CHANGES IN PRODUCTIVITY AND PROFITABILITY OF WORK IN DAIRY FARMS FROM SELECTED EUROPEAN UNION COUNTRIES IN 2005-2015

Abstract

The main objective of the article was to present changes in productivity and profitability of work in dairy farms from selected EU countries diversified by economic size in 2005-2015. The subject of research is milk farms from seven EU countries with the largest increase in milk commodity production in 2005-2015. The analysis shows that: 1) Work productivity in EU dairy farms in 2015 was highly diversified and Polish farms were characterized by the lowest work productivity; 2) The level of work efficiency was not directly correlated with the profitability of the farmer’s own work. Polish dairy farms, especially from the group with an economic size of PLN 100,000 - 500,000 euro, were characterized by average similar profitability of their own work as farms from Germany, the Netherlands and France. An interesting example is dairy farms from Denmark, which were characterized by the highest work productivity and farm income per hour of own work was the smallest.<br/><br/>
