Skutki ekonomiczne sprzedaży ziemi w dużych obszarowo gospodarstwach polskiego FADN

The paper presents the attempt to use economic measures of assessment of divestments’ economic effects on large-area agricultural farms participating in the Polish FADN system, which made divestments regarding farmland in 2005. The average size of utilized agricultural area in the analyzed group was in the range 22.5 to 69.7 hectares. Over 50 percent of the farmland has been sold. As a result of those divestments a significant reduction in farm income from farming occurred. The analyses allowed to confirm the usefulness of measures of investment efficiency evaluation in estimating the economic consequences of land sale, modified for the purpose of divestment assessment. The data clearly indicated that the disposal of significant ratio of farmland is ineffective from an economic perspective.
