Abstract
The aim of the paper was to evaluate the economic efficiency of crop production in Azerbaijan. Twenty thousand data sets from the Farm Data Monitoring System (FDMS) for the period 2015-2019 are analyzed. Vegetable farms are smaller, but more intensive and efficient. Cereal production is less productive, and the income generated is low per farm and per ha. The relationships between yield and area per farm and irrigation as well as the relationship between profit per hectare and area per farm and irrigation are not confirmed by simple regression. Potential future applications of FDMS could include productivity, the impact of subsidies on business performance, farm competitiveness and resilience.
