Development Tendencies of Rural Holding in Yugoslavia
Josip Defilippis
Sažetak
In the introduction the author
briefly discusses the formation of
rural household in Yugoslavia, i. e.
the peasants’ struggle to establish,
consolidate and expand their farms.
Still today, in spite of
industrialization, developed market
and also his own increasing
orientation to non-agricultural
occupations, the peasant reluctantly
parts from his family holding.
The labour force on holdings is
constantly decreasing, so that today
almost half of the holdings
have no farm workers. However,
this does not mean that the land is
not cultivated, and consequently
the author believes that
deagrarization is much less than
shown by statistical data and that
a more appropriate term would be
deprofessionalization of
agriculture.
In the section on production
capacities the author analyses the
number and average size of the
holdings (parcelization tendency)
in the post-war period, changes
in cattle stock, and the degree
of mechanization.
Presenting the holding economy
through income and costs,
the author concludes that in the
observed period equalization of
profit in agricultural holding
and mixed farms occurred first,
in the same category of ownership,
and there has recently been slight
advantage in favour of agricultural
holdings due to the higher profit
from the land, together with
the greater inflow from activities
other than farming.
With regard to costs they have
been higher for household
requirements since the 1980s, and
from that time costs of farming
have been increased at a higher
rate.
