Abstract

Article concerns economic and energy efficiency of agriculture in European Union countries. The study period concerned 2016. For analysis and presentation of materials, descriptive, tabular and graphic methods and the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method – CCR (Charnes, Cooper and Rhodes) model focused on input-oriented minimisation were used. An assessment of the socio-economic development of the EU countries was made using the following measures: Human Development Index (HDI) and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita (USD per inhabitant). Modern agriculture depends on industrial energy sources and as the socio-economic development changes into more and more energy-intensive production technologies. After presenting the introduction and review of the literature, the economic and energy efficiency of agriculture in the EU countries in 2016 was examined, which was at a high level – the DEA reached 0.67. Then, the correlation between the socio-economic development of countries and their economic and energy efficiency was analysed. It was also found that along with socio-economic development in the EU countries, the economic and energy efficiency of agriculture is increasing.

农业的经济和能源效率

文章涉及欧盟国家农业的经济和能源效率。研究期间为2016年。对于材料的分析和呈现，使用了描述性，表格和图形方法以及数据包络分析(DEA)方法- CCR (Charnes, Cooper和Rhodes)模型，侧重于投入导向最小化。对欧盟国家的社会经济发展进行了评估，采用以下措施:人类发展指数(HDI)和人均国内生产总值(GDP)(人均居民美元)。现代农业依赖于工业能源，随着社会经济发展向越来越多的能源密集型生产技术转变。在对文献进行介绍和回顾后，对2016年欧盟国家农业的经济和能源效率进行了检查，处于较高水平- DEA达到0.67。然后，分析了各国社会经济发展与其经济和能源效率之间的相关性。研究还发现，随着欧盟国家社会经济的发展，农业的经济和能源效率正在提高。
