This study examines the competitive nature of the Hungarian poultry sector between 2006 and 2016. The poultry population has stagnated over the period investigated, however the farm structure has changed significantly and the population of poultry held by individual farms has decreased. In this research, market competition was measured with the persistence of abnormal profits, while profit persistence was estimated using the Arellano-Bond GMM and Blundell-Bond dynamic panel regression. Based on the results, it can be said that the level of profit in the poultry sector is close to the equilibrium profit level. The farm size, technological development as well as the tax advantages of individual farms distort competition leading to higher profits. Taking long-term risk has a negative impact on abnormal profits. The results of the research suggests that the breakthrough points for the poultry sector are technological progress and population growth, as well as a reduction in labor intensity.

“…This is followed by an increase in the average size of enterprises and the concentration in agriculture. The scale effect was found in many studies, in Benin by the example of egg poultry farms for 2010-2018 [3], in Russia by the example of pig farming for 2001-2017 [4], and others.…”

The article presents the results of research on the location and territorial concentration in agriculture. The research object is egg poultry farming, which has been one of the most stable agriculture branches in Russia for decades. The method of modified location quotients was used to analyze territorial concentration. The analysis showed that the placement of egg poultry had changed drastically in 2004–2019. Russian regions have employed opposed strategies. In many regions, egg poultry farms have been closed or repurposed. Several regions are successfully developing the industry, and egg production in these territories is several times higher than domestic needs. Ten regions of Russia with a location quotient higher than 2.0 were identified. The volume of interregional exchange is growing at a faster pace. In 2004, the regions exported 30% of the egg production, and by 2019, the share increased to 51%. Location specialization and optimization of egg farms provide economic and social benefits. With the growth of the size of enterprises, their financial stability increases. Cost-saving opportunities, increased egg production, and competition between producers in the domestic market help to hold prices down.

“…Houedjofonon et al have studied the relationship between family farm economy and total factor productivity in Benin, Africa. Through the study of the translog function, it is found that the impact of family farm economy on productivity is negative, and the government can encourage the development of farm economy [ 13 ]. Haller and Lyons studied the impact of the popularization of broadband network in Ireland on the total factor productivity of enterprises through the spatial information correlation method and found that compared with the service industry, the popularization of network has a greater impact on the total factor productivity of administrative support enterprises [ 14 ].…”

My country’s current research on the influencing factors of total factor productivity has problems such as single evaluation method, low efficiency, and poor overall level in terms of evaluation methods and evaluation efficiency. Based on this, this study divides the financial structure into three traditional sections, banking, securities, and insurance, and uses the DEA model to study the temporal and spatial differences of the financial structure’s influence on the total factor productivity of the four major political and economic regions of China’s eastern, western, central, and northeastern China. First, establish a DEA model based on data mining algorithms, combine financial data comparisons over the years, to achieve a quantitative analysis of the financial structure’s impact on China’s total factor productivity, calculate financial efficiency, and then combine the DEA analysis data model with the grey correlation method. Analyze its internal influence rules, and design experiments for model verification analysis. The results show that the DEA analysis model can realize 8 iterations of data on the impact of financial structure on China’s total factor productivity, and its evaluation accuracy can reach more than 96.2%.
