From the research of relevant literature and statistical data, the authors analyse relationship between farm size and land productivity in EU agriculture and policy implications. The statistical test (for the period of 1981-1990) has shown that there is a strong negative relationship between farm size and land productivity in EU agriculture, which exists despite differences in fertilizer use, amount of land and production mix. The empirical results have shown that relatively small farms achieve higher output per unit of land, but they must be interpreted cautiously. Mainly because of the omission in the measurements of double cropping and extensive grazing and also, because of omission of some variables due to the relatively small number of observations.
