Today, agriculture is expected to meet the growing demands for the production of a sufficient amount of food. So, it is necessary to increase productivity in agriculture, while taking into account the longterm agricultural sustainability. The implementation of digitalization in agriculture leads to increased productivity, enables the growth of agricultural producers’ profits and maintenance of food security. The aim of the paper is to analyze the application of digitalization in agriculture on farms in AP Vojvodina. In the paper 46 farms from the territory of AP Vojvodina were surveyed as part of the research. The results of the research showed that digital technology is still not used enough on farms in AP Vojvodina, and the main limiting factors are financial resources, education and lack of different types of training.","PeriodicalId":201477,"journal":{"name":"Ekonomika poljoprivrede","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130819242","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}

The paper gives a financial analysis of these two sectors compared against the average for the Montenegrin economy. The analysis is based on the submitted final accounts for the period 2005 - 2019. The financial analysis in the paper showed that the growth of assets in agriculture was faster than the national average in the observed period, while in the case of industry it was slower. It also showed that agriculture has satisfactory solvency, while that in industry is a matter of concern, and although the debt level of the former is lower than that of the latter, the trend of debt growth is concerning. As for liquidity, it remains unsatisfactory in both sectors, but it is somewhat more favourable in industry.","PeriodicalId":201477,"journal":{"name":"Ekonomika poljoprivrede","volume":"89 12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130101517","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}

In that sense, we methodologically included analysis and synthesis, compilations, inductions and deductions of “military budgets”, GDP and some other indicators in several currently most significant countries and in the Republic of Serbia, in the context of compromised global security.

This study, therefore estimated the impact of climatic variations on tomato productivity across agro ecological zones of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Panel data for 28 years (1991-2018) across the six districts of the agro ecological was used due to availability of data on tomato productivity and climatic variables. Yield of tomato, area, maximum temperature and rainfall were included in the final estimated model. The results indicate that the average maximum temperature and average maximum temperature square have a significant impact on tomato yield. Average maximum temperature has positive coefficient while the average maximum temperature square has a negative coefficient. This demonstrates that, at first, the tomato yield increases as the temperature rises. It reaches the maximum at the critical temperature (34.95ºC) but shows a decline once the temperature rises from the critical value.","PeriodicalId":201477,"journal":{"name":"Ekonomika poljoprivrede","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133674467","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}

The authors conclude that subsidies for organic agriculture, although they are paid continuously and are a significant incentive, have a small percentage share in the agricultural budget in both countries. In Serbia, 1% and 3% of registered farms in Montenegro practice organic agriculture.","PeriodicalId":201477,"journal":{"name":"Ekonomika poljoprivrede","volume":"95 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127078100","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}

As social media networks, play an increasing role in e-business globally, the intention is to emphasize the importance of their use in order to promote various agricultural and food products. The survey included a final sample of 92 respondents. The basic hypothesis in this paper is that the Internet as an e-business technology has great potential for improving the position of farmers and producers, but also that it is not used in its full potential.
