Abstract

RESUMEN - Este trabajo tiene un doble objetivo: primero, un análisis de la evolución económica de una muestra de 42 explotaciones lecheras del occidente asturiano, en el período 1993-1998, y segundo, un estudio de la situación final (1998), identificando los rasgos que caracterizan a las unidades con mejores resultados económicos. Para ello se estudia la evolución de la productividad de la mano de obra, la cuenta de resultados, la variación en el margen sobre concentrados, el umbral de rentabilidad, y el valor añadido y su distribución; al igual que, con la ayuda del análisis de la varianza y de la regresión logística, se caracteriza a las unidades con mejores resultados en 1998 en su gestión a corto y largo plazo. Se observa la importancia de una dimensión adecuada para rentabilizar factores indivisibles como la maquinaria, instalaciones y mano de obra, además de la necesidad de gestionar convenientemente todos los factores determinantes del margen de contribución por litro de leche. SUMMARY - This research has a double aim: first, an analysis of economic evolution in a sample of 42 dairy farms from western Asturias in the period of 1993-1998, and second, a study of the final situation (1998), identifying the characteristics of the units with better economic results. To be able to do this, we study the evolution of labour productivity, the variation in the margin over concentrated feeds, the break-even point, and the added value and its distribution. The analysis of variance and the logistic regression allow us to identify the traits from farms with the highest profits in 1998, in the short and long run. The research points out the importance of a proper size in order to make indivisible factors like machinery, installations and labour profitable and the need for adequately managing all factors that determine the contribution margin per litre of milk.
