The grouping of the Serbian districts according to the degree of the market production of fruit and grapes in 2015 was performed by a cluster analysis, on the basis of the six features of production, five features of the capacities, and five features of development. According to the data for 2015, the degree of the marketability of apples in Serbia was 47.7%, plums 15.9%, and grapes 18.3%. The Serbia-North Region shows a surplus in the production of apples, and a deficit in the production of plums (-181.7%) and grapes (-99.1%). The Serbia-South Region has a surplus in the production of the analyzed kinds of fruit (the apple accounting for 43.0%, and the plum 50.9%) and grapes (45.2%).

Child Friendly Spaces functional in four largest collective centers in Belgrade (Kranjača, Sajam, Lazarevac and PIM) with over 180 children benefiting on daily basis. Permission obtained from Ministry of Defense for establishment of Child Friendly Space in the collective center “Barraks” in Obrenovac (Military compound). Opening of Child Friendly Space in collective center “Barracks” planned for the end of this week Youth Activities, targeting young people from collective centers in Belgrade established in coordination with a local youth centre. A Recovery Needs Assessment (RNA) is ongoing with the full engagement of UNICEF staff and consultants in the WASH and Education sectors. Procurement procedure for 6,000 hygiene packages completed, distribution expected in the coming 2 weeks. SITUATION OVERVIEW: The floods and landslides triggered by Balkan Cyclone Tamara in May 2014 left thirty-four people in Serbia dead and almost 32,000 evacuated from their homes, 24,000 from Obrenovac only. 1 Although the majority of evacuees were accommodated with relatives, approximately 5,000 people found temporary shelter in collective centres established by the Red Cross of Serbia. The size and location of these centres has varied over the past 4 weeks, as some evacuees were able to return home and others were re-located to other sites. The current number of people in collective centers in Belgrade and Obrenovac is estimated at 1,500. The Government reported that more than 2,260 buildings were flooded, over 1,800 damaged, and more than 30,000 households left without electricity.

These changes significantly influenced the hierarchy of these settlements in the settlement system. The phenomenon of urban hierarchy and changes in the hierarchy of settlements are rare research topics in Serbia. In this research, Kolubara District (in Western Serbia) is used as a case study because it has a good traffic position, as well as good potential for industrial development, but despite this, its inhabitants migrate to larger cities. This paper tests Schmook’s method for the centrality of settlements. A survey was used to examine the attitude of the local population in regard to the centrality and hierarchy of settlements. A closed type questionnaire was used. The results show that the local population has a positive attitude toward the functional development of the cities in the Kolubara District.

  • Serbia, Gas Market Liberalization
    Serbia, gas market liberalization Srbijagas faces big challenges, but also organizational changes to make it more efficient and more competitive on the market. This was also declared by the Government’s Development Plan by 2025. Of the earmarked additional EUR 500 million for energy, a large part will go to support gas investments. Transport has already been separated from Srbijagas. The new company Transportgas Srbija has 246 employees and its special headquarters in Novi Sad. The next step is the separate operation of the Distribucijagas Srbija branch, with gas trading and storage being separated in the last phase. As with EPS, you are able to buy electricity from someone else. This will also be possible in the gas field. As a result, it is essential for us to grow, to have a modern network, modern control, good management to operate the system, and let the traders compete, Dusan Bajatovic, director of Srbijagas, said. Srbijagas has to work out another option – the plan is that our country will have four gas distribution zones in the future. One will be Belgrade, the other is Vojvodina and the other two will be in central and southern Serbia. The exact locations depend on the degree of gasification. The reorganization of the company will be accompanied by accelerated gas investments – the completion of the infrastructure on our Turkish Stream line, the Nis-Sofia gas interconnector. The plan is to begin work on expanding the Banatski Dvor storage by the middle of the year. We will pay special attention and certain funds have been earmarked under the investment plan, to further improve gas infrastructure of the country.

  • UNICEF Serbia/Emilunicef Vas
    SITUATION REPORT 30 MAY 2014 FLOODS SERBIA Humanitarian Situation Report 30 May 2014 UNICEF Serbia/EmilUNICEF Vas © 1. Critical Issues for Children Serbia was faced with the worst floods due to the heaviest rains seen in the region for more than a century. Heavy rainfall began on 13 May, as a result of a low-pressure area (Yvette internationally, Tamara in the Balkans) that formed over the Adriatic Sea due to polar air from Central Europe meeting with the humid subtropical air of the Mediterranean basin. After the rainfall ceased, several rivers – specifically, the Sava (Europe’s second longest river after the Volga), Kolubara, Drina, Mlava and Velika Morava rivers –continued to rise. Map of flooded areas in Serbia, OCHA May 26, 2014 SITUATION REPORT 30 MAY 2014 According to the official reports, there were 33 fatalities, over 32,000 people displaced, 1.6million people affected, and 773 are still missing. Among those evacuated, some 6,000, including many children, are housed in temporary accommodation facilities in Belgrade, organized by the City of Belgrade and coordinated by the Serbian Red Cross. A large number of the families in collective centres are Roma from informal settlements, the majority of whom lost their home and belongings in the flooding, with no projected timeframe for their return. Although the displaced are currently being relocated, as current collective centres are closed down, it is quite likely that the most vulnerable families will remain displaced for the coming 2-3 months. The government revoked the state of emergency on the national level on 23 May.
