ECONOMIC POLICY OF BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA AND ITS IMPACT ON THE IMPROVEMENT OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION

Abstract

The future in agriculture raises complex demands of the overall economy in terms of possible integration and coherence (politics, 
agriculture, ecology, etc.). Those relations impose an obligation for authority which brings economic policy for the development of 
opportunities to improve agricultural production There are needs for reducing dependence on imported agricultural products which are the 
result of aspiration of the population and agricultural producers and it should be the goal of economic policy makers. As an important 
economic activity, in which the main motive for the production of sufficient quantities of food for local people, agriculture is becoming an 
unavoidable issue in economic development plans of the country. Keeping it in mind as well as a number of cultivated, not sown area in 
Bosnia and Herzegovina, we can conclude that the agricultural production in our country is neglected. This is a result of unaccountable 
attitude of political authorities to this acctivity. Such conclusion is the result of the more obvious fact that the farm products are importing 
which are adequate for the domestic market, or their production can be organized in the country. The paper  sets the scientific, technical 
and methodological foundations for the development and improvement of agriculture in Bosnia and Herzegovina, to Indicate that the 
present system of the agriculture managing in this country is the main generator of its developmant inefficiency. It is important to prove 
that the previous policy of agricultural development in Bosnia and Herzegovina did not produce the expected results.  In planning of 
developmant and improvement of agriculture it is necessary to use experiences of  countries where personal interests doesn`t prevail over  
the national interests. The paper takes into account the complex economic and social situation present in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which 
will greatly affect the implementation of such an optimistic given project. However, in the future we need new projects and new ideas, 
which is the main motto of this work. The purpose of this paper is a theoretical approach to a possible project that  could be the backbone 
of agricultural development and promotion of this important activity in Bosnia and Herzegovina.The aim is to emphasize the need for 
planning the development and improvement of agricultural production, based on the observation of the arable land`s value, insted on 
opinion of certain groups of people. In that sense we look for the factors that are important for the realization of the project. It is 
neccessary to establish new relationships, boundaries and content model of the economy based on the physical, climatic and other 
benefits for agricultural development of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
