Abstract
We prove a theorem about subdirect decompositions of lattice effect algebras. Further, we show how, under these decompositions, blocks, sets of sharp elements and centers of those effects algebras are decomposed. As an application we prove a statement about the existence of subadditive state on some block-finite effect algebras.
