5. What impact does the relief have on the efficiency in the Netherlands and in Slovenia

We found out that the relief has a big influence on the efficiency. The Netherlands has a flat relief and that's why farmers have different equipment in Slovenia. Slovenian farmers use some special equipment for land cultivating in the mountains. The farmers from the Netherlands have bigger lands at one place, so they use bigger tractors which work faster than the tractors in Slovenia do. Because of the relief we have lots of smaller farms in Slovenia, but when they put the farms together, the efficiency is still a lot better in the Netherlands.
