Resumen
Descripción
We analysed the situation, trends, degree of processing and export
competitiveness of agro-food products in Slovenia's international trade in period
2002 - 2007. We used statistical data according to the combined nomenclature of the
customs tariff, where agro-food products are classified in the first 24 groups of the
system. We divided them into primary (agricultural or non-processed) and secondary
(food or processed) commodities, using the UN methodology (BEC Rev. 3) and
Eurostat’s conversion tables. Export competitiveness was measured using the
Aiginger method based on comparing the quantities, values and prices of products at
the lowest level of classification. Our analysis measuring the export competitiveness
of Slovenian agro-food products shows an unfavourable situation and development
trends.
