Oblici konkurencije u prehrambenoj industriji Jugoslavije[Patterns of Competition in Food Industry of Yugoslavia]

The article considers the patterns of competition in Yugoslav food industry. This industry means as one of the most competitively part of Yugoslav economy. The analysis is based on the official statistical data of ZOP and Statistical Bureau, by the using of standard methodological method for the measurement of supply concentration. It is showed that in this industry (manufacture of food products, beverages and tobaco) the supply concentration is very high, with strong monopolistic and oligopolistic structures in production of many product. These results accept the conclusion that the market of food production in Yugoslavia isn’t satisfied, and that gives the possibilities for further development of this industry, e.g. the improvement of new production and expansion of exchange of food products on the Balkans and with other countries. U radu se analiziraju oblici konkurencije u prehrambenoj industriji Jugoslavije, koja se inače smatra jednim od konkurentnijih delova privrede. Analiza je zasnovana na podacima Zavoda za obračun i plaćanje i Zavoda za statistiku, korišćenjem standardnih metodoloških postupaka za merenje koncen-tracije ponude. Pokazano je da je u ovim industrijskim granama (proizvodnja prehrambenih proizvoda, proizvodnja pića, proizvodnja stočne hrane i proizvodnja i prerada duvana) stepen koncentracije ponude veoma visok, sa jakim monopolskim i oligopolskim strukturama u proizvodnji mnogih proizvoda. Ovi rezultati potvrđuju da tržište još nije zasićeno, odnosno da pruža značajan prostor za dalji razvoj ove industrije, i to kako u smislu povećanja broja proizvođača, tako i u smislu intenziviranja razmene ovih proizvoda na prostorima balkanskih zemalja, ali i u većem okruženju.
