The note served as a background to the Joint UNCTAD/CFC Workshop on Enhancing Productive Capacities and Diversification of Commodities, and South-South Cooperation. It highlights the continued importance of commodities for least developed countries' exports earnings and the close link between commodity dependence and indebtedness. The note also discusses the factors underlying the negative real price trend for commodities, the increasing gap between prices paid to developing country producers and those paid by final consumers, commodity price fluctuations and other policy areas of concern in the production, processing and marketing of commodities.
