Abstract

A tanulmány a magyar mezőgazdaság versenyképességét vizsgálja meg az Európai Unióval szemben. A versenyképesség mérésére a megnyilvánuló komparatív előnyök négy különböző indexét használjuk az 1992 és 1998 közötti időszakra. A konzisztenciatesztek azt sugallják, hogy ezek az indexek kevésbé alkalmasak arra, hogy akár kardinális vagy ordinális mércéül szolgáljanak. Ugyanakkor a megnyilvánuló komparatív előnyök különböző indexei jól használhatók annak megállapítására, hogy Magyarországnak egy adott termékből megnyilvánul-e komparatív előnye, vagy sem. Az eredmények arra utalnak, hogy a hazai mezőgazdaságban a kilencvenes években lezajlott lényeges változások ellenére a megnyilvánuló komparatív előnyök szerkezete stabil maradt. Számításaink szerint Magyarországnak komparatív előnyei vannak az EU-val szemben az élő állatok és a húsok esetében, viszont a gabonaféléknél nem. Ez ellentmond a korábbi tanulmányok eredményeivel, amelyek más módszereket alkalmaztak a versenyképesség mérésére.
