  • Regional Comparison of Farms on the Basis of the Fadn Database
    REGIONAL COMPARISON OF FARMS ON THE BASIS OF THE FADN DATABASE PESTI, CSABA - KESZTHELYI, KRISZTIÁN - Dr. TÓTH, TAMÁS SUMMARY The territorial structure of Hungarian farms was investigated. The results obtained proved once again that Hungarian farms cannot be dealt with in a uni­ form way, because the differences between regions they take place in require dif­ ferent approach. According to the results obtained so far the three Transdanubian regions lo­ cated in Transdanubia, the western part of Hungary, are more or less equal in respect of farm size, labour productivity, and profitability. Therefore it is recom­ mended to treat these regions in agricultural policy as a uniform system. The efficiency of farms in the regions of Northern Hungary and Northern Great Plain is lower as compared to other regions. Therefore it is recommended to support alternative measures aimed at the improvement of labour productivity in these regions. The region of Central Hungary also requires a different system of subsidies: here, horticulture producing higher value added should he supported to a greater extent in order to enable the farmers of the region to compete with imported goods and meet the changing demands of consumers. Although the present research is in its initial stage, it enabled several conse­ quences to be drawn, naturally without completeness. Therefore in the future it will be extended to several additional fields, such as the examination of farming co­ operatives, or a deeper investigation of livestock and crop farming. Research will be completed also by a number of statistical methods, e. g. deviation, correlation, including the simultaneous evaluation of non-agricultural economic indices, since agriculture is largely influenced by the general development of a region.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract This Report focuses on the regional competitiveness analysis of Hungary. Eight aspects are taken into consideration, which are Economics, Education and Learning, Innovation, Labor Market Effi- ciency, Infrastructure, Health, Farm, Environment Protection and Crimes. The final results show that Közép-Magyarország (Central Hungary) is the most competitive region which gets 68.46, while Észak Magyaroszág (Northern Hungary) which scored 24.23 is the least competitive region. Cultural and heritage, natural features, higher stage of urban/economic development, R & D sector and high level business services are the main advantages of Közép-Magyarország (Central Hun- gary). However, for the least competitiveness region Észak Magyaroszág (Northern Hungary), more attention should be paid to infrastructure construction, labor mobility, institution efficiency, promotion of innovation, business environment, improvement of education and health and envi- ronment protection. Keywords Regional Competitiveness, Hungary 1. Introduction In economic life and beyond, competition is one of the most fundamental sources of mobilization and creativity and it has immense impact on regional development and growth.

This is the situation in the 8 th district of Budapest, Józsefváros. There is a perceptible and presumably significant number of foreigners who are not documented officially and it seems to be impossible to make exact estimations about their ratio and impact.
