Abstract

The paper presents the average value of financial standing indicators (liquidity, debt, activity and profitability ratios) for group of agricultural holdings included into FADN. Data concern 2004 and have been presented for EU countries. Furthermore, the multi-dimensional statistical analysis of the financial results recorded by agricultural farms were conducted. As a result of grouping four homogeneous clusters of farms in the EU were identified. These groups are characterized by different value of the analyzed indicators. The analysis confirms thus the occurrence of considerable diversification of the financial performance in the EU countries. The research shows also that holdings in some “new” EU countries can be competitive for holdings in the EU-15
