Project
Project code: TI-LR-08-PID1387
Contract period: 01.01.2008
- 31.08.2009
Purpose of research: Applied research
Can rural areas in Europe be allotted to specific types and does such a typification help to better assess the consequences of rural development policies with small-scale economic models?
The following results were obtained: 1) A typification depicting the diversification of the rural economy for the NUTS-3 level 2) A typification depicting the human capital for the NUTS-3-level 3) A typification depicting the competitiveness of agricultural enterprises for the NUTS-3-level 4) A typification depicting the agricultural sustainability for the NUTS-3-level 5) An EU-wide structural typology for the NUTS-2-level 6) Exemplary linking of the diversification typology of the rural economy with an economic input-output-model 7) Exemplary analysis of the consequences of two rural policy measures (diversification of the rural economy, village renewal).
