摘要：In the territory of Serbia after the Second World War, the largest percentage of the population was engaged in agriculture. Industrialization in the post-war period and intensive rural-urban migration have led to a significant reduction in the number of people still engaged in agriculture. There are some differences in certain ethnic groups. In some groups, larger number of inhabitants stayed in the countryside and were engaged in agriculture, while in others, there was more intensive abandonment of the countryside and relocation to cities or departure from Serbia to some other country. The aim of this paper is to determine which ethnic groups, according to the Census of Population in 2011, are mostly engaged in agriculture in the area of Vojvodina, at the time when the percentage of the agricultural population in the northern Serbian province is reduced to only 4.4 % or to around 85,000 inhabitants. The analysis used data on the agricultural population and ethnic groups of the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia. Detailed data by ethnic groups were obtained by additional processing of the data of the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis, and the cartographic method was used for the clear presentation of the obtained results.
