Abstract

The level and structure of production costs has been the subject of constant concern in agricultural economics and policies, as well as in farm practice. Changes in the system of subsidies promoted by the CAP after 2003 were meant to use to a greater extent ways increasing profitability of farms, such as reducing costs. The paper focuses on calculating the costs per hectare for field crops, by cost components and by NUTS2 regions Romania. The research relies on an empirical analysis of data provided by the Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) for the year 2013. The results reveal significant regional variations of production costs per hectare in connection to variation of yields per hectares. These results are relevant for a more realistic estimation of needs for adapted subsidies to local / regional conditions.
