Abstract

The author summarizes the economic situation regarding beef, milk, broiler chicken, egg and pork production between the period 1989–1999 in Hungary. The production costs and their variance – best worst 10% of the producers – are evaluated for 1998 and 1999 respectively. Based on model calculations and simulations a forecast is given for the various branches of animal production regarding their possible structural changes after Hungary joins the EU. All main results are presented in graphical form.
