Present and future perspectives of niche crops export on the world markets
Abstract
There is conducted research on development of niche crops in Ukraine, identified tendencies of its production and export increase. Niche crops such as chickpeas, lentils, sorghum, berries and nuts are rare non- traditional crops, which production efficiency in recent years has increased.
It is analyzed main niche criteria on niche market: low development of this market, excess demand over supply, low competitiveness, high purchase prices and high level of production profitability.
It is concluded that main volumes of these products are exporting, that’s why domestic producers have to constantly monitor situation on the world market and try to make a projections on concrete crop, to diversificate niche crops production with taking into account its efficiency level and constantly develop of supply value chains.
It is substantiated ways of development of export-oriented production of niche crops: stimulation of development of production and selling infrastructure, giving to an exporters access to infrastructure objects on international level, improvement of legislative base with harmonization to international standards, which will support export of domestic products on international agricultural market. Key mechanisms of entering on new markets should be cooperation with big companies in the field of production and selling of niche crops.
