Description
Summary:The main objectives of the paper are: 1) to present information on the number and structure ofapplications for subsidies for dairy cows and other cattle in 2015 in Poland; 2) economic evaluation ofthe system of subsidies for cows and other cattle in Poland; 3) to propose changes in the implementedsystem of subsidies to cattle. There were 27 461 farms, which only had 3 cows and applied for paymentsto these animals. This was up 16.9% of all farms applying for payments to cows. The proposed limits ofthe size of herds deducted subsidies are unclear (they are not supported by any economic arguments) anddo not stimulate the growth of milk production in Poland.
