Annual Agriculture and Rural Development Report 2007 ANNUAL AGRICULTURE AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT REPORT December 2008 PREFACE I am deeply honored and privileged to introduce you with the 2007 Annual Agricultural Report, in which The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Economy presents the agro-food sector of the Republic of Macedonia and its achievements in 2007. The report is a result of several reports of individual sectors prepared by the Ministry. The report is organized in 9 chapters and includes information on the macroeconomic frame in which the agricultural production was realized and the significance of the agro-food sector in the Republic of Macedonia, capacities, achieved production results in individual subsectors, agricultural and alimentary products trade, the Ministry’s policies on the creation of an ambient for the sector, services, science, education development in the area of agriculture. Many sources have been used for the preparation of this report for the purpose of providing the highest data quality as possible. The main source of data is the State Statistical Office (mainly published data from publications), data from individual sectors and administrations of the Ministry, studies of educational and scientific institutions etc. Yet, the insufficiently harmonized statistics that causes inappropriate dynamics still exists as a problem and represents a limiting factor for this report to be complete in all its elements. Due to that, some parts of the analyses refer to a period up to 2006. I hope that the 2007 Annual Agricultural Report shall be an important document for everyone who shall use it, and especially for students of the agro-food sector, no matter in which segment they are found, as a means which shall contribute to acquiring information in order to intensify development of the entire sector. Sincerely yours, Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Economy, Aco Spasenoski I.

SOCIAL AND MACROECONOMICAL SITUATION IN THE REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA WITH FOCUS OF AGRO-FOOD SECTOR The Republic of Macedonia is situated in the southern part of the Balkan Peninsula. It has a total surface of 25,713 км² and a total population of about 2.04 million. The Republic of Macedonia declared its independence from the former SFRJ on 8th September 1991. It is a parliamentary democratic country, with established institutions of legislative (parliament), executive (government) and judicial authority (judicial system) and with a division of the authority between them. Head of the state there is the president who is elected every 5 years. 1 The macroeconomic environment The Republic of Macedonia is a small Western Balkan country which is still considered as a country in transition. In 2007 Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is about 5.4 billion US$ or 2.6 thousand US$ per capita. The intention of the Macedonian economy is integrate into the international market. In view of that, the Republic of Macedonia was officially accepted as a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) in April 2003. In addition, the country has signed a number of free trade agreements with different countries from the region as a step towards strengthening the regional integration and cooperation.

Finally, in December 2005, Macedonia became a candidate country for EU membership. Unfortunately still without date for starting of the negotiations. There were radical political changes which took place on the territory of former Yugoslavia that affected the economy of the Republic of Macedonia in the last 17 years. Additionally, the Macedonian economy suffered from the UN sanctions to Serbia, and from the Greek economic embargo, related to the bilateral “name problem”. In this period (1991-1995), the GDP fell by more than 30%. In 1994, the government embarked a program for stabilization and structural adjustment, with 1 assistance from the IMF and the World Bank. The privatization process and the banking system reform were a valuable step in creating a free-market economy. In 2001 there was a conflict, which additionally influenced the economy that had a rapid economic growth decrease (table 1). The Political dialog and “the Ohrid agreement” set up political issues and there was an economic growth which started in 2003 and continued in 2007 (5.9%). However, the high rate of unemployment (34.9%) influenced a more progressive development. The inflation rate declined, and in 2007 it reached the value of 2.3%.
