Abstract

After the collapse of Soviet Union in 1991, 11 former Soviet Republics signed an agreement to establish the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), and each country is committed to its transition based on market economy. The significant differences among the CIS countries can be observed at the levels of economic welfare, employment, and labor forces. In this study, we review the economic and agricultural situation in the CIS countries at the macro level during the transition. We also review the agricultural development in each country, including reformations, agricultural production, and marketing system with the SWOT analysis. Finally, we summarize the potential and strategies of each country for agricultural cooperation at the international level.
