Index. The developing and the least developed countries have a significant dependence on agriculture both in terms of proportion of GDP and provision of livelihood to the majority. The importance of agricultural trade in increasing the global economic welfare in general and that of these poorer countries in particular has paved the way for agricultural issues assuming key importance in International Trade Forums like WTO. Recognizing the importance of agriculture the Uruguay Round of GATT negotiations came up with the Agreement on Agriculture (1994) with improved market access reduction in domestic subsidies and abolition of export subsidies as three pillars supporting the move towards agricultural trade liberalization for multilateral equitable trading system.
