中国WTO研究专家、中国农业大学经济学教授田维明近日向记者介绍说,我国入世后对所有农产品的关税均实行上限约束,并且将算术平均关税率由去年的17％降到2004年的15％。到执行期末,我国的农产品关税将保持在0％～65％这一范围之间。对于粮食、植物油、棉花、羊毛、食糖和橡胶等敏感商品将取消对外的计划管理,改为实施关税配额制度。 Tian Weiming, an expert in WTO research and a professor of economics at China Agricultural University, recently told reporters that after China’s accession to the WTO, it imposed restrictions on the tariffs on all agricultural products and reduced the arithmetic average tariff rate from 17% last year to 15% in 2004. By the end of the implementation period, China’s agricultural tariffs will remain in the range of 0% to 65%. For food, vegetable oil, cotton, wool, sugar, and rubber, sensitive goods will be canceled from the external program management and replaced by a tariff quota system.
