摘要：The paper analyzes socio-economic processes in the family farming of Dalmatia. It has been determined that the number of family farms and agricultural population are decreasing, which has also been the case with the number of total population over the last ten years. The second part of the paper points out the processes that occurred in family farming, based on results of a descriptive research carried out during the period from 1971 to 1992, covering the following: activities of farm members, land capacities and ownership structure, land use structure, farm equipment, live-stock, sales market, and the significance of profit made from farming. The landed property is on the decrease, while uncultivated soil is increasing. Principal crops are being abandoned, with diverse production directed to farm needs prevailing. A fraction of farms have turned to a larger-scale specialized production for market purposes. Mechanization of farms is on the increase, particularly with low-powered tractors. The income from farming is significant in the majority of farms, although their working resources are designated to business opportunities outside the farms. The final section of the paper deals with what the future might bring forth, which can only aid the development of agriculture in Dalmatia through its expertise and orientation.
