ł The Output of the Average Individual Farm in Poland and in the European Union Countries. An Attempt of Defining Similarity of Structures in 2005
Abstract
The aim of this research is to compare an average Polish farm with an average EU farm according to agricultural total output. A comparative analysis is based on FADN data for the year 2005. Basic method of this research was a descriptive and comparative analysis. Descriptive statistics methods were also used - among them, so-called measure of structure's similarity. The comparison of results of Polish average farm with the results obtained by EU average farm revealed that the value of the majority of chosen economic variables observed in Polish average farm was c.a. three times lower than the EU average. In each of three rankings - prepared according to the criteria of total output, crops produc-tion, livestock production Polish average farm came low down. The results obtained with the use of the measure of structure's similarity, demonstrate that the structure of total out-put in Polish average farm in the 2005 year is - to some extent - similar to Belgian, Lat-vian and Finnish ones. On the other hand, structure of crops production in Polish farm was similar to a considerable degree to Finnish and British structures, while the livestock production of Polish average farm was similar to a large extent to the structure observed in Hungarian farms.
