Production and Marketing in Latvia
• Recent years increased production (since 2010 increased 22,2 %), growing export( 2014-19,8% from total export, but declined for 6% in comparison with 2013) – agriculture as export industry, possibilities for development;
• The farms strongly benefit from production of products with added value (food industry role in GDP increased for 18,3% from 2008-2013) ;
• Developed supportive legislation for promotion of home producers (since 2009 from from 365 to 1 031;
• Increased role of farmers’ cooperation (LKPS Latraps, KS Musmaju darzeni etc.) ;
• Importance to use effective production, marketing, promotion methods and channels;
BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT:• Uncompetitive in comparison to other EU countries- the lowest financial
support for agricultural production per ha in EU and Geopolitical situation – Russian market (In 2013 the food items covered 37.9% from the total volume of exports to Russia, consisted: 50.3% of milk and dairy products, 24.5% other food items, 10.5% sausages and similar food , 5.4% of fresh fish, 4.2% fruit and nuts, 3.1% meat and subproducts and 2% vegetables.)
