Dumping refers to selling below fair value to undermine competitors' charging the market price and/or to get rid of excess inventorywith the same outcome, of undermining competition. When used as price controls, antidumping measures involve initiating investigations to determine whether imports are sold below fair value, imposing duties to offset dumping, as well as adopting other measures to counter the effects of dumping.
