The farms sustainable development is determined to a big degree by their investment activity. In the first investment period (2007-2013), as well as in the present period of CAP special attention has been payed to measures encouraging structural investments. One of these measures targets is the increase of farmers’ economic potential. Generally, the investment support covers a part of total costs necessary for realizing of different by their duration programs (single, short-term, medium-term and long-term), related to the investment activity in a farm (Dwyer, 2005). Investment subsidies are often related to the criteria, subordinated to environment protection and farms economic sustainability. This paper aim is to present the results of ех-post and ех-ante analysis of investment support measures impact of farms economic state, in relation their investment activity.

Agricultural economics is a branch of applied economics born at the turn of the 20th century. Its primary role was to use economic and its own newly developed methods to contribute towards an improved use of resources in agricultural production. It is recognized as one of the fundamental disciplines in university-level agricultural education, with its own subjects, modules and programmes. University-level education in agricultural economics (UEAE) traditionally rests on four pillars: agricultural economics, farm management, food marketing and agricultural policy, complemented by numerous other fields that extend beyond the narrow framework of economics and into other social sciences.

Discussions of the future European rural development policy started in September 2016. Participants at the Cork 2.0 European Conference on Rural Development have declared that an innovative, integrated and inclusive rural and agricultural policy in the European Union (EU) should be guided on ten policy orientations. Rural Europe is home to more than half of the EU population and covers more than three quarters of the territory. Rural areas are also important in the preservation of Europe’s natural and cultural landscapes and heritage. EU support for investment in rural areas should focus on generating added value for society. Land management has a key role in the interface between citizens and the environment. Policies must incentivise the delivery of environmental public goods, including the preservation of Europe's natural and cultural heritage. Increased pressure on natural resources must be met by coordinated cross-sectorial policy responses. These should ensure the sustainable management of natural resources such as water, soil, and biodiversity, being the very means of agricultural and forestry production. There is a need to develop and mainstream innovative, science-based solutions that allow for producing more with less while ensuring that natural resources are at the disposal of future generations. Effective formats of knowledge exchange and advice should be developed and support provided for the adoption of well-designed land management schemes. For achieving the above-mentioned objectives, in the EU regulatory framework is envisaged a possibility for direct and indirect support for land consolidation, as a tool for sustainable rural development.

The paper analyzes cost effectiveness of invested funds for apple orchard establishment on the family farm located in Rasina District in Central Serbia. It is assumed that the apple orchard establishment on the family farm can contribute to reducing unemployment in rural areas and increasing income of individual farms. As a primary source of information accounting calculations were used, technological table of apple orchard establishment, internal records and the pilot version of the business plan of apple producers at the family farm. For more accurate view and better monitoring of data domestic and foreign literature, internet web sites, available statistical data on the production of apples and publications related to apples production has been used. Methods used for the paper preparation were: calculation of plantation establishment, cash inflows and outflows for the period planned for orchard exploitation, and indicators of economic efficiency. Total cost of planting of apple orchard on the family farm amounts to € 16,080 for one hectare. All economic indicators show positive results. The production is efficient, since the ratio is greater than zero. Planned production is profitable, because profits participate with 71% in total production value. Calculating productivity, it was found that production of one tonne of apples required 822 hours of workers’ labour. Establishing apple orchard is certainly high-budget investment, but it can be concluded that the economic effects of raising apple orchards on the farm was economically justified and cost-effective, based on the analyzed result.

Energetics has been and remained the key factor of economic changes and economic development to date. If the energy sector is stable, modern, and organized in a quality manner, it also implies welfare for the economy as a whole. Changes in the significance and use of energy in the economy require the professional management of energy development. Irrespective of modern technology and the key discoveries in energy transformation and concentration, it has not declined in significance. On the contrary, energy is the basis of the human activity. On the other hand, the present structure of the primary sources of energy at the global level cannot follow the trend of increasing demand for energy. The limited reserves of the non-renewable sources of energy, especially of crude oil, require our turning towards the renewable sources of energy. The energy crisis of today is not only an expression of the bad condition of natural sources, but a consequence of the global policy for the exploitation of the existing sources of energy. The current condition of energy resources is a consequence of a monopolistic policy for big business and the New World Order founded on it. According to the assessments of the International Energy Agency (IEA), a further increase in primary energy consumption is expected in the period to come. Because of that, it is necessary to strategically plan the development of the energy sector both from the general developmental, technological-economic, and social-ecological points of view. The fact that Serbia has a relatively high energy consumption growth rate, that it is poorer in primary energy reserves in comparison with the world average, refers us yet more to the rational use of the existing reserves of energy and also to the production of energy from renewable sources: solar, the energy of the wind, geothermal, biomass, the energy of the tide and the waves of seas and oceans, and so on. The paper addresses the issues in the field of the sustainable development of energetics, safety and energy efficiency, as well as a future development of energetics in Serbia based on the renewable sources of energy. The economic effects of the production of energy from renewable sources have also been analyzed.

Modern business trends in agriculture include increasing the productivity and efficiency of agricultural production in order to achieve a competitive position in the market. The growth of the population imposes an increasing need for agricultural food products, accessibility of products and the necessity of preserving the environment. In order to ensure the long-term sustainability of the agricultural sector in a dynamic environment, it is necessary to make timely business decisions. The use of information technologies in agricultural farms, primarily computers and the Internet, enables agricultural producers access to a large amount of information. The aim of this paper is to examine the current level of IT usage in the markets of the countries of South East Europe, with an emphasis on the agricultural sector, as well as to analyze future trends in the development of modern technologies. The paper uses the data of the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia and the EUROSTAT database. The survey covers the period 2009-2018, which analyzes the frequency of using computers, the Internet and e-commerce.

Bottled water sector in B&H becomes more significant economically with media pressure and expectations. This paper aims to determine factors important for the consumers while choosing bottled water products and in that way try to, by comparing the results to the sectors abilities, determine sector’s ability to meet the consumer’s needs. Small research among (97) respondents was carried out, and the results indicate that the sector is unable to meet the needs of the customers, since the trade balance is negative and domestic market share low. Customer profile suggests almost only young consumers, which indicates that for the stronger results further research is needed.

The aim of this study is to examine the changes in dehydrogenase enzyme activity in different pedological development soils formed on the same parent material, but with different slopes, land cover and land use under semihumid climatic conditions. It was carried out on the soil formed on the basaltic parent material in different topographical positions within the Dagkoy area of Engiz district, which is located at the south of the Samsun-Bafra Highway. In this study, dehydrogenase enzyme activity was assessed in order to reveal the biological properties of the soil of the study area and it was investigated the dehydrogenase enzyme activity in terms of soil biological property. For this aim, six soil profiles formed on weathered basaltic parent material and located on toposequence of north-south transect were described according to genetic horizon and classified as Lithic Ustorthent, Vertic Haplustept, Typic Haplustept and Typic Haplustert. It was determined that the dehydrogenase changed between 0.073-1.170 μg TPF in soils taken from each profile. In addition, when the statistical relationship between dehydrogenase enzyme activity and different profiles, land use, and elevation along the north-south transect was investigated different profiles and different elevation were found to be important at % 1 level of effect on dehydrogenase enzyme activity in the soil. Also the effect of different land use patterns were found to be important at % 5 level on the activity of dehydrogenase enzyme in the soil.

Most plant species that are cultivated in climatic conditions prevailing in the Republic of Croatia as annual or biennial flowering plants originate from warm and temperate climate zones of the planet. The plant groups in question are primarily used in privately-owned gardens and on various landscapes. They can be planted in raised flower beds, as well as used for landscape edging, rock gardens, decorative pots and they are also used as cut flowers. They are cost effective and provide the premises with a decorative value added. The objective of the survey research was to verify the findings about cultivation and use of annual and biennial flowering plants that are frequently used in gardens and landscaping in Šibenik and Knin. The survey research was conducted in May 2016 on a sample comprising of 30 respondents (for annual species) and 29 different respondents (for biennial species) from the region of the cities Šibenik and Knin and their outskirts. The respondents assessed the decorative features of six selected species per individual flower group and the method of their maintenance with an average grade (4). The participants in the survey showed a higher level of knowledge on annual flower species (67.7%-100%) compared with the knowledge on biennial flower species (57.9%-75.9%). The persons questioned correctly assessed the use of various species according to their function in the premises. Most respondents used decorative pumpkins (Cucurbita pepo) amongst annual flower plants for decoration of premises, whilst amongst biennial plants they primarily opted for daisies (Bellis perennis). The data provided can be used for the promotion of cultivation and use of flowering plants in practice.

The participants in the survey showed a higher level of knowledge on annual flower species (67.7%-100%) compared with the knowledge on biennial flower species (57.9%-75.9%). The persons questioned correctly assessed the use of various species according to their function in the premises. Most respondents used decorative pumpkins (Cucurbita pepo) amongst annual flower plants for decoration of premises, whilst amongst biennial plants they primarily opted for daisies (Bellis perennis). The data provided can be used for the promotion of cultivation and use of flowering plants in practice.","PeriodicalId":414064,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agricultural, Food and Environmental Sciences","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115969949","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
