policy instrument along the sugar supply chain, focusing in particular on changes in sugar production in individual EU Member States. In addition to previous literature, the effects on the production of competing crops to sugar beet are also presented. Moreover, the effects of coupled support are investigated under two different yield levels to account for yield uncertainties arising from an application ban on certain insecticides that came into force in the EU in 2018. The simulation was carried out using the partial equilibrium model AGMEMOD. Results suggest that the market-distorting effect of coupled support for sugar beet remains limited and tends to be higher under an optimistic yield development. Assuming unchanged yield growth, the simulated increase in sugar production of EU countries providing coupled support totals 258,000 tonnes of sugar (+5.7%), while sugar production in EU countries without coupled payments declines by only 21,000 tonnes (−0.2%) resulting in an overall increase in EU sugar production of 236,000 tonnes (+1.3%). Despite these rather limited market-distorting effects, providing coupled support to sugar beet cannot be supported from an economic point of view because it contradicts the objective of a stronger market-orientation of EU agricultural production.

欧盟对甜菜的联合支持:是否会导致市场扭曲?

根据欧盟共同农业政策,19 个生产甜菜的欧盟成员国中只有 11 个为甜菜提供耦合直接付款。本文分析了食糖供应链中农业政策工具实施不均衡对市场的影响,特别关注欧盟各成员国食糖生产的变化。除了以前的文献外,还介绍了对甜菜竞争作物生产的影响。此外,在两个不同的产量水平下研究了耦合支持的影响,以解释 2018 年在欧盟生效的某些杀虫剂的应用禁令引起的产量不确定性。使用部分平衡模型 AGMEMOD 进行了模拟。结果表明,对甜菜的联合支持对市场的扭曲作用仍然有限,并且在乐观的单产发展情况下往往更高。假设单产增长不变,提供耦合支持的欧盟国家食糖产量的模拟增加总计 258,000 吨食糖(+5.7%),而没有耦合支付的欧盟国家食糖产量仅下降 21,000 吨(-0.2%),导致欧盟食糖总产量增加 236,000 吨(+1.3%)。尽管存在这些相当有限的市场扭曲效应,但从经济角度来看,不能支持为甜菜提供联合支持,因为这与欧盟农业生产以市场为导向的目标相矛盾。假设单产增长不变,提供耦合支持的欧盟国家食糖产量的模拟增加总计 258,000 吨食糖(+5.7%),而没有耦合支付的欧盟国家食糖产量仅下降 21,000 吨(-0.2%),导致欧盟食糖总产量增加 236,000 吨(+1.3%)。尽管存在这些相当有限的市场扭曲效应,但从经济角度来看,不能支持为甜菜提供联合支持,因为这与欧盟农业生产以市场为导向的目标相矛盾。假设单产增长不变,提供耦合支持的欧盟国家食糖产量的模拟增加总计 258,000 吨食糖(+5.7%),而没有耦合支付的欧盟国家食糖产量仅下降 21,000 吨(-0.2%),导致欧盟食糖总产量增加 236,000 吨(+1.3%)。尽管存在这些相当有限的市场扭曲效应,但从经济角度来看,不能支持为甜菜提供联合支持,因为这与欧盟农业生产以市场为导向的目标相矛盾。2%)导致欧盟食糖总产量增加 236,000 吨(+1.3%)。尽管存在这些相当有限的市场扭曲效应,但从经济角度来看,不能支持为甜菜提供联合支持,因为这与欧盟农业生产以市场为导向的目标相矛盾。2%)导致欧盟食糖总产量增加 236,000 吨(+1.3%)。尽管存在这些相当有限的市场扭曲效应,但从经济角度来看,不能支持为甜菜提供联合支持,因为这与欧盟农业生产以市场为导向的目标相矛盾。
