According to the papers results, the level of farmers fnancial knowledge is low; at the state level there hasnt been established satisfying fnancial education of farmers. It is necessary to establish continuous education programs in this feld through agricultural extension services; at the state level, it is important to improve the coordination between different state bodies that conduct an educational program in agricultural sector, as well as the science research results and to make an educational material available to farmers.

This theoretical concept is currently being accepted in the activities of the Government of the Republic of Serbia.
