Abstract

Global trade liberalization increased the flows of agricultural products also from transition countries. Particularly Russian Federation has become one of the world leading exporters of wheat, which however, due to major deficits in the national food safety regulations, do not always meet the stringent food safety standards of the developed countries. The quantitative estimation of trade impact of food standards on exports from transition countries, conducted through econometric analysis during the first phase of the current research, resulted in a statistically highly significant 4,33% decrease in value of wheat exports, in case of 1% stricter standards. The second phase of the study presents the investigation of Russian national food safety regulations along cereal value chain, and aspires to evaluate the possible compliance of Russian norms with EU standards, aiming to increase the exports of Russian wheat to EU countries.
