heal.abstractThis study introduces a different perspective on the depopulation challenge in Greek communities, emphasizing in the influence of agricultural subsidies on population growth rate in rural areas. Census reports exposed a consis- tent decline in the Greek population, accompanied by the abandonment of the agricultural sector and the trend of urbanization. The research adopts a mixed methods approach, employing linear regression models to quantify the relationship between subsidy growth and population growth through Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) estimation. The findings indicate a positive correlation between subsidies and population growth, along with a negative impact as- sociated with the altitude of a community. A classification method is also used, specifically the K-Means algorithm, in order group the communities and investigate the similar behavior. For the first time, this study examines the behavior of island communities from the perspective of agricultural subsidiza- tion, uncovering distinct behaviors compared to mainland regions. Finally, the elasticity of population concerning agricultural subsidies (efficiency index) for each community is computed and compared with the neighbor possessing the longest border length among all neighbors associated with each community. Using this approach, it is found that communities with the most substantial reduction are likely to experience the most significant increase in population growth.en
