“…En los países desarrollados, los alimentos poseen niveles de aranceles altos y subvenciones para su producción interna (Beghin et al, 2015). Sin embargo, Chile ha firmado 32 acuerdos comerciales con diferentes países y bloques comerciales, por lo cual, los alimentos de exportación no pagan impuestos y aranceles (Laxe et al, 2016;Munoz et al, 2021). Lo interesante del modelo chileno, es que, mediante una política pública en alianza con el sector privado, en base a incentivos económicos basado en los precios internacionales de los alimentos, ha sido capaz de incrementar un 63% el total de las exportaciones de alimentos entre el 2002 y el 2017…”

Chile implementó en el 2006 una política público-privada denominada: Chile Potencia Alimentaria. La política tuvo como objetivo posicionar a Chile como una potencia exportadora en alimentos a nivel mundial. El presente trabajo es una investigación exploratoria, descriptiva y de análisis longitudinal. La información se recopiló a través de una ficha de contenido que incluyó: autor, año, área de investigación, frase o párrafo, número de página, título, lugar, edición, editorial, fuente, web. La información se obtuvo de: bases de datos académicas, internet y medios de comunicación social, los cuales fueron validados con información oficial del gobierno de Chile y organismos internacionales. El trabajo concluye que las exportaciones de alimentos de Chile en montos FOB: frutas y hortalizas, pescados y mariscos y bebidas alcohólicas han tenido un crecimiento económico lineal de un 275% entre el período 2002 al 2018 y continúan creciendo. Finalmente, podemos decir que la Política Chile Potencia Alimentaria fue un éxito en las exportaciones de alimentos con valor agregado, a pesar de lo competitivo que son los mercados mundiales de alimentos y lo difícil que es acceder a ellos.

“…In contrast, Dutt et al (2013) present divergent findings, when examining preferential agreements, their analysis illuminates a unique positive effect on the intensive margin but detrimental effects on the extensive margin, this phenomenon stems from countries specializing in their export domains prior to entering into these trade agreements. It's important to notice that constrains in the public and private sector may diminish the effect of FTAs on export basket's diversification (Muñoz et al, 2021).…”

This research paper examines the effect of Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) on export diversification, focusing on Peruvian exports to five countries in the Asia Pacific region: China, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, and Singapore. By employing regression models with control variables, the study investigates the outcomes of FTAs on export patterns. The findings reveal that the FTA yielded two primary effects: general and lagged. The general effect of the FTA was observed in the case of Peruvian exports to China and Korea, whereby a greater variety of exported goods became available. On the other hand, the FTA signed with Japan, Thailand, and Singapore resulted in a gradual reduction in the concentration of exported items over time. These findings underscore the importance of comprehending the multifaceted impacts of FTAs on export diversification and emphasize the need for a nuanced understanding of how trade agreements influence export dynamics across diverse markets.

“…The pursuit of the agreement had different motivation coming from Chile and Korea (Muñoz et al, 2021). While Chile was already embraced in the search of preferential trade agreements to open its economy, it was also pursuing a more active involvement in the Asia Pacific region (Herreros, 2010;Schuschny et al, 2008;Wilhelmy, 2010); South Korea's policy departure from its long-standing support for the multilateral trading system began with its FTAs negotiations with Chile (W.-h. Kim, 2003;Park & Koo, 2007;Sohn, 2001).…”

“…The main difference between both economies was their approach towards agricultural liberalization. While for Chile, the sector becomes one of its most important export cluster; for Korea, it was a sensitive and protected sector (Muñoz et al, 2021). In the final text of the agreement, some agricultural products were treated as "exceptions to liberalisation", others were included in a "Doha Development Agenda" DDA category, subject to the results of the WTO's multilateral negotiations, and a "seasonal tariff system" was imposed on Chilean wines for the first 10 years (Bridges, 2004).…”

“…This may also support that most trade creation coming from the agreement is led by intensive margins, the rise of already existing exports, and that although also positive the extensive margin (new products into the relation), it is smaller. This hypothesis is further explored through qualitative assessments in the literature (Muñoz et al, 2021).…”

This paper analyzes the impact of the Chile-South Korea Free Trade Agreement (CKFTA) over the bilateral extensive and intensive margins of trade. Using disaggregated product-level data for the period 1996-2017, the paper tests the impact of CKFTA on bilateral flows, as well as differentiate these effects between intensive and extensive margins at the product level. To estimate, a Poisson-Pseudo Maximum Likelihood model is proposed. It is found that the CKFTA had a positive effect over bilateral trade flows, and although new products were added to the bilateral export basket (extensive margin), the impact is stronger on goods already traded (intensive margin). Moreover, the paper concludes that this effect is stronger for Chilean exports.
