The aim of this paper is to examine the impact of sowing structure on family  farm competiveness using the model of family farm directed at the final  production of fattened beef cattle in the conditions of unchanged estate  size. Applying a partial budget analysis, it was examined whether the  decision on buying alfalfa hay or mercantile maize on the market and changing  the sowing structure was economically justified and under what conditions  using additional procedure of sensitive analysis. Applying this approach, it  was investigated to what extent that decision contributed to improving the  family farm profitability. The results of the conducted research show that  the decision on buying mercantile maize mainly contributes to improving  competitiveness of family farms directed at the final production of fattened  beef cattle compared with the decision on buying alfalfa hay. It is the  consequence of the fact that buying mercantile maize on the market will  enable sowing structure changes, that is, buying mercantile maize will make  the area free, which according to some conservative estimations, can be used  for the production of sufficient amounts of alfalfa and silage maize for  fattening of additional 19 head, whereas buying alfalfa hay will make the  area free, which can be used for production of sufficient amounts of  mercantile and silage maize for fattening of additional 6 head. In addition,  it is shown that more rational way of organizing family farms directed at the  final production of fattened beef cattle can additionally use available land  resources and in that way increase profitability and improve competitiveness

The change of sowing structure as a strategy for improving competitiveness of family farms directed at the final production of fattened beef cattle
