Abstract

Over 80 per cent of our food’s emissions are generated inside the farm, mostly due to land clearing and emissions such as methane released by cattle. However, most governments don’t levy carbon taxes on their farmers, and much less so in developing economies. Tomás Domínguez Iino evaluates how effective such environmental tariffs are at reducing emissions, as well as their distributional impact across farmers in the context of Brazilian and Argentinian agricultural supply chains.
