These countries hold a great agricultural production potential; nevertheless, some of them are still relatively unanalysed from the point of view of agricultural policy. One of the aims was to find out whether and how policies are converging, considering recent geopolitical developments. Policy analysis was conducted qualitatively (document analysis and literature review) and quantitatively by applying the OECD PSE approach to analyse sector policy support. The quantitative analysis of the agri-food sector was based on the data collected in the framework of the AGRICISTRADE project. The key issues in the region are food security and competitiveness; policy approaches range from strong interventionism to almost complete liberalisation. Budgetary support is relatively low compared to averages for EU and OECD countries. Transfers to producers dominate in all countries, especially input subsidies and on-farm investment support, whereas the support to rural development and for general services is weak. While the prices for crops are near world prices, prices for animal products are fairly high in some countries, indicating high developmental needs. Based on the results of the analysis, it is possible to discern four rough political/economic clusters of countries: Transcaucasia countries, Russia and Kazakhstan,Ukraine and Moldova and Belarus. 000245877 546__ $$aEnglish 000245877 650__ $$aAgricultural and Food Policy 000245877 6531_ $$aEastern European Neighbourhood 000245877 6531_ $$aCIS 000245877 6531_ $$aagriculture 000245877 6531_ $$aagricultural policy 000245877 6531_ $$aproducer support 000245877 6531_ $$aPSE 000245877 6531_ $$aAGRICISTRADE 000245877 700__ $$aKožar, Maja 000245877 700__ $$aPintar, Marjeta 000245877 700__ $$aVolk, Tina 000245877 700__ $$aRednak, Miro 000245877 700__ $$aRac, Ilona 000245877 700__ $$aErjavec, Emil 000245877 773__ $$d2016 000245877 8564_ $$95f017e2d-065d-47b8-8231-8625cc4a6da9$$s377181$$uhttps://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/245877/files/EAAE%20Kiev_Agriculture%20and%20agricultural%20support%20in%20CIS.pdf 000245877 887__ $$ahttp://purl.umn.edu/245877 000245877 909CO $$ooai:ageconsearch.umn.edu:245877$$pGLOBAL_SET 000245877 912__ $$nSubmitted by Martin Banse (martin.banse@thuenen.de) on 2016-10-08T14:15:05Z No. of bitstreams: 1 EAAE Kiev_Agriculture and agricultural support in CIS.pdf: 377181 bytes, checksum: f1584aa50e3dcc04e26064f8d0e4a82e (MD5) 000245877 912__ $$nMade available in DSpace on 2016-10-08T14:15:05Z (GMT).
