Farm Viability Prediction in Areas Facing Natural Constraints in the Czech Republic

Original language description

Farm sustainability is one of the important issues of Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) payments to farmers in mountain areas or in other areas facing natural or other specific constraints (ANC). Maintaining income levels, developing farm economies in rural areas, and encouraging competitive agricultural practices are the challenges facing the programming period for public policies. ANCs in the Czech Republic are characterized by a lower level of income compared to areas outside ANCs. The paper deals with assessment of economic viability and predictors of this viability of farms operating in Czech ANCs. Logistic regression and decision trees were developed to find factors that are of significant relation to economic viability. Lower viability can be seen in ANCs that show higher dependence upon current subsidies, including ANC payments, a higher share of unpaid labour, lower production and higher costs per one unit of production (cost factor). Cost factor and size group (ha UAA) were the most important factors among all ANC groups. Cost factor is in negative relation to economic viability; the farms with lowest UAA of ha are of lower economic viability, compared to large farms. Farm specialization seems not be an important factor in case of non-ANC farms. Relatively successful are Grazing livestock farms in ANC, on the other hand this group is highly dependent upon subsidies.
