Agriculture in Georgia − the condition of the sector and its importance in the process of socio-economic development of the country and its regions

Summary/Abstract: Due to natural conditions (favourable climate and soil conditions) and the agrarian tradition, the agricultural sector in Georgia has a significant growth potential. Despite the fact that almost 40% of the population work in the agricultural occupations, this branch is not a priority for the Georgian economy. Literature, strategic documents prepared by the authorities of the country and the available statistical data indicate numerous problems blocking the development of the sector, thus inhibiting the development of the country and its regions, largely inhabited by the rural population. The aim of the study is to present the condition of the agricultural sector and its importance in the process of socio-economic development of Georgia and its regions. The survey was expanded with the analysis of demographic data for the rural areas in Georgia.
