  • Western Balkans agriculture and European integration : unused potential and policy failures?
    Volk, Tina ; Rednak, Miroslav ; Erjavec, Emil
    The objective of this article is to provide an analysis of the development and current situation in agriculture and agricultural policy in Western Balkans countries (WBs) in relation to the EU ... accession process. Most WBs has quite high but unsued potential for agriculture. The small-scale and fragmented nature of private farming remains a general characteristic of agriculture in all WBs. After a decline in the volume of agricultural production due to transition and armed conflicts an increase seems to have set in for WBs since 2000. However, yields still lag behind the EU average in all WBs, particularly in the livestock sector. In general, agricultural producer prices are rather high, mostly above the EU average, indicating weak price competitiveness for most WB products. Serbia is the only net exporter of agricultural and food products. Budgetary transfers to agriculture have been at a low level, except in Croatia, but mostly are increasing repidly. The WBs lack a stable agricultural policy and a true strategy of reforms and adjustment to EU requirements.
