Title	Economic Efficiency of Table Grape Production in Waterberg and Sekhukhune Districts, Limpopo Province, South Africa
Słowa kluczowe	efficiency, farmers, table grapes, South Africa, stochastic frontier model
Key words	efficiency, farmers, table grapes, South Africa, stochastic frontier model
Abstrakt	Table grape production plays an important role in the economy of many countries in Africa. It serves as a source of income for the people who are engaged in its production and being one of the enterprises that is labour-intensive, thereby providing employment for more people. The main purpose of this study was to analyse the economic efficiency of table grape production in Waterberg and Sekhukhune Districts of Limpopo province, South Africa. The study used primary data collected through administration of structured questionnaires on a sample of 12 farmers by employing a snowball sampling method. Analytical tools employed include descriptive statistics (such as tables and frequencies), Stochastic Frontier Model and Technical Inefficiency Model. Results from data analysis revealed that in terms of efficiency, farming experience (p<0.01), educational level (p<0.05), household size (p<0.10) and age of farmer (p<0.10) were associated with increased efficiency indicating that these factors play important roles in ensuring that resources used in the production of table grapes enhanced productivity and were not wasted. Also, technical efficiency among farmers was found to range from 0.8 to 1, with a mean of 0.89, thus implying a major possibility for improvement in production. However, the allocative efficiency was found to range from 0.47 to 1, with a mean of 0.68. This indicates that some farmers were finding it difficult to allocate their resources efficiently. Again, economic efficiency ranges from 0.56 to 1, with a mean of 0.73, an indication that most of the farmers were economically efficient. Meanwhile, some of the constraints faced by these farmers include high electricity bills and labour costs, water shortages as well as instability around land policy. The study therefore recommends capacity building of farmers through education and other skill enhancement programmes. Also, provision of incentives to encourage youth participation in farming through internship programmes is very important to increase farm productivity.

Title
Słowa kluczowe	ecological education, pro-ecological attitudes, pro-ecological behaviours, students
Key words
Abstrakt	The aim of the study is to present the pro-ecological (i.e. favourable for ecology, acting in favour of environment) attitudes of people who study at the Faculty of Economic Sciences of the Warsaw University of Life Sciences – SGGW. The theoretical part discusses the concept and the essence of ecology and ecological awareness, as well as the elements and significance of ecological education. In the practical part, the attitude of the group of students of the Faculty of Economic Sciences at the WULS-SGGW to the necessity of pro-ecological behaviours and their expectations regarding the ways of propagating knowledge and activities in the field of environmental education is presented. It turned out that more than 90% of the respondents consider such behaviours as a necessary one, while around 60% believe that the entities responsible for promoting it among the society – in the form of obligatory education – should be schools and universities. Finally, the study contains original conclusions and findings regarding the observations made during the research.

Tytuł	CONSUMERS' AWARENESS OF THEIR RIGHTS WHEN SHOPPING FOR FOOD ONLINE AMONG PEOPLE AGED OVER 45
Title
Słowa kluczowe	consumers, e-commerce, food law
Key words
Abstrakt	The aim of the article is to assess the awareness of consumer rights among people shopping for food online. The study was carried out on 529 respondents shopping for food online. The obtained results showed that the majority of the respondents assess their awareness of consumer rights in the purchase of food online as good. Nevertheless, part of the respondents failed to unequivocally and clearly respond to statements concerning the level of their awareness. The study findings indicate the need for education in the consumer rights of people shopping for food online. This seems to be particularly justified in light of growing interest in online shopping, including online shopping for food.

Title
Słowa kluczowe	market segmentation, psychographic factors, relevant factors, questionnaires, respondents.
Key words
Abstrakt	The purpose of the article is to substantiate the emergence of new – and the development of existing – factors and segmentation criteria for meeting consumer needs and increasing the efficiency of marketing activities for Ukrainian enterprises under modern market conditions. The object of the research is to analyze the process of development and any increases in the effectiveness of marketing segmentation. The subject of research is the theoretical, methodical and practical provisions of the formation of targeted marketing segmentation for the markets of Ukrainian enterprises. The goal of the research is to evaluate the direction and type of market segmentation that determines future target segments for enterprises and their share of existing markets. We present the characteristics of enterprises that work on market relations for the production and sale of computer devices that provide network connections. Our method was to estimate the direction and type of market segmentation in order to determine the prospective segments for such enterprises and their share of the existing market. In order to evaluate the attractiveness of target segments for Ukrainian enterprises, a survey was conducted to validate customer reactions. The analyzed variables included: the length of time a person uses his/her computer device; the reasons for possible changes and important settings when choosing a computer device; the timeframe for buying a computer device. The results of the questionnaire are separated by gender, social and geographic factors, as well as by family composition and age of respondents, taking into account the stages of their life cycle, as well as their educational level and professions – for three enterprises. Particular attention was paid to the psychographic factors of occupation and social class. The questionnaire also contained a self-assessment section on the psychological qualities of the consumer and on their psychography, which we analyzed. The hypotheses presented by individual factors and the consumer segment, separated by the results of the survey, and the analysis of the respondents' answers, are presented. Confirmation of the hypotheses and isolation of the consumer segment are given.

Key words
Abstrakt	The formation of professional competences of modern economists requires from the educational institution, from the teachers fundamentally new approaches in professional education: the integration of pedagogical, economic and entrepreneurial knowledge, skills and abilities. The aim of the study is to analyze modern approaches to the formulation of the concept of »competence«, to find out the components of professional competence for the preparation of future economists. General scientific methods of research have been applied: induction and deduction, refinement and classification. The modern approaches to the formulation of the concept of »competence« have been analyzed in the article. Historical and terminological analysis of its essence made it possible to find out the components, the structure of professional competence. Special attention has been paid to the content of key and substantive competence. The formation of professional competence of economists must be carried out taking into account the modern requirements in the field of education, educational programs of the specialty. Thus, a highly skilled economist one can become due to a high motivational indicator, confidence in the correct selection of the future kind of activity, the desire to acquire as much information professional material and its transformation into knowledge, which will lead to professionalism in the process of the vocational practice. In the subsequent research, we will substantiate the process of forming the competitiveness of future economists.

Title	Alternative Local Food Shopping Communities in Hungary
Słowa kluczowe	local food, consumer communities, food consumer behaviour, questionnaire study, cluster analysis
Key words	local food, consumer communities, food consumer behaviour, questionnaire study, cluster analysis
Abstrakt	As a result of concerns about the long-term sustainability of globalized retail trade and the stronger presence of health conscious consumer behaviour, governments and groups of conscious consumers worldwide are increasingly focusing on the promotion and development of local food systems and small-scale retail chains and the production of quality local food products to promote the market. In our paper, we would like to give an overview of community-led alternative types of local food systems, with particular attention to shopping community-type consumer and consumer communities. We also describe the main results of our primary research in the population and the shopping community. During the questionnaire we revealed general consumer behaviour and the demand and attitude of local food, the popularity of the customer communities in the settlement of the respondents. In the survey conducted among members of the consumer community, we looked at the analytical areas designated as a target in the population questionnaire for the purpose of comparability and our aim was to explore the sociometrics and lifestyles of communities as well as their community experiences and possible developments. Our hypothesis is that there is a close correlation between the respondents with higher education and income and the preferences of local food. Furthermore, it is assumed that there is a significant difference between the food consumption behaviors of the two samples examined.

Abstrakt	Głównym celem badań zaprezentowanych w artykule była ocena spójności powiatów województwa mazowieckiego pod względem rozwoju społecznego – jednego z trzech podstawowych wymiarów zrównoważonego rozwoju. Poziom rozwoju społecznego powiatów (jednostek terytorialnych NUTS 4) zmierzono przy wykorzystaniu autorskiego wskaźnika syntetycznego obejmującego 12 zmiennych diagnostycznych, z których w wyniku analizy czynnikowej wyodrębniono cztery obszary (czynniki): demografia, edukacja, ochrona zdrowia oraz sytuacja na lokalnym rynku pracy. Przedstawiono zróżnicowanie poziomu rozwoju w czasie i między powiatami. Z przeprowadzonych badań wynika, że w latach 2006–2015 najbardziej rozwinięte pod względem społecznym były miasta na prawach powiatów (Siedlce, Ostrołęka, Płock, Warszawa i Radom), a najmniej powiaty ziemskie z południowej i wschodniej (peryferyjnej) części województwa mazowieckiego (siedlecki, lipski i przysuski). Średni poziom rozwoju powiatów Mazowsza, mierzony wskaźnikiem syntetycznym, wykazał tendencję wzrostową, a dysproporcje między najbardziej i najmniej rozwiniętymi powiatami w tym czasie uległy zmniejszeniu.
Abstract	The main objective of the research presented in this paper was to determine the interregional coherence in social development – one of the three basic dimensions of sustainable development – taking the Poland’s Mazovia province (voivodship) as the object of analysis. The level of social development of NUTS 4 local territorial units (poviats) was measured by the original composite or synthetic index constructed with the use of factor analysis. This index comprises 12 diagnostic categories finally divided into four index components (factors): demography, education, health care and the local labour market performance. The developmental differences over time and across poviats were presented. According to the research results, in the years 2006–2015 the most developed in terms of social outcomes were towns with poviat rights (Siedlce, Ostrołęka, Płock, Warsaw and Radom) while the least developed were those located in the southern and eastern peripheral parts of the Mazovian region (siedlecki, lipski and przysuski). The poviats’ average level of development, as measured by the composite index, was marked by an increasing tendency. The development disparities between the most and least developed poviats have decreased over the period analyzed.

Tytuł	Deconsumption in consumer behaviour of Polish seniors
Title	Dekonsumpcja w zachowaniach konsumenckich osób starszych w Polsce
Słowa kluczowe	deconsumption, consumption, seniors, consumer behaviour
Key words	dekonsumpcja, konsumpcja, seniorzy, zachowania konsumentów
Abstrakt	Deconsumption is manifested as voluntary abandonment of behaviours aimed at satisfying the desires created by marketers in favour of conscious, rational and ethical choices to meet one’s needs. This consumer trend essentially involves voluntary discontinuation of egocentric consumption behaviour that may result both from the motivation of an egocentric individual focused on the good and from concern for the welfare of social groups, future generations and the natural environment, or may ensue from purely altruistic motivation. The article seeks to provide some insight into the reasons and scope of deconsumption in consumer behaviour of people aged 65+ in Poland. The study consists of two parts: theoretical and empirical. The first one explains the concept and essence of deconsumption as well as its key forms and determinants, building upon a critical analysis of literature. The second, major part is empirical. The basis for conclusions is provided by research material collected by means of a questionnaire-based survey among Polish seniors. The survey clearly shows that the level of deconsumption, and thus consumer behaviour consistent with this trend, is most influenced by demographic and social characteristics of those aged 65+ such as: age, sex, education, income and place of residence. It turned out that the female seniors surveyed evinced more interest in deconsumption than their male counterparts. Following the analysis, it can also be concluded that young old people (65–74) who have completed higher and secondary education, earn a monthly income of above PLN 3000.00 per capita, live in Warsaw, Gdańsk, Wrocław and Poznań and actively participate in UTA courses are most strongly influenced by the deconsumption trend, which is becoming an increasingly common way of life for the elderly.
Abstract	Dekonsumpcja przejawia się dobrowolnym odejściem konsumentów od zachowań zorientowanych na zaspokajanie kreowanych przez marketerów pragnień na rzecz wyboru świadomego, racjonalnego i etycznego, związanego z zaspokajaniem odczuwanych potrzeb. Podstawową istotą tego trendu konsumenckiego jest dobrowolne odejście od egocentrycznych zachowań konsumpcyjnych, które mogą być zarówno konsekwencją motywacji egocentrycznej jednostki zorientowanej na dobro, jak i wynikającej z troski o dobro grup społecznych, przyszłych pokoleń oraz o środowisko naturalne lub wynikać z motywacji czysto altruistycznej. Celem artykułu jest poznanie przyczyn i zakresu dekonsumpcji w zachowaniach konsumenckich osób w wieku 65+ w Polsce. Opracowanie składa się z dwóch części: teoretycznej i empirycznej. W pierwszej z nich na podstawie krytycznej analizy literatury wyjaśniono pojęcie i istotę dekonsumpcji oraz kluczowe formy które ona przyjmuje oraz uwarunkowania. Druga zasadnicza część pracy ma charakter empiryczny. Podstawę wnioskowania stanowi materiał badawczy pozyskany dzięki przeprowadzonym przez autora badaniom w formie wywiadu kwestionariuszowego wśród polskich seniorów. Z przeprowadzonego badania wynika, że na poziom dekonsumpcji, a tym samym na zachowania konsumenckie wpisujące się we wspomniany trend konsumencki wśród osób w wieku 65+, największy wpływ mają czynniki demograficzno-społeczne, takie jak: wiek, płeć, poziom wykształcenia, poziom dochodów i miejsce zamieszkania. Okazało się, że badane seniorki wykazywały większe zainteresowanie zjawiskiem dekonsumpcji niż seniorzy. Z przeprowadzonej analizy można również konstatować, że osoby w wieku podeszłym (65–74 lata), legitymujące się wykształceniem wyższym i średnim, osiągające miesięczny dochód per capita powyżej 3000,00 zł, zamieszkujące Warszawę, Gdańsk, Wrocław i Poznań oraz aktywnie uczestniczące na zajęciach organizowanych przez UTW, w największym stopniu ulegają dekonsumpcji, która to staje się dla osób starszych coraz powszechniejszym sposobem na życie.

Tytuł	DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIAL CAPITAL BY STRENGTHENING OF DIGITAL COMPETENCES AMONG GROUPS EXPOSED TO SOCIAL EXCLUSION
Title
Słowa kluczowe	social capital, key competences, digital competences, digital exclusion, Łowicki county
Key words
Abstrakt	Competitive advantage in the professional market is shaped by the competences possessed, i.e. skills, qualifications, and permissions. One of the eight types of key competences mentioned in the European Union documents is digital competence.It is a collection of knowledge, skills, and rudiments necessary for both, the purposeful point of view and active participation of a given person in social life. The low level of digital competences possessed is particularly visible among groups at risk of digital exclusion, in particular among people living in rural areas, the elderly and people with low education. The difference between people who have access to a computer and the Internet and people who do not have the possibility to use these devices is affected by the dynamic development of information and communication technologies. Digital exclusion is not only the lack of access to the appropriate infrastructure but also the lack of computer and Internet skills. In order to counteract the exclusion of these groups, activities aimed at developing social capital by strengthening digital competences play an important role.

Tytuł	Efektywność i skuteczność kształcenia akademickiego na przykładzie Szkoły Głównej Gospodarstwa Wiejskiego w Warszawie
Title	Efficiency and effectiveness of academic teaching based on the example of Warsaw University of Life Sciences – SGGW
Słowa kluczowe	efektywność, skuteczność, szkolnictwo wyższe, kształcenie
Key words	efficiency, effectiveness, higher education, teaching
Abstrakt	W artykule podjęto dyskusję na temat efektywności i skuteczności kształcenia akademickiego. Dokonano przeglądu literatury krajowej i zagranicznej w tym zakresie. W artykule zaprezentowano także wyniki wstępnych badań dla dwunastu wydziałów Szkoły Głównej Gospodarstwa Wiejskiego w Warszawie. Analiza efektywności i skuteczności działalności dydaktycznej dotyczyła lat akademickich 2014/2015–2015/2016. Żaden z uwzględnionych w badaniu wydziałów nie odznaczał się pełną efektywnością i skutecznością. Istnieje potrzeba kontynuacji badań na większej, ale wewnętrznie jednorodnej próbie badawczej.
Abstract	The paper discusses the efficiency and effectiveness of academic teaching. A review of the relevant domestic and international literature is included. The article presents also the results of research for twelve faculties of the Warsaw University of Life Sciences – SGGW. The analysis covers the period from 2014/2015 to 2015/2016. None of the faculties included in the study was characterized by full efficiency and effectiveness. There is a need to continue research on a larger, but internally homogeneous research sample.

Tytuł	Ochrona konsumentów na wybranych rynkach usług w świetle regulacji prawnych i możliwości pozasądowego rozwiązywania sporów konsumenckich
Title	Consumer protection in selected service markets in the light of legal regulations and the possibility of out-of-court resolution of consumer disputes
Słowa kluczowe	ochrona konsumentów, rynek usług, regulacje prawne, dochodzenie roszczeń przez konsumentów, spory konsumenckie, pozasądowe rozwiązywanie sporów konsumenckich
Key words	consumer protection, services market, legal regulations, consumer claim pursuing, out-of-court resolution of consumers’ disputes.
Abstrakt	Celem niniejszego artykułu jest przedstawienie regulacji prawnych, w których ujęto problematykę ochrony konsumentów na rynku wybranych usług oraz sposoby dochodzenia roszczeń przez konsumentów w przypadku naruszenia ich praw. W ramach badań dokonano analizy danych wtórnych, tj. aktów prawnych, sprawozdań wybranych podmiotów sektorowych (publicznych i niepublicznych) w zakresie pozasądowego rozwiązywania sporów między konsumentem a przedsiębiorcą, wynikających z zawartej z konsumentem umowy. Dokonane analizy wskazują, że nie zawsze przestrzegane są prawa konsumentów na rynku usług. Ponadto, pomimo zwiększającego się zainteresowania polubownym sposobem rozwiązywania sporów, nadal istnieje konieczność prowadzenia przez różne instytucje i organizacje działań informacyjno-edukacyjnych w tym zakresie. Przyczyni się to do wzrostu świadomości istnienia możliwości wykorzystania tego sposobu rozwiązywania sporów, zarówno wśród przedsiębiorców, jak i konsumentów.
Abstract	The purpose of this article is to present legal regulations which included the issues of consumer protection on the market of selected services and ways of pursuing claims by consumers in case of rights violation. The research consist of secondary data analysis i.e. legal acts, reports of selected sector entities (public and non-public) in terms of out-of-court dispute resolution between the consumer and the entrepreneur resulting from the contract concluded with the consumer. The results of the data analysis show that consumers’ rights are not always respected on the services market. Moreover, despite the growing interest in the amicable way of disputes resolving, there is still a need to carry out information and education activities in this area provided by various institutions and organizations. This will increase the awareness of existence the possibility of using this method of dispute resolution both among entrepreneurs and consumers.

Tytuł	Znajomość praw przysługujących konsumentom dokonującym zakupu żywności przez Internet
Title	The familiarity with consumer’s rights purchase food on the Internet
Słowa kluczowe	Internet, zakup żywności, ochrona konsumentów, znajomość praw
Key words	Internet, grocery shopping, consumer protection, familiarity with the rights
Abstrakt	Celem artykułu jest ocena znajomości praw przysługujących konsumentom dokonującym zakupów żywności przez Internet. Badanie zrealizowano wśród 600 respondentów będących w wieku 25–44 lat, dokonujących zakupu żywności przez Internet. Uzyskane wyniki potwierdzają, że rodzaj informacji udostępnianych przez przedsiębiorców, sposób ich podawania (które są konsekwencją obowiązujących regulacji prawnych) mogą przyczyniać się do postrzegania zakupów w sieci jako dobrej alternatywy tradycyjnych form sprzedaży żywności (sklepy stacjonarne). Jednocześnie warto zwrócić uwagę, że część ankietowanych nie potrafiła jednoznacznie ustosunkować się do praw przysługujących konsumentom podczas zakupu żywności przez Internet, nie zawsze też jest świadoma zasad składania reklamacji, co wskazuje na konieczność dalszego prowadzenia działań edukacyjnych skierowanych do konsumentów w tym zakresie.
Abstract	The aim of the article is an assessment of the familiarity with the rights to which the consumers are entitled when they purchase food on the Internet. The study was carried out among 600 respondents aged 25–44 years who purchase food via the Internet. The results which were obtained confirm that the kind of information that is made available by the entrepreneurs, as well as the manner in which this information is provided (which results from legal regulations), might contribute to the fact that shopping online is perceived as a good alternative for traditional shops where food can be bought. Simultaneously, it is worth noticing that a number of respondents were not able to take an unequivocal stance with regard to purchasing food online. Moreover, they are not always aware of complaint making rules, which indicates that it is necessary to conduct further educational actions targeted at the consumers in this area.

Tytuł	Zatrudnienie a intensywność rolnictwa państw Unii Europejskiej
Title	Employment and Intensity of Agriculture of European Union Countries
Słowa kluczowe	zatrudnienie, intensywność rolnictwa, państwa Unii Europejskiej
Key words	employment, agriculture intensity, European Union countries
Abstrakt	Celem artykułu jest omówienie zatrudnienia w kontekście intensywności w rolnictwie państw Unii Europejskiej na podstawie wybranych cech. Analizę przeprowadzono dla 2016 roku. Badanie przeprowadzono za pomocą analizy skupień. Do analizy przyjęto następujące cechy diagnostyczne: udział ludności czynnej zawodowo w rolnictwie z niskim poziomem wykształcenia w całkowitej liczbie ludności czynnej zawodowo (%), udział ludności zatrudnionej w rolnictwie w ludności zatrudnionej ogółem (%), produktywność pracy w rolnictwie (EUR/AWU), udział wartości dodanej dostarczanej przez sektor rolniczy (%), udział użytków rolnych zarządzanych przez gospodarstwa o dużej intensywności w użytkach rolnych ogółem (%) oraz średnia ekonomiczna wielkość gospodarstw (SO/gospodarstwo w EUR). W wyniku zastosowania analizy skupień podzielono badane państwa na cztery grupy. Zgodnie z wynikami w państwach o wysokim poziomie zatrudnienia w rolnictwie zwykle mniejszy jest udział wartości dodanej dostarczanej przez sektor rolniczy. Natomiast w państwach o niższym udziale zatrudnionych w rolnictwie intensywność rolnictwa jest z reguły większa.
Abstract	The objective of the article is to discuss employment in the context of the agriculture intensity in European Union countries based on selected features. The analysis was conducted for 2016. Research was examined using the cluster analysis. The following diagnostic features were used for the analysis: share of working population in agriculture with low educational attainment in total working population (%), share of working population in agriculture in total working population (%), labour productivity in agriculture (EUR/AWU), distribution of GVA by primary sector (%), share of UAA managed by farms with high input intensity per ha (%), average economic farm size (SO/holding in EUR). As a result of the cluster analysis, the examined regions were divided into four groups. According to the results, in countries with high levels of employment in agriculture, the share of added value provided by the agricultural sector is usually smaller. However, in countries with a lower share of people employed in agriculture, the intensity of agriculture is usually higher.
