Agriculture is one of few sectors where the Republic of Moldova has a competitive advantage offering the possibility to better integrate in the international division of labor. The aim of this research was to evaluate the competitiveness of Moldova's agricultural products to discern those with superior performance and greater potential to stimulate export growth and foster the country's economic development. To evaluate Moldova's agri-food product competitiveness, the authors applied foreign trade indicators such as the Net Export Index (NEI). The analyzed secondary data from Comtrade Database were used. The time series belong to 2011-2022. Upon analysis, it becomes apparent that a range of factors such as export price fluctuations and climate change present divergent outlooks for different agricultural products. Among these, horticulture, particularly stone fruit production, emerges as the most promising sub-sector. This is notably due to the country's deficit in precipitation and irrigation water, which can be more efficiently utilized in orchards compared to field crops. Additionally, beekeeping stands out as the sole livestock area displaying a positive trend, potentially serving as a catalyst for development within Moldova's agricultural sector.
