Resumo(s)
Uneven regional development is widely recognised. This paper explores the effectiveness
of a regional development strategy based on the agri-food sector expansion
in a laggard agriculture dependent region. We use a bi-regional rectangular Input–
Output model, explicitly taking into account the methodological and policy implications
of resource-constrained products. Results confirm that local transformation of
agricultural products has a positive but limited effect, due to land restrictions and
impact leaks to the more complex and developed region. The regional development
strategy would be more effective if it focuses instead on non-tradable products or not
so dependent on natural resources.
