DESCRIPTION:Persistently low world oil prices are stimulating tradable sect
 ors in oil-exporting countries. I use a three-location open economy model t
 o investigate the prospects for reverse Dutch disease in African countries 
 with a comparative advantage in agriculture but large internal and external
  trade costs. While falling resource revenues lead factors of production to
  shift into agriculture\, remote farmers can lose when trade costs make agr
 icultural goods behave like non-tradables. Household survey data from Niger
 ia shows a significant agricultural supply response that is correlated with
  exposure to international markets. Counterfactual simulations show that lo
 wering trade costs and boosting agricultural productivity can help offset t
 he lost income from oil.\\n\\nContact: Timothée Demont: timothee.demont[a
