[DISCONTINUED] Aggregated measurement of support for agriculture

Description

The product has been discontinued since: 08 Feb 2018. The 'current aggregate measurement of support' (AMS) is the measure for domestic subsidies for agriculture under the WTO Agreement of Agriculture. It consists of the so-called Amber Box which includes all internal support measures considered to distort production and trade that are not excluded pursuant to other provisions of the Agreement. The data shown in this table is AMS after de minimis, i.e. after deduction of the permitted minimal support of 5% of agricultural production for developed countries. AMS is only calculated for the EU as a whole, because there is only one common reduction commitment (support ceiling) for the EU in the Agreement and not separate ones for each Member State. Switzerland and Liechtenstein have a common reduction commitment, data for Switzerland thus shows the combined AMS of Liechtenstein and Switzerland.
