The topic of this report is the effort of EU and Mercosur countries (Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay) to improve trade
relations and to use the momentum of induced economic growth to achieve goals of common interest that go beyond improving
the flow of goods. It explores the state of knowledge, with a focus on agricultural and environmental topics, presents quantitative
assessments and identifies issues which need further inquiry. The findings are intended to support facts-oriented discussions
about Mercosur.
