In this pre-accession period, the role of agricultural and rural development policy is crucial in order to prepare a viable farming sector that can withstand competitive pressures in the single market after joining the European Union. The economic and financial opportunities that the European Union provides through accessing the single market and the instruments of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) are additional strong incentives to prepare the agricultural sector for European Union integration. In order to maximize the benefits of the single market and of CAP measures, Albania needs to adjust agriculture support policies and align them to the CAP. In recent years, Albania has been making efforts to reform its agricultural and rural development policy and align it with the European Union CAP. The vision of the agricultural policy is based on the priorities of the Inter-sectorial Strategy for Agriculture and Rural Development (ISARD) 2014–2020, the National Strategy for Development and Integration (NSDI-II) 2015–2020, the National Programme for European Integration (NPEI) 2019–2021, GoA Program 2017–2020, as well as the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD) priorities.

Download or read book The Changing Face of Rural Space written by Julian Lampietti and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2009-05-04 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although at different stages of development, the countries of the Western Balkans—Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia—face similar challenges in transforming and modernizing their agricultural food production (agri-food) sectors. Their rural sectors have lagged behind the rest of the economy in growth and poverty reduction, their agri-food sectors are undercapitalized and highly fragmented, and their agro-processing capacities limited. Agricultural trade deficits are widening, climate change is posing increasing risks to farm incomes, and low-cost imports and changing consumer preferences are further eroding competitiveness. Added to this scenario are the challenges and opportunities of adopting the EU 'acquis communautaire' relating to agriculture. Based on recent World Bank reports prepared in collaboration with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the European Commission Directorate General for Agriculture and Rural Development, 'The Changing Face of Rural Space: Agriculture and Rural Development in the Western Balkans' identifies what is constraining agricultural competitiveness in these countries, examines public expenditures in agriculture, and diagnoses key challenges for agricultural policy makers. The book expands on previous findings to provide a strategic policy framework for transforming and modernizing the agri-food sector and, in the context of region’s ongoing process of integration with the European Union, creating a dynamic rural space in the Western Balkans. The book offers Western Balkan governments and international donors a shared vision of the goals and directions their agriculture and rural development policies and programs might take.
Book Synopsis An Agricultural Strategy for Albania by : World Bank
Download or read book An Agricultural Strategy for Albania written by World Bank and published by Washington, D.C., U.S.A. : World Bank. This book was released on 1992 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agriculture is, by far, the Albanian economy's most important sector in terms of value added and employment. During the political interregnum from July 1991 to March 1992 the sector was severely affected by input and foreign exchange shortages, social upheavals linked to the privatization of cooperative land and assets throughout the country, and disruptions caused by the absence of alternative distribution and allocation mechanisms to replace the collapsing centrally planned system. Social and economic chaos led to rapidly falling living standards for the vast majority of the population, especially in poor rural areas. Agricultural surpluses dwindled to almost nothing as Albania's 380,000 new private farmers concentrated on ensuring the subsistence of their families. This volume presents both short-term and medium-term recommendations on actions required to achieve the objectives of restoring food security, providing income and employment for the rural population, contributing to rapid economic recovery and managing the transition from a highly centralized command economy to a market economy in agriculture. The volume also presents a technical assistance program to strengthen government administrative capability during this transition period and supports the implementation of the program of actions. Eleven annexes and a statistical appendix offer detailed information on various aspects of the sector.

Book Synopsis Smallholders and family farms in Albania - Country study report 2019 by : Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Download or read book Smallholders and family farms in Albania - Country study report 2019 written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2020-06-01 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The background for conducting country studies on the challenges, needs and constraints of smallholders and family farms in seven countries has been a wish to further strengthen the Regional Initiative and develop the initiative towards a stronger programmatic approach at both the regional and country levels. To provide support to smallholders and family farms, there has been a need to develop a better understanding and knowledge platform of the main challenges, needs and constraints of smallholders and family farms in the specific country context. Even though many of the challenges are the same throughout the region, there are still significant variations among the countries; it is important to recognize and understand these variations when designing support to smallholders and family farms in each specific country. It has been the objectives of the country studies first to analyze the development trend and current state of smallholders and family farms in the specific country, second to study the current political priorities and policies affecting smallholders and family farms, and finally, based on the conclusions made, to provide recommendations, mainly at the policy level, on how to further support the development of commercial family farms and at the same time ensure in general inclusive growth, improved rural livelihood for women and men and the reduction of rural poverty for all. It is hoped that each country study will not only be relevant for FAO but also for governments, donors and other international organizations when formulating policy and preparing programmes.
Book Synopsis The Vanishing Farms by : Juna Miluka
Download or read book The Vanishing Farms written by Juna Miluka and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates the impact of international migration on technical efficiency, resource allocation and income from agricultural production of family farming in Albania. The results suggest that migration is used by rural households as a pathway out of agriculture: migration is negatively associated with the allocation of both labor and non-labor inputs in agriculture, while no significant differences can be detected in terms of farm technical efficiency or agricultural income. Whether the rapid demographic changes in rural areas triggered by massive migration, possibly combined with propitious land and rural development policies, will ultimately produce the conditions for more viable, high-return agriculture attracting larger investments remains to be seen.
Book Synopsis Rural Development Strategy by : Csaba Csáki
Download or read book Rural Development Strategy written by Csaba Csáki and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the larger role that the agricultural sector plays in the Eastern Europe and Central Asian (ECA) region, emphasis must be placed on the sector's sustained growth and prosperity. The Bank strategy for rural development in the ECA region during the early phase of transition emphasized the reform of agricultural policies and assistance in privatizing, restructuring, and rebuilding agriculture and agro-industrial complexes. In retrospect, it can be seen that the ECA countries concerned made the right choice when they set their objective to transform their socialized agriculture into a private-ownership and market-based system. Given the developments of the past decade, it is clear, however, that the initial expectations for the outcomes of such reforms were overly optimistic. The transition process in agriculture is far more complex than originally envisaged by both the countries themselves and the international community, including the Bank. Increased social problems and alarming growth of poverty have added a new, unexpected, dimension to the transition process. As the analysis indicates, the region's rural economy is still struggling to adjust to new economic realities, and this will require further refinement and adjustment of the Bank's approach as well. This volume, based on an overview of recent regional developments, summarizes the revised World Bank assistance strategy for rural development in the ECA region.

Book Synopsis Analysis of the Agricultural and Rural Development Policies of the Western Balkan Countries by : Sabahudin Bajramović
Download or read book Analysis of the Agricultural and Rural Development Policies of the Western Balkan Countries written by Sabahudin Bajramović and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The EU integration process is a highly complex process that involves the design and implementation of reforms in a wide range of areas. Although all of the Western Balkan (WB) countries are at different stages of development, they face similar challenges in policy reform and harmonisation, information systems and economic development, coupled with general underdevelopment and limited institutional capacity, which continue to obstruct the reform processes of the Western Balkans. In this context, adopting new policy instruments and approximating them to the EU acquis in agriculture and rural development requires the development of approaches for agricultural data analysis to shed light on what impacts the adopted policies may have on the farming sector. This will allow better understanding of the effectiveness and efficiency of adopted policies and thus can provide scientifically based support to policy making.^More comprehensive knowledge of the effects of individual policy measures on the development of the agricultural sector would allow both national support schemes and the Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance for Rural Development (IPARD) to be better targeted. In addition to the policy requirement for integrating the WB countries into the EU, extended regional cooperation is most important for future relations with the EU. It is an essential means of strengthening agriculture and rural development and consequently enhancing economic growth of the region. The main objectives of the report are to monitor and evaluate the current agricultural policy instruments in the WB countries and to compare them with the EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). The report covers three main aspects in relation to its aims and objectives: - It provides information on developments in the national agriculture policies of WB countries and compares them with EU CAP policies.^- It provides a cross-country comparative analysis of the national agricultural policy instruments and their effects on the food/farming sector. - It analyses the state of harmonisation of agricultural policies of the WB countries with the CAP. The report is a result of continuous work in the region carried out in close cooperation between policy makers and research institutions in the WB countries. The report provides comprehensive information about and analyses of agricultural policy development in the WB countries to support policy making as well as to give a solid basis for future cooperation and continued dynamic dialogue between policy makers and the research community.

In this PHD thesis is raised an hypothesis with favorable and unfavorable arguments related to partnerships.Through statistical analysis using Maan -Whitney criteria it is provided that the selected respondents in the area consider the necessity of organization and operation of partnerships for rural development. The main operation areas of partnerships were: partnerships for promotion and development of agriculture, partnerships for promotion and development of fruit-grapes, partnerships for promotion and development of livestock, partnerships for promotion and development of furnishing, partnerships for promotion and development of marketing, et
Book Synopsis Rural Development Strategy Review of Ethiopia by : OECD
Download or read book Rural Development Strategy Review of Ethiopia written by OECD and published by Org. for Economic Cooperation & Development. This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Addressing rural development is key for Ethiopia's growth process. A series of government-led structural reforms have contributed to sustained growth in the country over the last two decades as well as to considerable poverty reduction in rural areas. However, Ethiopia faces critical challenges it will need to overcome to meet the needs of a growing rural population. In practice, this will require updating the existing rural development strategy in order to better integrate the interaction of rural and urban areas. Policy approaches that account for the fast urbanisation process experienced in the country will therefore be key to improving the well-being of rural populations and promoting national growth. This report takes a spatial approach to study Ethiopia's rural development strategies. It highlights the need to develop stronger and more functional linkages between rural and urban areas. As such, the development of intermediary cities and small urban centres provides large scope for inclusive rural transformation. The report is the result of rigorous analysis, and extensive consultations with national and international stakeholders. It identifies some of the key challenges faced by rural areas and provides a series of recommendations to enhance Ethiopia's rural development strategies.
