    Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Moldova

    This paper presents such a stocktaking
    of land reform and farm restructuring in four countries
    (Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Kazakhstan, and Moldova) that have
    had particular difficulties with land reform, farm
    restructuring, farm performance, or rural poverty. It is
    organized by case studies, each of which is designed to
    analyze a central conundrum about land reform and farm
    restructuring in an individual country. Much of the

    Moldova

    Changes in climate and their impact on agricultural systems and rural economies are already evident throughout Europe and Central Asia (ECA). Adaptation measures now in use in Moldova, largely piecemeal efforts, will be insufficient to prevent impacts on agricultural production over the coming decades. There is growing interest at country and development partner levels to have a better understanding of the exposure, sensitivities, and impacts of climate change at farm level, and to develop and prioritize adaptation measures to mitigate the adverse consequences.

    Romania

    Climate change is a huge challenge for
    the agriculture and rural development (ARD) sector in
    Romania. On the one hand, agriculture is a source of
    greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and must therefore be
    expected to contribute towards the climate change mitigation
    goals of the Europe 2020 strategy. European farmers,
    foresters, rural businesses, and other local people
    therefore need to start paying much greater attention to

    Asia, Central Asia, Europe, Eastern Europe

    This volume presents a synthesis of the multi-country collaborative program of analytical and advisory activities titled reducing vulnerability to climate change in European and Central Asian (ECA) agricultural systems. Climate change and its impacts on agricultural systems and rural economies are already evident throughout the ECA region. Adaptation measures now in use in the region-largely piecemeal efforts-would be insufficient to prevent impacts on agricultural production over the coming decades.

    Romania

    The Romanian government recognizes that
    there are current and future problems related to the risk of
    old-age poverty among elderly farmers, and has been working
    on sustainable solutions to avert this risk. The main
    objective of this report is to provide recommendations to
    the policy makers in Romania in designing a non-contributory
    program for poor elderly, including farmers. To this end,
    the report (i) evaluates the current semi-subsistence

    Bulgaria

    Although Bulgaria now implements the
    European Union's (EU's) "common"
    agricultural policy (CAP), national policymakers still
    maintain responsibility to tailor CAP implementation to meet
    the specific development needs of the country. The National
    Rural Development Program (NRDP) very appropriately lays out
    the challenges that Bulgarian agriculture and rural
    development face, but the early implementation of a

    Romania

    This report presents the outcomes of the
    functional review of Romania's agricultural
    administration. Given the sectoral and territorial relevance
    of its regulatory domain, Romania s Agricultural and Rural
    Development Administration is a key administrative body
    undergoing this Functional Review. The review will examine
    whether the policy goals and objectives of the Ministry of
    Agriculture and Rural Development (MADR) and its agencies

    Ukraine

    The agri-food sector is an important
    part of the Ukrainian economy. Agriculture could make an
    even larger contribution to economic growth and the vitality
    of rural areas in Ukraine than is currently the case.
    Ukraine has the agro-climatic potential to be a major player
    on world agricultural markets. Agricultural competitiveness
    in Ukraine also suffers from inadequate systems to test and
    document food product quality and food safety.

    Russia

    The overall finding of this report is
    that much agricultural policy is made at the regional level,
    and here the explicit price, and trade policy distortions
    are significantly worse than at the federal level. The
    result is patchwork of inconsistent policies, that has
    fragmented the Russian national market. The most serious
    policy issues at the federal level, are in the legal
    framework, the continued state domination of some markets,
