HomeFarming and rural development in Ukraine
Making dualisation work
Julkaisun metatiedot
This report syntheses the findings of the European Neighbourhood Policy project on Ukraine "Prospects of the farming sector and rural development in ENP-countries, the case of Ukraine". After independence in 1991, a dualized agricultural system has emerged in Ukraine, comprising corporate farms and traditional family farms. Corporate farms are largely oriented on exports and benefit from important economies of scale, particularly in mechanized operations, input purchase and marketing of outputs. Traditional family farms cultivate the former private plots. They specialize more on products from animal husbandry and horticulture with higher value added per hectare but their access to foreign markets and even to domestic marketing chains is limited. Furthermore, traditional farmers lack the social amenities they used to have access to before the transition, and their parcels are fragmented over many plots. With its wealth of natural resources and its relatively well educated population, Ukraine has ample means to let both parts of this dualized agriculture flourish in parallel. There is no need to prioritize either of them. Rather the study advocates implementing property rights beyond the regular ownership titles of parcels, such as the right of passage across plots to ensure their accessibility and user rights in commons. Land productivity needs protection as well. Large agricultural exports amount to large outflow of nutrients. Domestic recycling of plant nutrients and fertilizer imports are needed to prevent soil fertility loss. Finally, as regards foreign trade, it draws attention to product labeling as a vehicle for institutional innovation and improved governance, with labels requiring satisfaction of social as well as environmental standards.
