Agriculture was supposed to play an important role in realisation ofthe two basic principles defined by the Constitution – Montenegro as a social-market economyand Montenegro as ecologic state.Despite the fact that there were significant social-political and system changes whichagricultural development benefited from, most of the proposals regarding agriculture in theprevious Spatial plan were not realised. It is useful to note, that the environment and theconditions in which the development took place, of agriculture as well as of the completeeconomy, were lot less favourable than it was expected. All these things contributed to keepingthe main characteristics of agriculture as a traditional low productivity sector.The main production subjects are a great number of private households. Within 60,043households (2003) there is approximately 96.3% of cultivable land and just as much of stock54
