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.

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.

Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject Politics - Topic: European Union, grade: 1,7, University of Münster (Institut für Politikwissenschaft), course: Poland in the European Union - A Newcomer's Perspective, language: English, abstract: This paper deals with Poland’s membership in the European Union and its effects on the Polish agriculture. The integration of Poland’s agricultural economy into the EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) will become one of the key issues and has been one of the most difficult issues during the negotiations on the conditions of Poland’s membership in the EU.1 The aim of this paper is to point out the advantages and disadvantages, the costs and benefits as well as the opportunities and threats to Poland’s agricultural sector by comparing it with the situation of Spain in the middle of the 1980’s when Spain became a new member of the European Community. A comparison between these two states makes sense because both had quite similar starting points when they were joining the EC/EU. Therefore, the first chapter will give a historical overview of the agricultural sector in both states first of all. After that, production and export rates, proportions to each GDP and international scales as well as prospective and present changes after EC/EU-membership will be shortly presented and set into comparison. The second chapter compares the Spanish membership negotiations for its agricultural sector to the positions of Poland. Both states gained special exceptions, privileges and transitional periods for their agriculture which are not only useful for the farmers but for financial policy, too. These points will be described and compared. The third chapter presents the Polish agriculture’s future expectations. On the one hand threats and benefits will be listed up and proved to their validity. On the other hand, the Spanish expectations and fears of EC-membership in 1986 will be presented to prove the circumference of positive and negative expectations that came into existence. The fourth chapter gives a summary how far Poland and Spain are comparable in terms of their agricultural sector. Second, the experiences of Spain are used as a template to give answers for the future questions of the Polish agriculture.
