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%).

Towns with its own influences enrich the network of surrounding settlements, strengthen their mutual relations and create a whole functional settlement system of one area , or the gravity of the urban core. By dividing the functions of the primary, secondary and tertiary, the basis and types of settlements are created by functional criteria according to the type of economic activity and the primary content in them. In this area in the second half of the twentieth and early twenty-first century witnessed substantial changes in almost all components of demographic structure, which resulted in the transformation of functional types of settlement, when the predominantly agrarian settlement characteristic of the area of Toplica road went up mixed and service settlement. The idea behind the study is for the geographically complex area to be displayed in the light of socio- economic development, and as a basis for further economic development of this part of the Republic of Serbia.

Council of Europe European Landscape Convention
COUNCIL OF EUROPE EUROPEAN LANDSCAPE CONVENTION National Workshop on the implementation of the European Landscape Convention in Bosnia and Herzegovina Drawing landscape policies for the future Trebinje, Bosnia and Herzegovina 25-26 January 2018 SESSION 1 SERBIA Mrs Jasminka LUKOVIC JAGLICIC Director Advisor, Regional Economic Development Agency, Sumadija and Pomoravlje The role of the Regional Economic Development Agency for Sumadija and Pomoravlje in the process of the implementation of the European Landscape Convention at regional and local level The Regional Economic Development Agency for Sumadija and Pomoravlje was founded in 2002 as the partnership between public, civil and private sectors, with the purpose of planning and management of equal territorial development. The Law on Regional Development (adopted in July 2009, “Official Gazette of the Republic of Serbia”, No. 51/2009, 30/2010 and 89/2015) defined the competence and area of intervention of regional development agencies for planning of development processes at regional level, applying the principles of broad stakeholder participation, inter-municipal and cross-sector approach in identifying problems and measures to address them. REDASP consistently applies these principles in its work on the one hand and has the ratification of the European Landscape Convention on the other hand. Thus the Republic of Serbia has recognised the landscape as an essential component of the human environment and agreed to 1). establish and implement a set of policies aimed at the protection, management and planning of the area and 2). to establish procedures for involvement of the wider public, local and regional authorities, as well as other landscape policy stakeholders. -
Migration Profile of Serbia
Migration Profile Country perspective EXTENDED VERSION Serbia In the framework of MMWD – Making Migration Work for Development, the WP7 activities foresee the launch of a Transnational Platform for Policy Dialogue and Cooperation as an effort to support governments to address the consequence of Demographic trends on SEE territories. In particular, this platform will involve policy makers and decision makers at the national and sub-national level to promote the adoption of more effective services and regulations of the migration flows across the SEE area. In order to support and stimulate the dialogue within the Platform ad hoc migration profiles (MPs) will be developed for each partner country and will integrate the information and knowledge already provided by Demographic projections and Policy scenarios. The current MP focuses on the case of Serbia and it’s centred around five topics: resident foreign population by gender, age cohorts and citizenship; population flows (internal migration, emigration, immigration); immigrants presence in the national labour market; foreign population by level of educational attainment; remittances/transfers of money to country of origin. These topics have been selected among the MMWD panel of indicators relevant to describe demographic 1. Resident foreign population by and migration trends as well as to map their socio- gender, age cohorts and citizenship economic implications. Given that national legislation does not define the Background Information on Serbia categories of “immigrant” and “immigration”, the existing monitoring system does not allow this category to be Capital: Belgrade easily recorded. For the purposes of the Migration Profile immigrants are identified as persons residing in Official language: Serbian the Republic of Serbia for more than 12 months based on granted temporary and permanent residence. -

Organic Production Is Created As a Response to Human Environmental
Summary: Organic production is a form of sustainable agriculture which protects human health and agro-ecosystems, and provides a significant economic profit. Since the area under this type of agricultural production increases throughout the world, the production of organic industrial plants records a trend of permanent increase. The aim of this study was to show the production status and production areas in Serbia for the period of 2013-2015. During the analyzed period, the area under this type of production increased by 75%. The highest organic production of industrial plants is concentrated in Vojvodina. The area increased twofold in 2014, while in 2015 a threefold increase of area was recorded (compared to 2013 data). Serbia has very favorable conditions for organic crop production, as well as an additional investment to support producers, facilitate greater dissemination of their products to foreign markets, which have unlimited demand. Key words: areas, industrial crops, organic crop production, regions processing, with adequate global and regional development strategy, can significantly increase the Organic production is created as a response to production of organic foods, increase exports, make human environmental pollution, urbanization and the profits and protect the environment. The structure of preservation of flora and fauna, where the use of agricultural production is conditioned by economic and pesticides in conventional agriculture not only prevents natural diversity and characteristics of agricultural areas the loss of crop protection from pests and pathogens, in Serbia. In the lowland area, arable land is most but has many negative consequences on the frequent, of which 72% is under corn, 19% under environment, as well as on market, because it leads to industrial crops, vegetables below 5% and 4% under increased cost of agricultural products (Golijan and forage crops. -

Changes in the Age Structure at the Minicipalities of Toplica Region
DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGES IN THE COUNTY OF TOPLICA Maja Novović, Marija Mihajlović Abstract: Modern demographic development of the municipalities of Toplica region follows major changes in population trends, natural and mechanical movement of population and population structures. Statistical analysis of previously collected and processed data came to the conclusion that these changes result from a number of mutually conditioned factors that led to changes in the development of the population, which have had a negative impact on the demographic development of the Toplica district in recent decades. Keywords: Population, movement, natural population growth, age structure, education, demographic development. Introduction The county of Toplica is located in the southern part of the Republic of Serbia. It covers an area of 2,231 km². It includes the following municipalities: Prokuplje, Blace, Kursumlija and Zitoradja, with a total of 267 settlements, of both urban and rural type. It has a total population of 91,754 (according to the census of 2011). It has a favorable position even though it is not on the major international routes. We can say that on the basis of the comparative method if we look at other regions. Its location in the beginning of the twentieth century greatly improved, building rail and road routes. In this way, it is linked with neighboring regions. According to the results of archeological research, the county of Toplica was inhabited in prehistoric times. The first inhabitants were Dardin, an Illyrian tribe, known as good herders and warriors. Due to specific historical circumstances in the past, the county of Toplica has a very simple ethnic structure. -
