Brexit will have important implications for UK agricultural commodity markets due to potentially significant changes to trade flows. Analysis undertaken by economists within the Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute (AFBI, Professor John Davis, Dr Siyi Feng and Dr. Myles Patton) in conjunction with the University of Missouri (Dr. Julian Binfield) has quantified the sectoral impacts on UK agriculture of alternative trade agreements following Brexit using the widely-respected FAPRI-UK economic modelling system. The AFBI researchers analysed three possible post-Brexit trade arrangements: Bespoke Free Trade Agreement with the EU; WTO default MFN tariffs; and Unilateral Trade Liberalisation. The scenarios are designed to be illustrative of the impacts of the range of possible trade arrangements.
