Published since 1954 (by 1999 under the title Zemědělská ekonomika). Original scientific papers dealing with agricultural subjects from the sphere of economics, management, informatics, ecology, social economy and sociology.

Agricultural Economics (AGRICECON)

This paper connects the biofuels literature with the genetic modifications literature by considering the potential of genetic modifications for increasing the efficiency of the cellulosic biofuels production. This is done for one particular case through analyzing the effect of genetically modified corn adoption on the overall yields of corn for silage. Our econometric model confirms that the use of genetically modified corn with the inserted MON810 gene increases the overall corn biomass yield in the production and environmental conditions of the Central Europe, in particular in the Czech Republic.

V naší analýze uvažujeme pouze konvenční zdroje biopaliv a necháváme stranou méně obvyklé zdroje, jako například řasy, které analyzují mj. Ziolkowska & Simon (2014), nebo geneticky modifikovanou kukuřici (Blahova et al., 2014).
