Raspberry Production Trends in Serbia

Raspberry represents the main export „brand“ of fruit production in Serbia. In the paper, the production of raspberries was analyzed using a quantitative research method, with the aim of determining the trend of its production indicators, i.e. area, production and yield. The time period of the analysis included available data obtained from the database of the Republic Institute of Statistics from 2006 to 2023. The results showed that raspberry production is dominant in relation to its production in the surrounding, i.e. neighboring countries. The areas under this fruit, as well as its production, show an increasing trend, while the raspberry yield in the observed period records a slight decreasing trend. The research provides a solid basis for further research in this area of fruit production in Serbia, as well as for making further rational macroeconomic decisions.
