Download or read book Agrarian Structure in Poland the Myth of Large farm Superiority written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1996 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Poland, present policies are aimed at promoting large, mechanized farms over smaller family farms. These policies are based on the perception that large farms offer real economies of scale. But international evidence indicates that such large, mechanized farms are generally less efficient and use less labor than small family farms. The authors analyzed the relationship between farm size and efficiency in Polish agriculture. They used two different methods to do so. First they determined differences in total factor productivity between small and large farms. They then used Data Envelope Analysis to estimate scale efficiencies. The results show that, for the sample of farms analyzed: 1) large farms are not more efficient than smaller farms; and 2) smaller farms are more labor-intensive than larger farms. These results have important policy implications for farm restructuring in Poland and other transition economies facing similar issues and conditions.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the paper is to analyse the agrarian structure in Poland in the years 1921-2002 based on the example of the following selected provinces from the former three annexed territories: the wielkopolskie province from the Prussian partition, the małopolskie province from the Austrian partition, and the świętokrzyskie province from the Russian partition. The subject of the evaluation of the changes in the agrarian structure is based on the comparisons made for the years 1921 and 2002. The Gini coefficient and the arable coefficient were applied in the analysis of the agrarian structure. As shown in the paper, despite the flow of many years, the transformations determining it, the changes in the agrarian structure within the three annexed areas were much alike. That means that in the provinces examined the agrarian structure is strongly conditioned by history. The differences in the agrarian structure between the three annexed territories have been maintained to date, despite the common agricultural and economic policies conducted within the area of Poland for almost 100 years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poland embarked on the road toward a market economy with its economic reform program of January 1990, aimed at stabilizing the macroeconomy. The productive sectors, including agriculture and related industries, will be able to build on the solid foundations of this program. But the productive sectors are difficult and time consuming to reform, and it is not always easy to identify the actions that will bring about the desired changes and differentiate them from those that slow down the reform process. Both categories often look dangerously alike. A strategic plan is needed to help orient decision-makers in the maze of complex relations and detailed actions that are constantly required. The agricultural sector, because of its social and economic importance, has the potential to be either a brake or an engine for the reform program. The present farm crisis is only a reminder of this fact. This report is an attempt to define such a strategy for agriculture.
