ABSTRACT:
Agriculture is a sector in Lithuania that plays an important role in the country‘s economy and at the same time performs a significant social ethno-cultural and environmental function. Rural development and the agricultural sector have undergone several changes during the transition period from one economical system to another. Rural areas are regarded as the country’s infrastructure determining the living standards of the urban and rural population. The economic development of the two branches of agriculture – crop production and livestock production – is harmonized not enough. The economic and social changes in agriculture and country life have been significant, especially in farming revenues, technologies, farm size, agricultural employment and rural life style. There were examined 48 farmers’ farms (with specialization in milk products manufacturing) from 15 districts of Lithuania. This article shows the way of functionating of the rural development measures “Standardization” (Nitrates Directive 91/676/EEC and Council Directive 92/46/EEC – Milk Directive) for farm manure and milk production in the range of supporting the development of rural areas in Lithuania. The results of the investigation show that 71 percent of small and average milk farms decided to make a request according to either of the directives (Nitrates and Milk) and 29 percents – according to Milk Directive.
