MACEDONIA - ON THE WAY TO THE WINE Tanja Angelkova Petkova, Faculty of Tourism and Business logistic, Gevgelija; University of Goce Delcev - Shtip, Republic of Macedonia e-mail: [email protected] Cvetanka Ristova, Faculty of Tourism and Business logistic, Gevgelija; University of Goce Delcev - Shtip, Republic of Macedonia e-mail: [email protected] Gligor Prodanov e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT In this paper we will see the potentials for tourism development in the Tikvesh region in Macedonia. Special attention will be given to the opportunities for development of wine tourism, as well as the ways in which the local self-government and the whole local community can be involved in the development of this branch. The Tikvesh region has excellent potentials for the development of wine tourism. The exceptional location, the pleasant climate, the existence of cultural and historical landmarks and traditional manifestations, the abundance of local food products of high quality, the long-standing tradition in catering expressed in a number of well-arranged and equipped catering facilities, and certainly the production of many varieties of wine with exceptional quality are excellent preconditions for the development of wine tourism. Key words: Tourist destination, tourism, wine, wine tours, wineries. Introduction The Municipality of Negotino is located in Photo 1. Municipality of Negotino the central part of Republic of Macedonia, in the area of the middle Povardarie.

The level of achievement reached by the project is impressive and we would like to extend our thanks to the team at FAO Headquarters that has been able to successfully manage such a complex and sensitive project and at the same time create a sustainable private enterprise which is now playing a leading role in the market oriented development of the fruit and vegetable sector in the country. Though the model needs some fine-tuning, the Evaluation Team has oriented its analysis and prepared its conclusions in a way which underlines the priority issues that need to be addressed in order to ensure a full sustainability of the Project by the end of the present No Cost Extension (28 February 2006) and lays the ground for eventual future FAO assistance. This work gave rise to a very intense exchange of views and despite the difficulties and exacting workload, the project team maintained a high spirit and a clear commitment to the success of the Project as it has since

    293 A summary of the environmental and socio-economic characteristics of the Crna Reka (Crna River) watershed, Macedonia Zoran Spirkovski Trajce Talevski Dusica Ilik-Boeva Goce Kostoski Odd Terje Sandlund NINA Publications NINA Report (NINA Rapport) This is a new, electronic series beginning in 2005, which replaces the earlier series NINA commis- sioned reports and NINA project reports. This will be NINA’s usual form of reporting completed re- search, monitoring or review work to clients. In addition, the series will include much of the insti- tute’s other reporting, for example from seminars and conferences, results of internal research and review work and literature studies, etc. NINA report may also be issued in a second language where appropriate. NINA Special Report (NINA Temahefte) As the name suggests, special reports deal with special subjects. Special reports are produced as required and the series ranges widely: from systematic identification keys to information on impor- tant problem areas in society. NINA special reports are usually given a popular scientific form with more weight on illustrations than a NINA report. NINA Factsheet (NINA Fakta) Factsheets have as their goal to make NINA’s research results quickly and easily accessible to the general public. The are sent to the press, civil society organisations, nature management at all lev- els, politicians, and other special interests. Fact sheets give a short presentation of some of our most important research themes. Other publishing In addition to reporting in NINA’s own series, the institute’s employees publish a large proportion of their scientific results in international journals, popular science books and magazines.
