      abstract = {Public support for agriculture in R. Macedonia is  characterized by a significant evolution, but it is still  largely affected by the lack of a consistent long-term  development-oriented strategy. Within this framework  measures for agricultural and rural development are  changing on annual basis generating consistent  disorientation among final users.

However, with the  Strategy for Approximation of the Macedonian Agro-Food  Sector to the CAP of the EU, Macedonian agricultural policy  has taken a major step towards the process of  identification of its own resources in order to create the  necessary basis for the design of a new agriculture and  rural development policy.

The paper aims at assessing the  place that agriculture has in the overall economy and  especially in the rural areas of R. Macedonia, analyzing  the basic structure and income and investigating how  subsidies and support strategies are evolving in light of  the European integration process.},
