Summary/Abstract: Even after 10 years since the war, neither BiH economy nor society can find the way leading to stabile development. Lack of prospect and poverty are increasingly present in the country. Solution of this problem is not possible without defining the strategy for economy development. Leading political parties or structures that have elected them are responsible for the fact that this strategy has not yet been defined. Definition and acceptance of development strategies primarily means analysis of country’s resources. Such analyses have already been done and don’t need to be repeated. The biggest problem, no doubt, is employment. Therefore, the development strategy has to deal with this problem first. Since agriculture offers relatively high opportunities for employment and analysis of development possibilities shows that BiH has necessary preconditions, development of agriculture needs to be stimulated. This is additionally confirmed by the fact that this country imports food in the value of approximately 1 billion EUR. The fact that around 2 billion KM is spent on food import and that the country can produce it itself is a loss of one thousand employment positions. Development of agriculture and production of medicines should be stimulated by the primary agriculture production. BiH also has additional resources for energy production. For development of mentioned activities, besides raw materials, BiH also has sufficient infrastructure as well as necessary professional profiles. Long-term development strategy should be followed by instruments of stimulating development policy. Instruments of development stimulation should be created by economy chambers. Proposals of development policy measures should be accepted by the BiH Parliament. In this way, they would become legal documents
