Abstract: Agricultural cooperatives in Slovakia still represent the most important legal form of enterprises in agriculture. Chosen indicators of financial analysis and indicators of revenues as calculated to hectare of agricultural land show that the transformed agricultural cooperatives in Slovakia are able to keep in step with newly created business companies. The paper tries to answer the question why the agricultural cooperatives in Slovakia still maintain their dominant position in agricultural business while in other countries of Central Europe agricultural cooperatives play only an insignificant role.
