“…As a consequence of the proper and timely understanding of the relevance of the process, low targeted policies were introduced which negatively affected the outcomes of the process. In fact, the two opposite approaches introduced to govern the transition process to the market -the big bang versus the gradualist approach (Sachs and Woo, 1994;Roland, 2000) -presented several unintended effects, e.g., increase in poverty and inequality between and within the countries (Csáki and Jambor, 2010), worsening economic divergence and living conditions (Monasterolo and Benni, 2013). This resulted in the todays' unfinished transition, in particular in the agricultural sector which struggles to meet the requirements (in terms of investments, productivity and quality) of the international market, determining winners and losers from transition (Iara and Traistaru, 2003;Csáki and Jambor, 2010;Lackenbauer, 2004;Nickel, 2005;Monasterolo, 2008).…”

The aim of this paper is to investigate the agri-environmental sustainability whereas statistical improvements provide a considerable backbone for understanding the three E's balance rule, environment, equity, economy. Then, access data to key resources such as food and water are still not fully available and comparable between countries. This opens several questions in terms of what kind of policy measures we effectively need and where to support climate smart agriculture and build resilience to climate change. By analysing food data, we identify gaps and bottlenecks which may affect the understanding of the magnitude of the food security challenge. We study a post-transition country, Serbia, chosen for the relevance of the Understanding limits to data informative power for sustainable food policies 301 agricultural sector on the living conditions of rural population, and the opportunities for the transition to sustainable farming and food production. Finally, we give insights for optimisation of the use of statistical info by highlighting informative power and limits of available statistical sources.
