RESULTS OF FARMS SPECIALIZING IN PRODUCTION OF CATTLE FOR FATTENING IN SELECTED EUROPEAN UNION COUNTRIES
The study presents differences in economic results of farms specializing in production of cattle for fattening in six EU countries. France, Germany, Italy and Great Britain are the largest producers of beef in the EU-15, and Poland and Romania – in the EU-N13. The FADN EU average data for 2010-2015...

| Summary: | The study presents differences in economic results of farms specializing in production of cattle for fattening in six EU countries. France, Germany, Italy and Great Britain are the largest producers of beef in the EU-15, and Poland and Romania – in the EU-N13. The FADN EU average data for 2010-2015 were used for the analysis. The level of farm income was examined in order to assess their condition. The production efficiency assessment was carried out using the productivity indicator of current inputs, fixed capital and the ratio of costs to the production value. In France, Germany and Great Britain, the farm income without subsidies was negative. The loss was covered by the subsidies, their relation to farm income with subsidies amounted to 1.83, 1.67 and 1.55, respectively. The highest costs of producing EUR 100 of production were registered in French farms (EUR 117), and the lowest in Romanian farms (EUR 69). The productivity of current inputs indicates the advantage of Romanian (189.9%), Italian (184.5%) and Polish farms (148.9%). In other countries, this indicator was lower. |
