In the world, many countries have identified key agricultural products to encourage development. However, so far, there is no unified set of indicators to identify key agricultural products among countries around the world.
Instead, depending on the natural, economic and social conditions as well as the political and social security objectives of each country, they choose key agricultural products to focus on development.
Through an overview of international experience in key product identification and development, there are four main groups of criteria that most countries use to identify their key agricultural products, including:
1- Groups economic criteria;
2- Group of social criteria;
3- Group of environmental criteria;
4- Criteria for product development priority.
