Agricultural Market Access Database
The Agricultural Market Access
Database (AMAD) is a collection of data and information for
WTO members. It primarily consists of tariff schedules, tariff bindings,
country notifications, import quantities, applied tariff rates,
and other data useful in tariff analysis. Based in Microsoft Access
and Excel, AMAD is a publicly available information tool for
the analysis of WTO market access issues in agriculture. The database
currently contains data for 50 countries, including documentation
and examples. AMAD results from a cooperative effort by Agriculture
and Agri-Food Canada; EU Commission, Agriculture Directorate-General;
Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO); Organization for Economic
Cooperation and Development (OECD); the World Bank; United Nations
Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD); and USDA Economic
Research Service.
