| Abstract: | The paper investigates the selection mechanisms of
rural development policy using a survey among farmers
in the Southern Great Plain region characterising by the
high level of unemployment and strong agricultural
background. We focus on the farmers social-economic
characteristics explaining of success of application for
rural development subsidies employing selection and
count models. Estimations show that the higher
educated and older farmers more likely apply for rural
supports, whilst the share of less favoured land affects
negatively on the application for subsidy. We found
selection bias in the success of application. Results imply
that farmers with less favoured land less likely receive,
whilst higher educated and older farmers more likely
receive rural supports. Similarly, the share of less
favoured area affects negatively for number of
successful application both in terms of type and number
of subsidy |
