The report identifies three primary areas of WTO negotiations that may undermine the UNCCD: agricultural market liberalization, the liberalization of environmental and water services, and the legal relationship between Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs) and WTO rules. It warns that export-oriented agriculture can lead to chemical-dependent farming and displacement of local communities, while the privatization of nature protection and water services may restrict indigenous access to resources. Furthermore, the document suggests that WTO dispute mechanisms might deter states from adopting the most effective anti-desertification measures if those measures are deemed trade-restrictive.

• WTO negotiations on agriculture aim to increase the profitability of export-oriented industrial production, which may cause adverse social and environmental effects. These include a shift from sustainable to chemical-dependent intensive agriculture, the displacement of local farming communities from traditional lands, and the conversion of fragile habitats and forests into marginal cropland.
• WTO negotiations regarding the liberalization of water supply services could lead to the privatization and deregulation of water management. This would hinder governments from ensuring that water access and use align with UNCCD principles, which emphasize equitable and participatory management.
• The effort to clarify the relationship between Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs) and WTO rules may discourage UNCCD member states from implementing effective anti-desertification measures. To avoid WTO dispute mechanisms, states might only adopt the 'least trade-restrictive' measures, which may be less effective than more restrictive alternatives.
