The economic transition and market globalization processes have triggered structural changes in the Macedonian agriculture and influence on the efficiency and competitiveness in the pig production sub-sector. This paper aims to identify the level of technical efficiency on pig farms in the Republic of Macedonia. The Data Envelopment Analysis approach is used to measure the efficiency level, taking into consideration the exact quantity of inputs used in the production in relation to a given quantity of output. The data is analysed by making comparative analyses of the managerial behaviour and other non-measurable variables that influence the efficiency. The results determine what managerial activities influence the efficiency. They indicate the type and level of inputs that need to be changed, so that farms could reach the same technical efficiency achieved by the best farmers.

Macedonia has been a candidate-country for EU membership since 2005. The EU integrative process, without doubt, will have an impact on the Macedonian economy and particularly on the agricultural sector. So far, the farmers’ attitude and intentions with regard to the EU integration and accession have not been thoroughly investigated. Respectively, the objective of the paper is to provide understanding of the Macedonian farmers’ attitude and behavioural intentions in the context of EU accession and the potential policy and market changes. Furthermore, another issue is to establish whether there are significant discrepancies among farmers and their attitude towards EU accession. The results revealed that the farmer community in the country is quite heterogeneous in terms of farm and farmers’ profiles and farm management practices. The cluster analysis suggests that there are four clusters according to which the variables explaining the attitudes were significantly different, provisionally labelled as “optimist “, “moderate”, “restrained” and “sceptic”.

Macedonian livestock, dairy and grain sectors and the EU accession impact

The Republic of Macedonia is in the process of integrating into the European Union (EU) and adjusting its policies through reforms in policy, regulations and institutions. This paper attempts to provide an answer to the question: what would be the impact on the Macedonian livestock, dairy and grain sectors of Macedonia integrating into the EU. In order to forecast the impact of the EU accession, the research uses the partial equilibrium model as a comprehensive tool for modelling the complex nature of the agricultural markets. The model simulation foresees the changes of the modelled sub-sectors in production, net-trade and income. The baseline scenario predicts a positive development for almost all selected commodities, with the exception of the beef sector, which is highly uncompetitive prior to the accession. Three EU accession scenarios foresee positive developments in the beef, lamb and cow's milk markets, while a negative development is expected in the pig meat and grains markets.

YOUNG CONSUMERS� PREFERENCES FOR MACEDONIAN WINE
(Journal Agriculture and Forestry, 2016-06-30)

Macedonian strategy for viticulture and wine production singles out young consumers as a target group of consumers for further increase of the production value and development of wine culture. Therefore, we aim to determinate the presence of young population on the Skopje Wine Winter festival in 2014 and to understand their preferences towards domestic wine and its quality. We performed structured questionnaires to 420 visitors and segmented young consumers as a focus group. We used conceptual model for analysis of consumer attitudes and Chi2-test in Stata 12.0 and StataCorp 2011, for testing the hypotheses for the consumers’ perception of quality wine. The results showed that younger consumers were the most present category on the Wine festival. In general, they do not differ from other age groups in terms of their preferences for domestic quality wine, except that this category showed readiness to pay a higher price for domestic quality wine. The quality perception of domestic wine is satisfactory, which creates an opportunity for the wineries to target and to promote their wine to the new segments of young consumers, committed to purchase domestic wine.
