Development Policy Advisory Public Service in Agriculture in the Republic of Serbia

Under the advisory public services in agriculture mean all institutions that publicly declare that they are in the service of agriculture. The main objective of the establishment of these services is to facilitate agricultural production. These services include: various institutes such as the Institute of Agriculture seed, protection from disease and dr., Agricultural services, veterinary, anti-hail service, Department of Pomology, National Institute of Viticulture. In the countries of Southeast Europe, among which is Serbia and such services are still underdeveloped and are in the phase of constitution. It is necessary to support the development of these services because it is a regulated market is part of an integrated rural development. Drawing on the positive experience of developed countries in the EU and beyond, and in connection with the establishment and operation of agricultural advisory services, all the countries of South East Europe during the last decade of the 20th century established this service. The fact that in the formation of agricultural extension has not implemented a unique organizational model, and that in the current functioning of these services are not everywhere achieved satisfactory results, indicating, among other things, that there are no universal solutions for all situations.
