World top of countries with the most area of large-scale farms. The largest amount of land is concentrated in large-scale farms in the following countries and regions (% of total agricultural land area):


• Australia - biggest concentration of pastures at big companies in World


• Countries of South America (Brazil, Argentina, Bolivia, Uruguay, Paraguay)

 

• Russia


• Kazakhstan


• Ukraine (see also Top of Ukrainian Large Scale Farms) - biggest concentration of arable lands at big companies in World



But the amount of land that used by large agricultural enterprises does not correlate with the amount of agricultural products that produced per unit of area.
