Abstract

In recent years, the productivity of agrifood sector rebounded in actuality due to global challenges caused by increasing food demand. Interest in this topic is marked mainly by higher prices of food products due to lower agricultural productivity, cited as one of the causes of the crisis in the long term, [1] and the need to increase productivity considered to be one of longterm solutions to the crisis [2]. Even in European Union countries, the productivity of agriculture and processing sector was again a topic of interest in light of several recent phenomena such as rising agricultural prices and their volatility, markets fragmentation and a significant decrease in consumer income impact on the current economic crisis. This paper presents several indicators of productivity in distribution and processing vegetable sector and the results suggest a very concentrated retail chain while the processing sector is doing progress amid a still weak organization of production.
