Foreword
Ladies and gentlemen, dear readers,
it is with pleasure that I can address you on the occasion of the International
Conference on European Integration (ICEI) taking place in Ostrava and organised
in the context of this year’s 10th anniversary of the Czech Republic’s membership
in the European Union. It was very encouraging to see that this anniversary
has revived national discussion not only about the past 10 years, but also about
the scope to which extent we can draw on the potential offered by the EU membership
to the Czech Republic. At the same time, we find ourselves only a short period ahead
of the European elections which are scheduled here in the Czech Republic
for 23 and 24 May. I therefore also trust that this moment will contribute to active
participation by voters.
What the EU membership has brought to the Czech Republic? Being a Czech national,
I can say that for me personally the main benefit lies in the November 1989 dream
of „The return to Europe“ becoming a reality. This was of course meant symbolically,
as the Czech place has always been in the centre of Europe – by its geographical
position, history or culture. In this sense, accession to the EU has had in the first
place a civilizational dimension: it has reflected Czech re-attachment
to the community of values based on freedom, democracy, respect to human rights and
principles of the rule of law.
The perspectives of membership have also had an enormous motivating potential
for the whole country. Here, I would add that the same applies to the full integration
into NATO in 1999. The EU accession was not an objective in itself, but it was also
a beginning of a new journey or story, which we live to date and which has brought
both successes and partial failures. In spite of that only few doubt today that our
country, the Czech Republic, has largely benefited from the EU membership.
We are now marking 10 years in the Union. I therefore trust that the conference will
contribute to further analysis of the achievements as well as of the unused potential
EU offers. I trust it will also discuss challenges ahead of us and the future of our
Union. The dialogue on EU’S future continues and you can be part of it.
Wishing you an inspirational experience

Abstract
Slovakia is perceived as a leader among the European countries due to its size of farms.
Despite of a high concentration of farms - up to 95.1% of the utilized agricultural land
is farmed by large farms - the Slovak agriculture is considerably less productive.
The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) develops not only the traditional role of agriculture,
a food production, but shapes the face of country, affects the quality of environment and also
helps to increase the potential of tourism development through the cooperation of direct
payments system, capping and greening. CAP greatly affects the agriculture in the EU mainly
through the subsidies as they are an indispensable source of funding of agricultural firms.
The aim of this paper is to analyze the impact of CAP on the economy of farms based
on an analysis of a unique set of agricultural entities operating in Slovak Republic
Keywords: Agriculture, Common Agricultural Policy, Development, Influence, Subsidies
JEL Classification: M40, M69, Q29, Q49
1. Introduction
Slovakia's accession to the European Union had an impact on the entire economy,
especially on agriculture, representing the integration basis in Europe.
The independent Slovak agricultural policy was abolished after entering the EU and it
was needed to adopt the unified agricultural policy, which represents a set of
economic, institutional, legislative, and policy instruments to ensure a homogenous
market.
Profitability in the Slovak agriculture after 2004 period is deep below the average EU27 countries, as well as the support to agriculture calculated in Euros per hectare of
agricultural land. Slovakia is at low level with the amount of total agricultural output
per hectare of agricultural land. Not only it lags behind the average EU-27 (against
which it achieves only half of the value), but also keeps behind the Czech Republic,
Hungary and Poland, i.e. states which Slovakia joined the EU with.
The number of farms in the EU-27 gradually decreased and their average acreage
increased. A similar trend was also in Slovakia. Cooperatives and capital companies
dominated in the Slovak agriculture. They cultivate 90% of agricultural land, while
in the EU-15 is dominated by individuals (family farms).
610
By Slovakia's accession to the EU, the soil has become an essential means
for obtaining government funds from the Common Agricultural Policy. In Slovakia,
there is still a substantial portion of agricultural land farmed by farms with large
acreage farmed land.
The analysis of the group of agricultural farms (Szabo, 2006), operating in the best
climate and agricultural conditions, showed the great differentiation in performance
and utilization of factors of production, especially amplifying factors. In 2003 almost
the half of the farms was in loss, and many are threatened to destruction after entry to
European Union. Agrarian sector needed new strategic solution as modernization of
production capacities, conformity of production structure and demands, integration to
multinational production sale verticals, development of ecological production and
alternative activities.
The adoption of the CAP had a positive impact on the growth of the off-market and
total income but at the same time, its production efficiency decreased and the
production structure has changed. Less efficient sectors of the crop and livestock
production declined. Regarding the aspect of financing of the agricultural sector, the
European resources, mainly the direct payments, were determined. The total subsidies
into agriculture increased in comparison with the pre-accession period. The volume of
direct payments including the complementary national direct payments reached the
maximum level in 2007, 2008 and 2009. (Chrastinova, Burianova, 2012)
When analysing the impact of risk of agricultural farms on their profitability, studies
show that the lower level of risk, the lower level of profitability of farms may occur
(Piterková et al. 2013). The effort of farms is to increase the efficiency of business,
which is inextricably connected with achieving the lowest possible cost per unit of
output. The low costs represent an important competitive advantage for a farm.
(Váryová et al.2012) As confirmed by the results of research in quality management
by authors Savov et al. (2013) the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award criteria
significantly contribute to improve the productivity and efficiency of all business
processes.
The behaviour of agricultural farms in agriculture is significantly influenced by the
current support scheme and the level of support within the EU CAP but also by market
conditions. The impacts of the particular scenarios on the changes of production
indicate that Slovak agriculture will approach just slowly the 2008 production level.
This will be decisively influenced by the price development. Despite of this, it is
evident that the most favourable result can be achieved under the Flat Rate Scenario
while the absolute abolition of direct payments (Liberal Scenario) will bring very
unfavourable economic consequences with impacts on agricultural production in
Slovakia. (Božik, 2011)
In connection with the proposed reform of the current Common Agricultural Policy
for period 2014-2020, the direct support should be split more equally between the
Member States, namely by reducing the link to historical data and by taking into
account the overall context of the EU budget. All Member States with direct subsidies
below 90% of the EU average should reduce the difference between their current level
and this level by one third. This convergence should finance proportionally all
611
Member States with direct payments above the EU average. The discussion about the
future multiannual financial framework for the period commencing in 2021, should be
focused on the objectives of complete convergence through the equal distribution of
subsidies across the EU.
2. Data and Methodology
Our analysis was based on the database of Ministry of Agriculture and Rural
development for agricultural farms over the period 2000-2012. The database contained
individual data including balance sheets and income statements for each farm. For our
analysis, data were selected according to the farm legal form to subset of the
agricultural production cooperatives and the subset of the capital companies - Joint
Stock Company (JSC) and Limited Liability Companies (Ltd.). These are the two
main legal forms in Slovak agriculture with respect to the utilised agricultural area
(UAA). In 2012 cooperatives cultivated 37.87% of UAA and companies 42.40% of
UAA. To measure the effects of Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) we divided the
observed period into three parts:
1. Period before CAP implementation – years 2000-2003 in our analysis
2. Period of CAP1999-2006 implementation – years 2004-2006 in our analysis
3. Period of CAP2007-2013 implementation – years 2006-2012 in our analysis
Table 1 shows the number of cooperatives and companies included in the database.

The farm structure in Slovak agriculture is similar to the situation in Czech Republic.
Unlike in old EU Member states the majority of UAA is cultivated by large farms with
more than 1000 hectares per farm. The legal form and the double entry accounting
enable analyze the balance sheet structure (see table 2). Agricultural farms in 2012
compared to year 2000 had more assets per hectare (+ 917.20 €). This shows the
increasing asset intensity in agriculture.

When comparing legal forms the increase in assets in cooperatives was from 1563.60
€/ha in year 2000 to 2047.30 €/ha in 2012 (+31%). Higher increase in assets was in
case of companies. The value of assets per hectare increased sharply from 1205.40
€/ha in 2000 to 2654.20 €/ha in 2012 (+120%). On the Equity and Liability side of the
Balance sheet the ratio between equity and liabilities is changing in favour of
liabilities. Generally agricultural Cooperatives have higher proportion of equity
compared to agricultural Companies.
To analyze the impact of European integration on agriculture we focused on 4 ratios:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Subsidies per hectare
Profit per hectare
Profit without subsidies per hectare
Subsidies to Sales ratio
To describe the development of presented ratios in the whole dataset we used
descriptive statistics median, upper quartile and lower quartile. The data were
visualised by box and whisker plots and the significance of differences was measured
by ANOVA, T-test and Tukey Post Hoc test. Results are in the table 3.

3. Results and Discussion
Agriculture in all European countries is supported by public funds in form of
subsidies. The total amount of subsidies received by agricultural farms in Slovakia
increased after 2004 after CAP introduction in 2004 (table 4, increase in median).
The increase in subsidies was followed also by higher profit per hectare in first years
of CAP introduction (table 4, median of profit/ha in years 2004-2008).

The profitability in agriculture depends on weather and climate conditions and during
the observed period 3 years were extremely negative. Adverse weather conditions in
2000, 2003 and 2009 resulted in very low profitability in the majority of agricultural
farms (table 4, profit/ha in 2000, 2003, 2009, lover and upper quartile, median).
Higher subsidies per hectare were not fully transformed into higher profit per hectare
(table 4, higher increase in median subsidies/ha compared to increase in median
profit/ha).
Increase in subsidies per hectare was confirmed also by comparing the 3 time periods
and legal forms (figure 1). Agricultural cooperatives and companies received in first
period (2000-2003) less on subsidies than after the integration into EU in 2004. In the
second period (2004-2006) the subsidies in new member state were much lower
compared to old member states and the situation improved in the third period (20072012). The majority of subsidies were linked to Single Area Payment Scheme (SAPS).
It allows a single annual payment to be made to farmers on the basis of the area of the
farm. Also there are significant differences between the legal forms measured by ratio
subsidies per hectare. The situation is the same in case of profit per hectare.

Figure 1: Subsidies and Profit per hectare in the Legal Forms (€/ha)
In each period companies generated higher profit per hectare compared to
cooperatives. Main reason is the history of agriculture in Slovakia before 1989.
Companies in Slovak agriculture are generally new entities driven by the profit
maximization in the market economy. Majority of the cooperatives existed also before
1989 and the higher numbers of owners increase the moral hazard and agency cost
which results in lower profitability.
In the next section we focused on the profitability of farms without the impact of
subsidies and the ratio between Subsidies and Sales (table 5). Subsidies represent
stable income without risk for each farm.

Therefore the majority of farms in Slovak agriculture relay on subsidies and are less
motivated to produce agricultural production for the market. This fact can be observed
by both indicators in table 5. Farms generate loss from the market production and the
loss is increasing in years after CAP implementation (table 5, profit without subsidies
in 2004-2009). During the same period the proportion of subsidies on agricultural
production in form of sales increases (table 5, subsidies/sales in 2004-2009). An
opposite trend can be observed in 2010-2012.
The ability to generate profit without subsidies is different in the legal forms (figure
2). Both legal forms generate loss without subsidies. Loss without subsidies in case of
companies is lower than the loss without subsidies in case of cooperatives. Parallel
companies generate higher sales (figure 2, subsidies to sales by legal form).

Ratio in the Legal Forms
4. Conclusion
The process of integration into EU brought changes to Slovak agriculture. It was
followed by increase of public funds in form of CAP subsidies. Their main aim is to
support farm income as well as rural development. The Slovak agricultural farms in
our sample displayed low profitability measured by profit per hectare. On the other
hand after integration into EU in 2004 the majority of farms generate profit.
Significant differences in profit per hectare were observed between agricultural
cooperatives and companies, the prevailing legal forms in the Slovak agriculture.
Companies are more profitable compared to cooperatives.
Increase in subsidies was followed by lower ability to generate profit without
subsidies. Agriculture in Slovak Republic is not able to cover cost by revenues without
public support. This applies to both legal forms. Companies are more successful as the
loss generated without subsidies is lower. Better performance of companies is the
result of more factors. We only measured the difference in generated sales which are
in favour of companies.
There are several limitations of the study approach, e.g. reliability of the financial
statements used for tax purposes. Farms as any other entity are motivated to decrease
the profit because of tax optimisation. But the number of farms included in our
analysis should minimize this limitation.
