Abstract

In the paper the comparative analysis of national and EU support granted to Latvian farms grouped by type of farming and economic size is performed. The fluctuations of support specific weight in farm revenues and subsidies per 1 agricultural work unit and per 1 European size unit using individual index method are explored. The authors come to the conclusions about various dependence levels of Latvian farms differentiated by economic size and type of farming on the support received by agricultural sector. It is stressed that a chronological factor and an economic size of agricultural holding have a significant impact on the diversity of subsidy level. As previously conducted analysis focused on macroeconomic aspects of subsidization in Latvia, the results of the current research have an element of novelty.
