Russian agri-food sector between well-performing macroeconomic environment and institutional obstacles.

Auteur :

Description :
In the aftermah of the breakdown of the Russian foreign exchange market and financial system in August 1998 the macroeconomic environment recovered considerably, generating an output push in the agri-food sector. This improved the financial health of most producer, thus opening a window of opportunity enhancing the long run growth prospects. But it is not apparent whether the agri-food sector makes use of the augmented circumstances. Insufficient incentive systems due to non-enforcement of legal rules within as well as between firms and farms and lack of credibility of Russian government promote a rent-seeking behaviour of employer and employees.
