Based on macro and micro-economic data analysis, the article presents a review of czech agriculture. In 1995, after a recessive adaptation, the agricultural production seems to enter into a boost (variable within productions). Despite the tightening of price scissors and the granting of direct subsidies, it does not allow the farmers to insure the renewal of working capital yet -whatever their juridical form or their localisation is-. This leads the governement to set up a strong supportive policy. It actually aims at encouraging a competitive agriculture in low agronomic constraints areas as well as developing extensive systems in less favoured areas. Applied to an agriculture where big structures prevail, where farms are not very specialized and where labour remains important, this policy influences the choices of aid that European Union may grant.
