      abstract = {Serbia is characterized by a very low consumption of meat  and meat products, and constantly depends on import of  agricultural and food products. One of the reasons for low  consumption of meat in Serbia, in addition to a low  standard of living, are the lack of production and supply  of meat, resulting in occasional shortages and considerable  fluctuation in prices of meat during the year.
The goal of  this paper is to explore the possibilities for improvement  of economic results by changing the type of production in  agricultural enterprises. Observed agricultural enterprise  is focused solely on intensive crop production, with all  the necessary machinery for its organization, and includes  large functional objects for fattening pigs.
The method of  linear programming is used to optimize the production of  this agricultural enterprise in function of maximizing  gross margin. Obtained solution and post-optimal analysis  showed that the change of the type of production is  cost-effective in economic terms, as in the terms of  rational use of available capacity. This model represents  one of the specified ways to improve and increase livestock  production in Serbia, as well as the possibility to  increase employment and income of labor in rural areas.},
