metadata.value: This paper contributes to the methodology of trade policy analysis, specifically to the assessments
  of non-tariff measures. To quantifying the effects of these measures, the proportion
  between the variables of two gravity equations, describing the situation before and after the
  embargo is used. The ratio of imports per unit of the supplier’s GDP over the two compared
  periods (2013 and 2017) is different for two groups of trade partners, one of which includes
  free-trade partners while the other spans the rest of the world (with some exceptions). In the
  presence of the embargo the gap in the average imports per unit of the supplier’s GDP between
  the two groups is wider. This is a consequence of the emergence of a new trade barrier. This
  gap allows us to indirectly quantify the trade bans via their tariff equivalent. In this study the
  methodology is applied to the case of food and agricultural imports. Fish, as well as other
  products outside chapters 1–24 of Harmonized commodity description and coding system,
  are excluded. The hypothesis of the study is that the impact of the embargo on the food and agricultural
  imports does not exceed that of tariff and phytosanitary measures. The study rejects
  this hypothesis and concludes that the embargo establishes a prohibitive level of protection.
