The objective of these proceedings is to examine consumer demand for quality attributes (including food safety, biotechnology-free food, organic food, and so forth) in the context of a global economy and expanding international trade and the role of both private firm strategies and public policy in facilitating consumer choice and free trade. Specific questions will be addressed in order to meet this objective. They begin with the two-way linkage between trade and consumer demand, and end with quality and regulation.
