The paper is discussing the evolution of economic parameters of agricultural production in favoured and less favoured areas of Slovakia. As the analysis has shown, current policies have failed to encourage less favoured area farmers to switch to a low-input model of agriculture. This can be attributed to the fact, that in both regions farmers' receipts still remain dependent mostly on prices. In less favoured areas, direct payments provide only for 19% of farmers cost compensation. As we have observed, in both the favoured an less favoured areas approximately the same pace of growth in total agricultural output, per unit crop yields and labour productivity has taken place during the 5 years period of transformation. Area payments disbursed to farmers in less favoured areas did not compensate farmers fully for their per hectar income deficiency. Loss-making farming has sustained here thus deteriorating the overall efficiency of Slovak agriculture
