A Contribution to the Discussion on Extended Reproduction of an Individual Holding
Vlado Cvjetićanin
Sažetak
limits that disable capitalistic accumulation and from the standpoint of the
longterm aims of the agrarian policy it represents only a transitory stage in the
process of the complete socialization of agriculture. As it is considered that this
transitory stage will last relatively long, competent opinions are expressed latelv
about the necessity of studying and investigating the possibilities of extended
reproduction of an individual peasant holding in Yugoslavia. However, investigations
of this kind are in an initial stage, and in the course of the next few years
first results should be expected (Agrarian Institute — Zagreb, Institut of Agricultural
Economics — Belgrade).
The author of this article uses the results of the permanent survey of individual
peasant holdings carried out for more that ten years on the sample of
2.600 holding by the Federal Bureau of Statistics, and trys to establish someregularities in earning and spending the income of individual holdings. The main
conclusions of the author are the next ones:
1) Money income of individual holdings as a whole and according to its
sources (farms and off farm income) has a tendency of permanent and rapid
growth, especially the money income from the holding.
2) It is characteristic for the money expenditure far larger investment in the
household than in the holding up to the 1962. After 1962. the relative growth of
expenditure for the holding, in relation to the basic index, surpassed the corresponding
index of money expenditure for the household (282 thousand to 245
thousand of old Din. in 1964.).
3) Out of the total money expenditure for the holding the author separately
analyses two items: money investments in the current agricultural production
and gross investiments in the holding and in connection with this he concludes:
— These expenditures taken apsolutely were in a continual growth, but
expenditures for the current agricultural production grew the most quickly
and a little slower gross investments in the holding,
— the relative share of these two items in the total expenditure of the holding
was decreasing in spite of the increase of the nominal total money expenditure
for the holding. It means that individual agriculturists were spending
their incomes more for needs of the household and standard and less
for the holding as a productive (economic) unit.
4) Agricultural household in its consumption policy, gradually turns away
from the land and attaches to agriculture less and less importance, which means
that the problem of the decreased interest for holding really becomes acute.
The author separately analyses money expenditure of holdings according to
the size of their landestates and for the conclusions derived from survey data
states possible reasons which more detailed investigation of this problem should confirm or negate.
