This age variation complicates the interpretation of the evolution of this high and ultrahigh‐pressure ([U]HP) terrane.

The Effect of Swiss Free Trade Agreements on Agricultural Trade
ABSTRACT As a country highly dependent on imports, Switzerland has many free trade agreements (FTAs) that liberalise trade barriers. We assess how these agreements affect Swiss agricultural imports at different margins of trade adjustment. We estimate reduced‐form gravity models using agricultural trade data for 202 partner countries from 2004 to 2022.
