Abstract

Horticulture sector – in addition to grain and meat sector – is the third pillar of agriculture. However, in recent years the production of vegetables in Hungary and in other EU Member States also decreased significantly. Several countries in EU need to import some vegetables and processed vegetables, while Hungary is still net exporter as regards the most of vegetables. In our study, secondary data were analyzed by different statistical methods and the current situation in the vegetable sector was characterized by using this results. Some countries of the European Union play a key role in vegetable sector; other countries grow vegetables in negligible quantities. Of course, significant quantities are also exported to countries outside the EU by the main vegetable producing Member States. In this Member States product structures are similar. The amount of vegetables grown in Hungary - compared to less fertile areas - can be said to be relatively high compared to the EU average. However, the ratio of foreign trade of some vegetables is different. In turn export demand of Hungarian vegetable products is significantly higher than the amount of tradable goods of Hungary. Solution of this problem is to higher rates of processed vegetable products, implementation of technological improvements, better coordination of transport as well as organizations of vegetable producers. ---------------------------------------------- A kertészeti ágazat – a gabona és a húsvertikum mellett – a mezőgazdaság harmadik pillére. A zöldségtermesztés azonban az utóbbi években Magyarországon és az EU más tagállamaiban is jelentősen visszaesett. Némelyik zöldségféléből és feldolgozott zöldségekből az EU számos országa behozatalra szorul, míg Magyarország a legtöbb zöldségféle tekintetében még mindig nettó exportőrnek minősül. Vizsgálataink során szekunder adatokat különböző statisztikai módszerekkel elemeztünk, majd az így kapott eredmények segítségével jellemeztük a zöldségágazat aktuális helyzetét. Az Európai Unió zöldségágazatában néhány ország játszik meghatározó szerepet, a többi ország elhanyagolható mennyiségben termeszt zöldségeket. A fő zöldségtermesztő tagállamok természetesen jelentős mennyiséget exportálnak is az EU-n kívüli országokba. Termékszerkezetük hasonló. A Magyarországon termesztett zöldségek mennyisége – a kisebb termőterülethez viszonyítva – az EU átlagához képest viszonylag magasnak mondható. Az egyes zöldségfélék külkereskedelmi aránya azonban eltér egymástól. Pedig zöldség termékeink exportpiaci kereslete lényegesen nagyobb, mint amennyi értékesíthető árualappal rendelkezik hazánk. Erre a problémára megoldást jelenthetne a zöldségtermékek magasabb arányú feldolgozása, ehhez technológiai fejlesztések kivitelezése, a szállítás jobb összehangolása, valamint a term
