Agricultural products are not currently heavily traded - according to Director-General Pascal Lamy, they currently make up only 10 per cent of world trade; only 25 per cent of the world's agricultural production is traded globally; and, in some key commodities (e.g. rice) the figure is much lower. What is more, in some cases there could be adverse consequences for the environment. Over-emphasis on food security could make put net food importing countries even in more precarious situation.
