The impact of per-unit duties on world agricultural trade patterns results in varying effects for different countries and regions. Developed countries experience a higher impact on export unit values, while developing countries face a greater restrictive effect on trade.
We investigate the impact of per-unit duties (i.e. tariffs expressed in US dollars per unit of imported product) on world agricultural trade patterns. Using detailed data on trade and tariffs, we show first that they induce higher export unit values, confirming that the Alchian-Allen conjecture can be extended to per-unit duties. Second, we show that this effect is higher for developed countries, which can be explained by their specialization on high-priced products. Third, we find that the restrictive effect of per-unit duties on trade is higher for developing countries.
