“…The share of grain is dominant in the sowing structure of farms up to 20 ha and ranges up to a maximum of 80%, while in case of farms over 50 ha, share of grain is lower primarily due to the fact that the sunflower and sugar beet also appear in the structure of sowing of these farms. The smallest farms show the lowest share of industrial plants, only 19%, while in case of the largest farms, this share was 41% in the structure of sowing of arable land (Munćan et al 2014). With regard to the production of industrial plants (sunflower and sugar beet), a certain tendency in the sowing structure is observed.…”

Based on data collected through a survey of 35 family farms in Vojvodina, specialized in the market-oriented agricultural production, the interdependence of the size of family farm and structure of field crop production was studied, and its impact on the employment of permanent members actively employed in agriculture and their income. It was found that with an increase of farm size from 20 to 100 ha, the utilization of the available fund of working hours of active members increases by almost 2 times. In addition, with an increase in the size of the farm and increase in the share of industrial crops in the structure of field crop production, income per active member of the family household employed in agriculture also exhibits a tendency to increase. Income per active member, on the farms of 50-100 ha, is 3.6 times higher than the income generated on farms of 10-20 ha in size.

“…Namely, the obtained results of the analysis showed that these farms had the lowest level of intensity of production, i.e. that the utilization of arable land, as one of the most important natural resources for agricultural production, was not rational (Munćan et al, 2014). In contrast, the largest family farms are characterized by more rational use of arable land, considering much higher yields that are achieved, and also confirmed by the significantly lower effects realized by the intensifying of production using the recommended amounts of mineral fertilizers.…”

“…However, small family farms don't have adequate support from the state. The size of farm is crucial for the efficiency of operations in agriculture, so with unfavorable size of farms it is hard to be competitive in the market and in terms of increased competition (Munćan, Todorović, Munćan, 2014). In the Republic of Serbia, small farms with fragmented land have high production costs and inefficient use of resources.…”

Agricultural and rural development is a very current issue in the world. Today, agriculture is expected to meet the growing demands for the production of a sufficient amount of food. So, it is necessary to increase productivity in agriculture, while taking into account the longterm agricultural sustainability. The implementation of digitalization in agriculture leads to increased productivity, enables the growth of agricultural producers’ profits and maintenance of food security. The aim of the paper is to analyze the application of digitalization in agriculture on farms in AP Vojvodina. In the paper 46 farms from the territory of AP Vojvodina were surveyed as part of the research. The results of the research showed that digital technology is still not used enough on farms in AP Vojvodina, and the main limiting factors are financial resources, education and lack of different types of training.
