In the paper, there is described using of the optimization models AGRO-3 SR for modeling food production chains in the Slovak Republic (the modified version of the Czech model AGRO-3) and ALOKA for optimal allocation of the domestic agricultural production computed by AGRO-3 SR into 4 different regions of the SR for simulation of consequences of various types of agrarian policies on the effectiveness of the Slovak agriculture to the medium-term horizon 2005. There are formulated and evaluated 4 scenarios for the model AGRO-3 SR and two alternatives A and B for the model ALOKA relating to all scenarios. Results of simulations have shown that the best result was reached in the scenario 4 by the price liberalization in the whole food chains.
