 Comparison of Management Intensification Tendencies of Groups of Farms of Different Production ProfilesJerzy Kopiński, Adam Berbeć and Andrzej Markowski Roczniki (Annals), 2019, vol. 2019, issue 2 Abstract: The study compares the trends of changes in the intensity of management (direct costs incurred) in relation to changes in the value of production in groups of farms with different production profiles. The basis for comparative analysis were the results of surveys conducted in 2004-2017, in several dozen large, market-oriented farms. The specific structure of gross commodity production was the main criterion for the division of farms into groups. The analysis showed that in all groups, production intensification, justified by economic results (without subsidies or direct payments) (type I), was effective and based on current prices. The most intensive production, in terms of incurred costs as well as land productivity and labor productivity, was carried out on pig farms – farm type least dependent on available land resources. Direct costs incurred in this group of farms were (in relation to 1 ha of AL) about three times higher than the average in other groups. Also, the highest increase in gross margin without additional payments was observed in this group.
