Abstract

The main objectives of this paper were to analyse the development of
agriculture sector export in the period 2004-2012, to identify key export
obstacles in the field and to define the recommendations that may initiate
progress in the perspective period. Thanks to the favourable climate
conditions, good natural characteristics of the arable land and disposable
hydrological resources, Serbia has a great potential for the development of
agriculture and export of various agriculture products. However, that
potential is not fully exploited due to numerous problems in the agricultural
sector that had negative impact on the volume and export effectiveness of
Serbian agriculture and food products. Even in these circumstances, Serbian
agriculture export share is almost 25% of total export and it is one of the few
economic activities that achieved foreign trade surplus in the previous period.
In order to ensure the enlargement in exports of agricultural and food
products in forthcoming period a stable and stimulating agricultural policy,
innovation of product portfolio, shifting to higher processing products, as well
as the developing export distribution network and building a national brand
and brands for the key agricultural export is necessary.
