Abstract
In this study we try to assess the progress of the transformation process in Ukrainian agri-food
sector. The development of foreign trade may serve as indicator of success of market reforms.
Thus we analyse the changes in the trade structure of agri-food sector during 1996-2005. Also
we compute indicators of inter- (RTA Index) and intra-industrial (Grubel-Lloyd Index,
Brülhart A-Index) trade for this period. These indicators provide information about competitiveness
of Ukrainian products, type and development of trade flows. We discuss also which
policy measures are necessary for further economic integration of Ukraine into world markets
