ECONOMIC ASSESSMENT OF CONCENTRATION AND MONOPOLIZATION OF THE MARKET OF SPICES AND ESSENTIAL OIL PLANTS IN UKRAINE

The article is devoted to the study of modern economic trends in the Ukrainian market of 
spicy and essential oil plants. The measurement of market concentration is carried out using 
concentration coefficients (indices), Lind, Herfindahl − Hirschman, relative concentration, 
entropy, variance of market shares of firms, Gini and Hall-Tideman. To study the degree of 
dominance of the largest participants in the Ukrainian market of essential oil and spice 
plants, the rigidity of its oligopoly core was determined. The results obtained allow us to 
conclude that when developing a strategy for the development of medicinal crop production 
in Ukraine, special attention should be paid to the need to create a competitive environment 
in this industry.
