Summary/Abstract: The present scientific paper builds on previous scientific studies analyzing the determinants of productivity and economic efficiency of agricultural entities and extends knowledge about the area of spatial econometrics at NUTS IV level (at district level) for the reporting period. The paper aimed to assess the development of productivity and economic efficiency of agricultural entities in the reporting period based on synthetic evaluation of selected economic indicators using the methods of cluster analysis and thus to create spatial map according to regional differentiation at NUTS IV level. Based on the analyzes we conclude that the natural and climatic conditions have a dominant influence on achievable productivity and economic efficiency of agricultural entities whilst ensuring the sustainability of economic performance of agriculture in individual regions of Slovakia.
