Abstract: This article investigates the determinants of agricultural households' product commercialisation in Kosovo in 2005, and in particular whether the integration of farms into input markets plays a role. Using data from a survey of 4187 agricultural households, a two-stage selection model is used, taking account of potential endogeneity of input prices. Results show that high labour price and low land availability are strong impediments to commercialisation of agriculture in the region.
