PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY AS A FACTOR IN THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE HORTICULTURE SECTOR IN THE EUROPEAN UNION

ABSTRACT. Franco et al. present some economic and social implication of horticultural, floricultural and nursery based rehabilitation programs for people with intellectual and psychological disabilities. According to the EC-DGA, production in the EU is characterized by rapid and significant fluctuations in supply and demand for products which are highly perishable. On Cook’s reading, in order to compete on a global scale, GE produce must meet the challenges of the quickly evolving market for fruits and vegetables. Kuiseu argues that a decade ago, 80% of Senegal’s horticulture produce originated from small and medium producers.
