Modelling Dairy Farm Size Distribution in Poland Using an Instrumental Variable Generalized Cross Entropy Markov Approach
The aim of this paper is to analyse how dairy farm structure in Poland has changed during the post-socialist period. A relevant issue is what will happen to the subsistence and semi-subsistence farms in the restructuring process. The objectives are threefold. First the paper focuses on how farm structure has changed over time and what path it is likely to follow in the coming decade, by making several projections. Second, we investigate whether the changes in farm size can be explained by non-stationary effects. Finally, several statistical indicators are computed on farm mobility and on which farms are likely to survive.
