Abstract

This article examines the external influences that affect the export of agri-food products of the Republic of Moldova in a constantly changing global economic context. In recent decades, the Republic of Moldova has made significant progress in diversifying its economy, and exports are an essential engine of this development. With a rich agricultural sector and varied natural resources, the country has a solid base for expanding foreign markets. In this context, the article analyzes the main groups of agri-food products with export potential, products of the vegetable kingdom and the food industry, highlighting how each of them contributes to economic growth. The proposed article emphasizes the importance of an integrated approach to the export of agri-food products, involving both the regulations of state authorities and the political and economic approaches of international organizations, providing a comprehensive assessment of the factors that influence this economic activity. Opportunities are identified that can be exploited to improve export performance, diversify markets and adopt advanced processing and preservation technologies. In the same context, the intentions of the Republic of Moldova to participate in supply chains and the global and regional commercial landscape are seen, highlighting the adaptability of the agri-food sector to these unexpected challenges. Through an analysis of recent export statistics, the products with the greatest growth potential are identified and strategies are proposed for a more competitive position on the international agri-food market, transforming current challenges into sustainable opportunities for the country's economic development.
