La Asociación Transatlántica para el Comercio y la Inversión (TTIP) entre la UE y EEUU. Previsiones para el sector agrícola

Resum

The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) (also known as The Treaty for short) is a collaborative project between the European Union and the United States of America with the aim of improving trade between the two regions through the removal of tariffs and administrative barriers. The agreements are proving difficult to implement due to legislative differences regarding manufacturing production and quality control issues but are also being further hindered by controversies unleashed in the press and on social media concerning the opacity with which the negotiations are taking place. Indices of production are presented. The advantages and disadvantages that would be felt by the agriculture sector on both sides are analyzed. This treaty is considered necessary to improve the level of competitiveness for both parties provided the rules are fair and equitable.
