Interconnection of the level of production intensity and results of activity of agricultural enterprises

The goal of the study is assessment of interconnection between the level of production intensity and results of activity of agrarian enterprises and identification of economic effects from increase of prices on agricultural products and resources for their production. Using the regression analysis the author identifies the degree and character of influence of expenditures per hectare of crop (one head of livestock) upon crop and livestock yield. Quantitatively, the degree of approximation of the correlation connection to functional linear dependence was assessed with the help of the Pearson correlation ratio and statistical assessment of its significance with the help of the Student criterion. On the basis of analysis of dynamics of parameters of regression equations for various years, the author conducts assessment of economic effect from growth of cost of resources used in the process of production and identifies the degree of influence of other the studied factors upon the resultant indicators. Supplementing the study with the factor analysis allowed the author identification of the aggregate economic effect from growth of prices of agricultural products and production resources for their production for 2005 - 2012. The result of the conducted study is the author's conclusion that economic conditions of functioning of domestic agrarian enterprises and their possibilities of introduction intensive technologies into production deteriorate every year, since the growth of prices on production resources had an outstripping rate during the studied period. Scientific novelty of the conducted study lies in a combination of methods of the regression, factor and dynamic analysis, which allowed the author's assessment of development of the said processes in a complex and as a system. Practical value of the revealed tendencies of dynamics of parameters of regression equations lies in the fact that they give a possibility to develop a number of proposals with respect to maintaining competitive positions of domestic agrarians in the domestic and world markets.
