Does Participating in Agricultural Global Value Chains Promote Agricultural Growth?
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the relationship between GVC participation and agricultural value‐added growth in 43 countries over the period 1995–2022. In contrast to prior literature, we disaggregate the agricultural sector into four sub‐sectors namely crop cultivation, animal production, forestry and fishing.
