This paper first analyzes the current state of the various elements of sustainability in the village, and then on a representative sample of the households ie agricultural yards, according to previously defined sustainability parameters.The analysis of natural, human, spatial and economic resources gives us a clear picture of the existing situation, but also gives us an insight into the potential for sustainable development.
The subject of the research will be the agricultural yards in the village of Brodets. This village in terms of size and importance is the most isolated settlement in the area of Skopska Crna Gora. It is a typical mountain village at an altitude of 900 meters and is 15 kilometers away from the city of Skopje. There are great opportunities for livestock farming and forestry in the village, but unfavorable conditions for agriculture and traffic.
The aim of this research is to understand the way in which agricultural yards can transform and develop sustainably. The village of Brodets has a large untapped potential in pastures and forests, but the main problem of the village is the depopulation. If the village manages to overcome the problem of depopulation and keep young people in the village, with proper investment in the infrastructure and projects for the development of small businesses, the village has a good perspective and future in sustainable development through livestock farming and rural tourism.
