Abstract

This paper presents the contribution to the creation of the Serbian rural development model which is based on balanced regional rural development (BRRD), and requires a constitution of an adequate policy of BRRD as a multidimensional process: political-institutional, socio-cultural, economic and ecologic, concerned with the idea of an integrated approach to achieving strategic aims in the areas of: 1) Establishing a national network for a BRRD; 2) Improving the value of human capital in rural regions, 3) Ensuring that the agricultural sector be competitive; 4) Developing a non-farm economy; and 5) Protecting natural resources and environment. It is also necessary that some measures should be adopted for the purpose of the implementation of the programmes, the projects and the activities defined in the strategy of the Sustainable regional rural development. Bearing in mind that strengthening of rural development policy is becoming increasingly important and that it represents one of the main development priorities of the EU, this could be a good indicator for Serbia if it wants to become a full member of the European Union. Besides empirical proofs of the benefits of presented recommendations, this paper will also highlight the theoretical concepts that are the foundations for the justification of their acceptance.
