In the paper the past and future international competitiveness of Azerbaijanian horticulture is assessed by calculating domestic resource cost (DRC) ratios using data for 2015–17 as a base. Future international competitiveness is estimated for 2020 under two scenarios: baseline (current productivity), dynamic improvements in productivity. The analysis indicates that staying at the same level of productivity will have a negative impact on the international competitiveness of Azerbaijanian horticulture. To maintain competitiveness in the arable sector, Azerbaijan will need to achieve dynamic improvements in productivity, which is possible according to estimations of Agricultural Economics Research Center. The research is implemented based on plant growing products due to higher competitiveness rates compared to livestock sector’s products.
