| Authors: | Malorgio, Giulio Hertzberg, Anna |
| Issue Date: | 2007 |
| Series/Report no.: | 103rd EAAE Seminar 'Adding Value to the Agro-Food Supply Chain in the Future Euromediterranean Space' |
| Abstract: | Political and economic changes over the last ten years have intensified agri-food trade among
Mediterranean countries. This paper aims to examine the exchanges between Italy and these
countries. The analysis of these exchanges highlight trends that indicate Italy's agri-food balance
has deteriorated during the previous ten years. A Constant Market Shares Analysis has been
performed on Italy's fruit and vegetable imports from Egypt, Turkey, Morocco and Tunisia, which
aims to assess their competitiveness. The results are then compared with those of Italy's major fruit
and vegetable suppliers, the EU and Latin America, which indicate some Mediterranean Partners
have high levels of competitiveness. |
