Journal Title: Roczniki Naukowe Stowarzyszenia Ekonomistów Rolnictwa i Agrobiznesu - Year 2016, Vol 18, Issue 6

Abstract

Family farming is not only a business, but also a lifestyle where insistence on independency, decision-making and rural area is strong. Therefore, focusing on this issue has prior importance in context of rural development and agriculture. During the research the main question was how farmers from Karcag considered family farming situation. What do they think the greatest advantages and disadvantages of a family farm are? What does their effectiveness depend on? How much is it worth working in family farming? How attractive is this form of business to the young? Under what conditions may family farming provide secure future prospects? On this basis family farming had become an approved form of business. Type of activity and scale of production have significant impacts on the efficiency in farming. The current grant system may not be sufficient to the stabilization and development of family farms; therefore, family farming under the current agricultural policy is not too enticing to the young.<br/><br/>
