Economics of Agriculture, Year 67, No. 4, 2020, (pp. 1191-1204), Belgrade
The analysis of individual indicators of GFSI, i.e. food security performed at the level 
of the Republic of Serbia and neighbouring countries shows that, most often, same 
indicators (with values above 75.0) contribute to the improvement of food system and 
food security of Serbia and all neighbouring countries.
Two indicators can be singled out as the most significant weaknesses of Serbian food 
system in 2019: public expenditure on agricultural research and development and gross 
domestic product per capita expressed in purchasing power parity. These indicators are 
also the worst indicators of food security in all analyzed neighbouring countries.
Faster economic development of the country, higher public expenditures on agricultural 
research and development and innovation necessary to increase agricultural 
productivity and reduce harmful effects on the environment can significantly improve 
the food system, quality and food safety in Serbia. Additionally, recommendations and 
national nutrition guides, as well as plans and food strategies can also contribute to the 
improvement of Serbian position comparing to neighbouring countries.
