Competitiveness of farming Sample Clauses

Competitiveness of farming food processing and forestry enterprises Czech agriculture lags behind the EU average in a number of indicators of competitiveness. Compared internationally, the efficiency of utilisation of inputs into the Czech agriculture is as follows: The production per hectare of land is on average 58% of the EU value, intermediate consumption is relatively high at 73% of the production in the Czech Republic, 56 xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/statistics/statisticssearch/report/?country=CZECH&product=balances&year=2011 or xxxx://xxx.xxxx.xx/csu/0000xxxxxxxxxx.xxx/kapitola/8113-12-n_2012-03 which suggests that the Czech agriculture remains very cost-intensive. Similarly, the labour productivity measured by the net added value per worker amounts to 68% (compared to EU), while more than half of the income from factors represents income support, which is almost twice the European average. High negative balance of agricultural foreign trade is influenced by the fact that commodities with a lower degree of processing are exported (i.e. with lower added value), while processed products with high added value are imported. Also the competitiveness of forestry management in the Czech Republic and food industry expressed in productivity of labour is, compared to other EU states, low. The average productivity of work in forestry in 2008-2010 totals circa 24 thousand EUR /AWU which is half the value of, for example, Austria. With regard to food industry, productivity of work reaches only 46% of the average value reached in the EU. From a structural point of view, the Czech agriculture is different from other EU countries, mainly due to the dual structure of production (87% of family-based businesses utilises 29% of the land, while the remaining 13% of companies with predominantly rental workforce operates at 70% of the land). The share of rented land in agriculture is high (in 2011 it was 76%). Compared to European farmers, there are lower overall capital resources. Considering the structure of agricultural businesses, it is desirable to support not only SME but also big businesses who deal with the same problems and that are of key importance for the competitiveness of the field. In the food sector, it is the big companies that have the fundamental potential to introduce innovations. The support of large food companies will exclusively target projects related to the development and introduction of innovations. The general support of processing and launching on the market will only be directe...
