| Abstract: | Between 1990 and 2004 the value of world trade increased by 110% whereas the value of
exports from New ZealandÂ’'s land based sectors expanded by only 51%. This paper examines
New ZealandÂ’'s performance using shift share analysis. According to this framework, the main
cause of this slow export performance is that international trade in agricultural and forestry
commodities has been growing slowly. Countering this, New Zealand has been improving its
competitiveness within these commodities, especially since 2000. |
