Abstract: The concept of residual savings is not very realistic : saving should rather be considered as the result of deliberate action. This observation, valid for the majority of households, is even more relevant for farmers and, generally, for entrepreneurs who allocate an important share of their income to savings. For this reason the financial behaviour of farmers should be examined in relation to savings rather than to consumption.
