Since 72% of total enterprises of agricultural industry in Republic of Srpska has no short-term liquidity, 68% of them has no long-term liquidity, 63% of enterprises has more than 50% of financial sources financed through debt, and 66% of them is insolvent from the banking sector point of view, it can be concluded that majority of agricultural companies' financial position is between acceptable and bad.
