The objective of the study is to fill in gaps in research in the area of multifaceted evaluation of competitive performance of the food industry in European Union member states. The study involved calculation of the export share in the world market, the ratio of shown comparative advantage, the ratio of coverage of import with export and the Grubel–Lloyd index and then construction of a synthetic measure of international competitiveness in the years 2009–2012. The group of the states with a high competitive position of their food industry included the Netherlands, France, Spain, and Denmark. In the case of the Netherlands and France, this fact was determined, above all, by their high share in the export world, and in the case of Spain and Denmark, their significant comparative advantage. A considerable market share was also characteristic of Germany, which was ultimately classified as a country with a medium competitive position due to a relatively small importance of the industry in the entire export of this country.

欧盟成员国食品工业国际竞争表现的多样性

该研究的目的是填补欧盟成员国食品工业竞争绩效的多方面评估领域的研究空白。该研究包括计算世界市场上的出口份额，显示出的比较优势的比率，进口与出口的覆盖率以及Grubel-Lloyd指数，然后构建2009-2012年国际竞争力的综合指标。 。在食品工业中具有较高竞争地位的州包括荷兰，法国，西班牙和丹麦。对于荷兰和法国而言，这一事实首先取决于它们在出口世界中的较高份额，而对于西班牙和丹麦而言，则是其明显的比较优势。德国也具有相当大的市场份额，由于该行业在德国整个出口中的重要性相对较小，德国最终被归类为中等竞争国家。[EconLit引文：F14，L66]。
