“…Bezić et al [35] provide a complete analysis of the comparative advantage and the overall export competitiveness of the food manufacturing sector in 27 EU countries. They conclude that, although positive relative and absolute values of the export activity of the specified industry are apparent, higher absolute and relative values of imports dampen such positive effects.…”

The question of the sources of agricultural competitiveness is widely discussed on the farm and sectoral levels in the European Union. This paper assesses the competitiveness of the plant production using the combination of trade measures and strategic management measures in the selected European countries related to the Czech Republic. Thus, the paper evaluates and identifies the sources of competitiveness of plant production. In the case of Belgium and the Netherlands, labour and capital factors have a significant influence on production; in the case of the new member states, these factors are less important, and, conversely, market competitiveness factors are more crucial. The continuous convergence process between Belgium and the Netherlands is illustrated. The divergence between the Netherlands and the rest of the countries is also visible. There is a stable connection between the Czech Republic and Austria, France, and Slovakia. It can be mentioned that there is no statistically significant difference in the comparative advantage between 2005 and 2019, except in the case of France. Analysing sources of competitiveness among the countries of interest is a possible tool for the future direction of trade policies.

“…Intra-EU exports of food products in 2021 amounted to nearly EUR 303.7 billion. Studies of the food industry conducted in the literature are mainly concerned with assessing the value of exports, export destinations and structure, and ranking trade performance (Bezić et al, 2013, Carraresi, Banterle, 2015Juchniewicz and Łukiewska, 2015;Matkovski et al, 2021). Much less attention is paid to the cause-effect analyzes define the determinants of exports.…”

Purpose:The main objective of the study was to assess the relationship between labor productivity and the volume of food industry exports in EU Member States. Design/Methodology/Approach: The relationships between labor productivity and the volume of exports in the food industry in 2013, 2016 and 2019 in the EU Member States were analyzed. The scatter plot, Pearson's linear correlation coefficients and linear regression models were used for the analysis. Models with no time lag and with annual and two-year time lags of the labor productivity index were created. Findings: The conducted empirical research confirmed the existence of an impact of labor productivity in the food industry on the volume of exports to the EU market. The strongest relationships between these categories were observed in models without a time delay of the labor productivity indicator. Moreover, it was observed that the relationship between labor productivity and export volume is became stronger in the subsequent years. Practical Implications: Identifying the factors influencing the export volume of an industry is important in the context of long-term and effective economic policy-making, taking measures to increase exports, industry competitiveness and stimulate economic growth. Originality/Value: The study is an attempt to fill the research gap identified in the literature on the subject in the field of cause-effect analysis explaining the factors behind the export activity of the food industry on the EU market.

“…The study focuses on the result‐oriented aspect of competitiveness. Various indices are used to measure competitive performance based on the performance of international trade (Bezic et al, 2012; Carraresi & Banterle, 2013; Frohberg & Hartmann, 1997; Pawlak, 2013). However, only some elements of competitive performance are studied.…”

The objective of the study is to fill in gaps in research in the area of multifaceted evaluation of competitive performance of the food industry in European Union member states. The study involved calculation of the export share in the world market, the ratio of shown comparative advantage, the ratio of coverage of import with export and the Grubel–Lloyd index and then construction of a synthetic measure of international competitiveness in the years 2009–2012. The group of the states with a high competitive position of their food industry included the Netherlands, France, Spain, and Denmark. In the case of the Netherlands and France, this fact was determined, above all, by their high share in the export world, and in the case of Spain and Denmark, their significant comparative advantage. A considerable market share was also characteristic of Germany, which was ultimately classified as a country with a medium competitive position due to a relatively small importance of the industry in the entire export of this country.
