FOREIGN TRADE AND TRANSITION PROCESS IN AGRI-FOOD SECTOR OF UKRAINE
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Levkovych,   Inna; Hockmann,   Heinrich.
In this study we try to assess the progress of the transformation process in Ukrainian agri-food sector. The development of foreign trade may serve as indicator of success of market reforms. Thus we analyse the changes in the trade structure of agri-food sector during 1996-2005. Also we compute indicators of inter- (RTA Index) and intra-industrial (Grubel-Lloyd Index, Brülhart A-Index) trade for this period. These indicators provide information about competitiveness of Ukrainian products, type and development of trade flows. We discuss also which policy measures are necessary for further economic integration of Ukraine into world markets

This Discussion Paper provides an analysis of competitiveness of the Belarus’ dairy sector based on international trade indicators. The ex-post analysis is extended by an ex-ante analysis in order to gain detailed insights into the sector’s future opportunities and challenges. Systematic access is established through relevant determinants with respect to Porter’s diamond. Ex-post analysis results indicate a strong position of Belarus in the international dairy trade although limited to homogenous products like milk powder and evaporated milk. Competitive disadvantages were revealed for highly processed dairy products. The ex-ante analysis through Porter’s diamond model reveals the necessary prerequisites for potentially successful future developments in...

A hazai hús és az élelmezési célra alkalmas melléktermékek kereskedelmi pozíciójának vizsgálata
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Poor,   Judit.
A hús és húskészítmények termékcsoport fontos szerepet töltött be hazánk agrár-külkereskedelmében az agrárexporton belüli részesedése, valamint külkereskedelmi egyenlege alapján, annak ellenére, hogy mindkettő csökkenő tendenciát jelzett a vizsgált időszakban, miközben a világ húsfogyasztása és külkereskedelme jelentős bővülést mutatott. A dolgozat a konstans piaci részesedés (CMS) modellje és a megnyilvánuló komparatív előny (RCA) mutató alapján vizsgálja a hús és élelmezési célra alkalmas vágási melléktermékek (HS02) külkereskedelmi pozíciójának változását az 1997-2006 közötti időszakra vonatkozóan. A CMSmodell eredményei szerint az export bővülése a vizsgált időszak alatt a célországok importnövekedésének köszönhető. Pozitív reziduális hatás csupán a...

U.S. Foreign Direct Investment in the Western Hemisphere Processed Food Industry
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Bolling,   H. Christine; Neff,   Steven; Handy,   Charles R.
Foreign direct investment (FDI) has become the leading means for U.S. processed food companies to participate in international markets. Affiliates of U.S.-owned food processing companies had $30 billion in sales throughout the Western Hemisphere in 1995, nearly 4 times the level of processed food exports. This report puts U.S. foreign direct investment and trade in processed foods to the region into global perspective, and finds evidence that, in the aggregate for the 1990's, trade and FDI are complementary--not competitive--means of accessing international food markets. Incomes have grown sufficiently in most countries to support growth in affiliate sales and U.S. exports, indicating a strong demand for a wide variety of processed foods.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE AGRICULTURAL AND INDUSTRIAL SECTORS IN CHINESE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Koo,   Won W.; Lou,   Jianqiang.
This study examined the interdependency between Chinese agricultural and industrial sectors. A dual economic model was developed to investigate the relationship between the two sectors and factors affecting Chinese economic development. The study reveals traditional inputs, such as labor, are still important to Chinese economic development. Capital investment contributed significantly to the growth of the Chinese industrial sector, but not to the agricultural sector. The results also suggest that foreign trade has made a significant contribution to Chinese economic development. It was found that the growth of the Chinese agricultural sector depends on its industrial growth, but the growth of the Chinese industrial sector does not rely on the agricultural...

The Situation of Hungarian Agriculture
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Burger,   Anna.
Hungarian agriculture has gone thru a long and difficult development since the First World War. The semi-feudal agriculture of the Horthy era between the two World Wars was followed by a land distribution after the Second World War, which created an agricultural system dominated by smallholders. However, the small farms were soon collectivized. Despite the forced collectivization, the large farms developed well and the living standard of the peasantry grew significantly. After the collapse of socialism in Hungary in 1990, political parties decided again to restructure agriculture. A new land distribution was carried out which created an agricultural system based on smallholdings. On the mostly too small, scattered holdings, the technical and technological...

The Trends of the Agrarian Foreign Trade of CR after Accession to EU, Competitiveness of Commodities
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Burianova,   Jaroslava.
The extent of agricultural foreign trade (AFT) of the Czech Republic (CR) increased markedly after accession to EU. The first part of this article is devoted to the trends during the period of 2004 – 2008. Detailed analysis of the CR AFT has been carried out for all 24 items of the basic food goods during the same period for the assessment of competitiveness of individual commodities. The Balass indicator RCA (Revealed Comparative Advantage) was used for this analysis, as well as the Michaely index that shows the specific measure of specialization for export. The method of logarithmic decomposition, which makes it possible to determine the effect of prices and quantities to net export has also been used. This paper was processed within the framework of the...

Competitiveness of the Polish Food Sector after the accession to the European Union
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Szczepaniak,   Iwona; Szczegolska,   Monika.
The paper focuses on the competitiveness as a driving force of market economy. The analyses of the results of foreign trade in agricultural and food products confirm that Polish agro-food sector is well prepared for operation on the Common European Market. Food producers have taken advantage of their competitive edge, mainly in terms of pricing. Nevertheless, consumers form other EU countries also accept quality features of Polish food. However, in order to maintain their position on the Common European Market, Polish producers should attach even greater attention to the promotion of their products.

Using the market opportunities in the food economy’s foreign trade – measurement of success based on the potential balance
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Wagner,   Hartmut.
This work was aimed at analysing the effects of the sudden food price explosion followed by price crash which occurred recently on the foreign trade of the food economy. Comparison of the balances of the different countries was difficult due to the differences in the absolute dimensions; therefore a new method was introduced. Firstly, with the help of the “food economic foreign trade profile” extent to which the different product categories (divided by main product groups or by degree of processing) contribute to the foreign trade balance of the given country’s food economy was examined. In the second step, with the help of “profile indexing”, the extent to which the country in question was able to turn to profit the market opportunities offered by the...

Major Problems and Countermeasures of Foreign Trade in China under the Background of Expanding Domestic Demand
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Ruan,   Wei-tong; Li,   Yu-hong.
Starting from China's macro-economic policy level and combining with the status of foreign trade in China, major problems in the development of foreign trade are analyzed under the background of expanding domestic demand, which is guided by the macro-economy, international finance, international trade and other related disciplines. Problems are mainly the inflation, the reduction of import, the trade protection, the increase in export costs, the reduction of export, the scale shrinkage of foreign trade, the speculation of short-term hot money, and the increase in risk of economic fluctuation. Finally, corresponding countermeasures are put forward, such as actively coping with the appreciation of the RMB, effectively increasing the anti-risk ability of RMB,...

Market implications of FMD epidemics in the Finnish pig sector: Does market structure matter?
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Niemi,   Jarkko K.; Lehtonen,   Heikki; Lyytikainen,   Tapani; Kallio,   E.
This paper examines the role of market coordination and market distortions caused by a hypothetical FMD outbreak in the Finnish pig sector. By using stochastic dynamic programming, it simulates the consequences of two outbreak scenarios (large vs. small) under two distinct market regimes (competitive market vs. monopoly in the domestic supply). Simulated losses depend on the magnitude of outbreak and expected duration of possible turndown of meat exports, whereas market regime has a limited impact.

MILK AND MILK PROCESSING INDUSTRY IN LITHUANIA: AN ANALYSIS OF HORIZONZAL AND VERTICAL INTEGRATION
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Kedaitiene,   Angele; Hockmann,   Heinrich.
Despite significant progress in recent years, horizontal and vertical integration of the Lithuanian milk sector is not very much advanced. The primary sector is characterised by small-scale farming, the fragmentation of farmland and a low number of livestock per farms. These features cause severe problems regarding the restructuring and modernisation of agricultural production since only a few farmers possess the capital resources to conduct necessary investments. However, despite the unfavourable conditions Lithuanian milk producers have made significant improvements concerning milk quality. In the last decade, the processing sector was due to drastic concentration processes. These were induced by the strong competition processes on the milk market and...

A válság hatása a magyar élelmiszer-gazdasági külkereskedelemre nemzetközi összehasonlításban
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Hartmut,   Wagner.
Magyarország élelmiszer-gazdasági külkereskedelme az árciklus, és ezen belül elsősorban az árrobbanás nyertesei közé sorolható. Lényegesen javult az egyenleg a válság előtti időszakhoz képest, a gabona és olajos növények exportja a növekvő piaci áraknak köszönhetően ugrásszerűen emelkedett a 2007-2008. években. A többi ágazat képe alapján azonban már inkább a vesztesek körébe került Magyarország, elsősorban a húspiacon (kivéve a baromfiszektort), a tej és tejtermékek, valamint a gyümölcs- és zöldségtermelés csökkenő nemzetközi versenyképessége miatt.  Ha a főbb versenytársak élelmiszer-gazdasági külkereskedelmének alakulásával hasonlítjuk össze hazánkét, még vegyesebb a kép. Hollandia például nem a növekvő nyersanyagáraknak köszönhetően ért el jelentős...

A magyar zöldség- és gyümölcságazatok külkereskedelmi versenyképességének alakulása
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Medina,   Viktor.
A vizsgálatok eredményei alapján megállapítható, hogy a zöldség- és gyümölcságazatok versenyképesek, de a versenyképesség évről évre csökken. A versenyképesség romlása az uniós csatlakozással nem szűnt meg, sőt erősödött, ami részben az ágazat felkészületlenségének, részben a 2004. évi bő termésnek és a 2005. év kedvezőtlen időjárásának köszönhető. Kedvezőtlen eredmény az is, hogy a pozícióromlás legnagyobb mértékben a célpiacokon észlelhető. A termékköröket külön elemezve látható, hogy a versenyképességi mutatók a legkedvezőbbek a feldolgozott termékeknél. Ezt követik a friss zöldségek. A friss gyümölcsnél már nem is beszélhetünk versenyelőnyről. Ennek a magyarázatát elsősorban a jelentős mértékben megnőtt déligyümölcsimport adja. A kedvezőtlen...

J.S. Castillo, and M.C. García. 2013. Analysis of international competitive positioning of quality wine from Spain. Cien. Inv. Agr. 40(3): 491-501. The global vitiviniculture sector is undergoing systemic and thorough changes. Spain occupies a privileged position in the global industry, ranking first in surface area, third in production and second in export volume. In recent years, domestic consumption has experienced a clear and pronounced decline, as observed in France and Italy. Therefore, exportation has become the main commercial avenue for table and quality wine. In Spain, designated quality wine represents 50% of total production and has experienced commercial dynamics in international markets that differ from those affecting table wine. The object...
