Abstract

The different sectors of the livestock industry play an important role in meeting the increasing demand for animal products in both Hungary and Croatia. The general objective of this study was to investigate and compare the efficiency of the livestock sectors in Croatia and Hungary using the Data Envelopment Analysis method. In this paper, the technical efficiency of the dairy, beef, broiler, sheep and goat, and pig sectors from 2014 to 2017 is investigated based on the Farm Accountancy Data Network database. This paper compared farms of different size classes based on the Standard Production Value for more detailed insights. Among the five main livestock sectors, Hungary performs better in terms of farm technical efficiency in the dairy and beef sectors, while Croatia has higher efficiency scores in the sheep sector. The performances in the pig and broiler sectors are almost the same in both countries. Moreover, in the Hungarian poultry, pig, sheep and goat sectors and the Croatian dairy, beef and pig sectors, the technical efficiency of small-sized farms is better than that of medium-sized farms.

利用DEA对FADN数据评价匈牙利和克罗地亚畜牧部门的技术效率

畜牧业的不同部门在满足匈牙利和克罗地亚对动物产品日益增长的需求方面发挥着重要作用。本研究的总体目标是使用数据包络分析方法调查和比较克罗地亚和匈牙利畜牧业的效率。本文基于农场会计数据网络数据库，对2014年至2017年奶牛、牛肉、肉鸡、绵羊山羊和生猪行业的技术效率进行了调查。本文根据标准产值对不同规模的农场进行了比较，以获得更详细的见解。在五个主要畜牧业部门中，匈牙利在乳制品和牛肉部门的农场技术效率方面表现较好，而克罗地亚在绵羊部门的效率得分较高。两国在生猪和肉鸡领域的表现几乎相同。此外，在匈牙利的家禽、猪、绵羊和山羊部门以及克罗地亚的乳制品、牛肉和猪部门，小型农场的技术效率优于中型农场。
