Abstract
Following the 1999 ethnic conflict in Kosova between Serbs and Kosovar Albanians,the UN has been promoting agricultural and rural recovery in a war-torn, divided and vandalised country. A pillar of this effort is to provide loans to farmers and agri-businesses to re-establish agricultural production so as to encourage moves towards reconciliation and a peaceful future. Early loans were advanced to petitive sectors like wine which had no realistic chance of making any repayments. A study was carried out in 2002 to assess petitiveness of the various agricultural sectors to rapidly inform future lending programmes. This article reports this study and its findings.
Credit should only be advanced to sectors in which Kosova has petitiveness in terms of its trade parity prices. It is shown that, contrary mon belief, domestic wheat production petitive (Table 3) and other sectors with potential to substitute for imports include the milk industry and potato production, but Kosova has few real opportunities to export petitive, international markets.
There is a shortage of information on agricultural production, costs and prices, food consumption patterns and international trade
