| Abstract: | The paper focuses on Hungary's trade in agricultural and food products and examines its relative competitiveness vis-a-vis the EU. The authors' analyse is based on revealed comparative advantage (RCA). This is a common approach to analysing trade data. The article briefly reviews the literature on the competitiveness of Hungarian agriculture and food production during the 1990s. The paper also outlines the approaches to measuring RCA indices and the potential importance of government interventions. Results for Hungary are reported and the stability of the RCA indices is discussed. A summary and conclusions are presented in this paper. The paper provides a substantial list of references on this subject. |
