Development of agrarian employment in Slovakia after 2013

S. Buchta

The article discusses the prediction of the agrarian employment development in Slovakia in the new programming period, i.e. in the perspective of 2014-2020. The introduction covers the analysis of the current state in 2009 when 65.3 thousand of persons were employed within agriculture. The development of employment in the target years will be characterised by the increased number of self-employed persons, the increased social polarisation between the owners of enterprises or managers and agricultural employees. The class of the socially degraded agricultural pensioners characterised by income deprivation will be formed. Under the influence of the EU CAP reform, the decline in agrarian employment in the less-productive Northern districts of Slovakia and significant spatial changes in labour force distribution are being expected in dependence on the productive conditions of the agricultural production.

Keywords: changes in agrarian employment, entrepreneurial structure, social polarisation in agriculture, work seasonality, restructuring of agriculture
