“…Bernués et al 2011), a low-input cattle breeding in the LFAs is extremely profitable in general, showing a overcompensation for public goods provided (Doucha 2008). Considering the presented results and the objective allocation of future supports for cattle (especially of those under Art.…”

Th e EU Common Agricultural Policy enables to provide coupled payments for cattle breeding. Th e article compares the profi tability in dairy cows and suckler cows breeding under the Czech agricultural policy and market conditions. It is approved that particularly very large farms with an extensive suckler cows breeding on permanent grassland are oversupported and realize rents. Based on the analytical results, suggestions to distribute the supports more eff ectively and fairly, particularly those under the Council Regulation (EC) No. 73/2009, Article 68, are presented.

“…The most important for the LAgs (but also the most difficult to measure) is social capital. This fact is often referred to when addressing the rural development policy and the common Agricultural Policy in the sense of their evaluation (Doucha, Foltýn 2008). however, social capital is crucial for LEADEr, since through the established networks, there are supported also other forms of intangible capital such as the intellectual (Tichá 2008), human (Soukup 2007) or cultural capital (Lošťák 2006;Lošťák 2007).…”

555This text develops the ideas and thoughts, which were already published in the paper named "Agriculture and the farming related activities: their actors and position in the LEADEr approach" (Lošťák, hudečková 2008).The reasons of addressing the LEADEr approach were related, as the mentioned paper also documents, to several circumstances. First, LEADEr was since its beginning in 1991 (starting as the communality Abstract: The paper addresses the LEADEr approach in the czech republic. Using documentary research and content analysis of the appropriate documents and the Local Action groups information sheets, the paper firstly outlines the evolution of the LEADEr approach in the czech republic (the paper points out the difference in understanding LEADEr in the EU /focusing on capacity building and the use of intangible forms of capital/ and in the czech republic EU /focusing on investments/). The paper also analyses the participation of farmers and the farming related actors in the LEADEr approach (approx. 30% of local action groups are composed by those actors, however, they mostly do not aim /similarly like non-farming actors/ at developing partnership but want to achieve the investments into production; that is why the czech local action groups are rather quasi-partnerships; it is also reflected in a very low number of strategies aiming at the "adding value to local products" which is the closest to farmers /but it is the less opted theme: only 6% of projects/). The paper ends with the analysis of projects implemented under the LEADEr scheme where the farmers participate. it shows that more than the integrated strategies, the czech local action groups prefer the strategies of the multi-sector type. The paper also points out that the publicly available information about the activities of the local action groups is not sufficient, although the groups are funded from the public budgets. This fact makes the analysis more difficult as for the scientific merit but also contradicts the principles of democratic governance. Key words:LEADEr approach in the EU and in the czech republic, farmers in the LEADEr approach, local action groups, governance Abstrakt: Článek je zaměřen na analýzu přístupu LEADEr v Čr. na základě studia dokumentů a obsahové analýzy příslušných dokumentů a informačních karet místních akčních skupin (1) ukazuje vývoj přístupu LEADEr v Čr (zde je patrný rozdíl v chápání přístupu LEADEr v EU /zaměření na utváření kapacit a využití nehmatatelných forem kapitálu/ a v Čr /zaměření na investice/), (2) přibližuje participaci zemědělců a navazujících aktérů v přístupu LEADEr (cca 30 % místních akčních skupin má tyto aktéry, kteří však ve většině případů neusilují /podobně jako ostatní nezemědělští aktéři/ o naplňování principu partnerství, ale o investice do výroby, proto mohou být takové místní akční skupiny považovány za kvazi-partnerství, což se následně odráží i ve velmi nízkém počtu strategií utvořených v tématu "zhodnocení místní produkce", jež je nejblíže k zemědělcům /ale jedná se o nejméně volené ...

“…This subsidy is not expected to be excluded from the EU funding programmes in the future (Blandford, Berketey 2008). The EU representatives are aware of these subsidies' importance; however, in the EU there is not a uniform view on defining the conditions for payments (Střeleček et al 2007;Doucha, Foltýn 2008). The aim of the payments is to maintain agriculture and the use of land by the means of adequate but not excessive financial compensations (Štolbová 2008).…”

This paper analyses the impact of the LFA payments on farms economic results on the basis of the Farm Accountancy Data network in the czech republic. Firstly, the approaches are compared to the structure of farms based on the LFA type. Secondly, the share of the LFA payments on economic results of farms is evaluated. The evaluation considers the LFA type, share of grassland, size of the eligible area of farms. Basic economic indicators are being monitored, such as gross Farm income, Farm net Value Added, Family Farm income, current subsidies, of which in particular the LFA payments. The share of the LFA payments in economic results of agricultural holdings is compared. As a result of the analysis, the winners and losers of the current system were defined.
