RECENT TRENDS IN THE ROMANIAN AGRIFOOD TRADE WITH HUNGARY

Camelia Gavrilescu

Abstract


The present paper is analyzing recent evolutions of the Romanian agrifood trade with Hungary. In the years when both countries were CEFTA members (1997-2004), Hungary has been the main partner in the Romanian agrifood trade. Since Romania joined the EU in 2007, the agrifood trade volume between the two countries increased spectacularly: 8.6 times for exports (dispatches), and 4.5 times for imports (arrivals) (2011/2006). In 2010 and 2011, Hungary was the third, respectively the second destination for Romanian agrifood intra-EU dispatches. On the other hand, during 2007-2011, Hungary has been the first source for the intra-EU arrivals in Romania. The agrifood bilateral trade balance is still negative for our country, although it decreased in value terms in 2010-2011. The paper is analyzing as well the composition by products of the bilateral trade.

Keywords
