The article analyses the revealed comparative advantages, disadvantages and competitiveness of Hungarian cereals and cereal preparations on EU 15 markets. Hungarian and international literature tends to treat notions of competitiveness and comparative advantages together, although the differences between them are clear. Having looked at some theoretical considerations, the article draws several interesting conclusions about the competitiveness and comparative advantages of Hungarian cereals by applying the original and improved methodology of revealed comparative advantages devised by Béla Balassa in 1965. On the one hand, it becomes clear that Hungary had revealed comparative advantages in most cases on EU 15 markets, but most were based on raw materials. Furthermore, the methodology makes it clear that Hungarian cereals basically competed unsuccessfully on quality and successfully on price in bilateral trading with the EU 15 - which was decisive in the period analysed. It also emerges that the comparative advantages of Hungarian cereals turned out to be more stable than their competitiveness.

EU accession has changed the agro-food trade of New Member States, including Hungary. The article focuses on analysing the changing structure and comparative advantage of Hungarian agro-food trade by product group and degree of processing. It aims to provide a clearer analysis of the effects of EU accession on Hungarian primary and processed agro-food trade by employing the latest data. Results confirm that revealed comparative advantages have weakened after accession and that the vast majority of products had a revealed comparative disadvantage after 2004. It is clear that accession has radically changed the survival time of agro-food trade, reasons for which are also identified.
