Tytuł	System monitoringu masowych szkód w uprawach rolnych wywołanych anomaliami pogodowymi w Polsce – propozycja udoskonalenia
Title	Monitoring system of mass damage to agricultural crops due to weather anomalies in Poland – a proposal for improvement
Słowa kluczowe	ryzyko ubezpieczeniowe, ubezpieczenie upraw, ubezpieczenia rolne, innowacje
Key words	insurance risk, crop insurance, agricultural insurance, inn
Abstrakt	Każdego roku w polskim rolnictwie występują straty wywołane niekorzystnymi zjawiskami atmosferycznymi. Szacowanie wielkości szkód tradycyjnymi metodami jest zbyt czasochłonne, może trwać nawet kilka miesięcy, co utrudnia wypłatę odszkodowań i zmniejsza zaufanie do krajowego systemu ubezpieczeń. W artykule zaproponowano nowoczesną metodę monitoringu umożliwiającą skrócenie tego okresu do kilku dni, przy jednoczesnym zwiększeniu jakości oraz dokładności danych. Zaproponowane rozwiązanie jest w pełni wykonalne i ma uzasadnienie ekonomiczne. Pozwala bowiem o wiele szybciej i z większą precyzją planować wydatki ze środków publicznych w przypadku wystąpienia negatywnych skutków anomalii pogodowych.
Abstract	Every year in Polish agriculture there are losses caused by adverse weather phenomena. Estimating the amount of damage by traditional methods is too time-consuming; it can take up to several months, which makes it difficult to pay compensation and reduces confidence in the national insurance system. The article proposes a modern monitoring method that allows shortening this period to several days, while increasing the quality and accuracy of the data. The proposed solution is fully feasible and has economic justification. It allows for much faster and more precise planning of public spending in case of negative effects of weather anomalies.

Tytuł	Atrybuty zaufania dotyczące jakości jako czynnik wpływający na decyzje nabywcze konsumentów żywności
Title	Credence attributes as a factor infl uencing consumer food purchasing decision
Słowa kluczowe	żywność, konsument, determinanty wyboru, atrybuty zaufania dotyczące jakości, znaki jakości
Key words	food, consumer, choice determinants, credence quality attributes, quality labels
Abstrakt	W artykule przedstawiono wyniki badań dotyczących atrybutów zaufania dotyczących jakości jako czynników wpływających na wybory konsumentów żywności, zrealizowanych wśród 1203 respondentów metodą CAWI. Uzyskane dane wykorzystano w celu identyfikacji segmentów konsumentów o zróżnicowanych determinantach wyboru żywności oraz zainteresowaniu żywnością, której znakowanie wpisuje się w koncepcję atrybutów zaufania dotyczących jakości. Wyniki badań wskazują, że respondenci odnoszą się bardzo pozytywnie do żywności pochodzącej z określonego regionu lub też lokalnej produkcji. W mniejszym stopniu wybory konsumentów są warunkowane atrybutami związanymi z troską o środowisko naturalne i dobrostan zwierząt. Młodzi konsumenci są mniej zainteresowani żywnością regionalną, ale bardziej zwracają uwagę na kwestie dobrostanu zwierząt. Najwyższy poziom znajomości wszystkich spośród badanych znaków jakości odnotowano wśród respondentów przypisanych do segmentu 3, którzy częściej deklarowali regularne zakupy żywności ekologicznej, posiadali wyższy poziom wykształcenia oraz byli skłonni do podejmowania zachowań na rzecz ochrony środowiska i dobrostanu zwierząt, jak również przejawiali zainteresowanie relacją między żywnością i zdrowiem.
Abstract	The paper presents the results of a research on the credence attributes of food as factors influencing consumer food choices using quantitative CAWI survey among 1203 respondents. The data obtained was used to identify consumer segments that differ in terms of their determinants of food choices and interest in food products labelled with reference to the credence quality attributes. The results show that the respondents are very positive about food, coming from a specific region or local production. To a lesser extent, consumer choices are determined by attributes related to the care for the environment and animal welfare. However, younger respondents were more receptive to claims related to animal welfare than regional food. The highest level of familiarity with all of the surveyed labels was noted among respondents assigned to segment 3, who were more often regular organic consumers, better educated, likely to take care for environment, concerned with animal welfare and interested in the relationship between food and health.

Title
Słowa kluczowe	Natural resource curse, Dutch disease, oil market
Key words
Abstrakt	Dutch disease phenomenon can be observed in a country that discovers an important and substantial natural resource deposit and starts exporting it on a large scale. In consequence, the country’s currency appreciates reducing competitiveness of its traditional export sector, including agricultural sector. The Dutch disease is considered to be one of the most significant reasons for the natural resource curse. The aim of the paper is to consolidate a growing literature on the Dutch disease and to provide theoretical framework for analysing this phenomenon. It refers to both developed and developing oil-exporting countries. The paper stresses the fact that the vulnerability to the Dutch disease depends strongly on economic policy, political regime and quality of institutions.

Title	Management and Certification Process for Organic Production in Ukraine and Poland
Słowa kluczowe	organic production, agricultural production, quality, agriculture, control, certification, financial support
Key words	organic production, agricultural production, quality, agriculture, control, certification, financial support
Abstrakt	A systematic analysis of trends in the development of organic products in Ukraine and Poland was carried out, which showed that the total area of certified ecological lands for the study period from 2006-2016 in Ukraine increased by 1.7 times, and in Poland from 2004-2014 it increased by 12 times. It has been established that the most significant impact on qualitative structural changes in the economic sector is adjustment to European standards that establish a favorable system of agricultural production regulation, marking and inspection of organic products. This is why Poland, while being in the European Union, has a significant advantage over Ukraine. The system of control and certification by the authorized bodies is generalized, as well as the mechanism of financial support for organic agricultural production. The necessity of using the experience of Poland with the purpose of greening agriculture and development of organic agricultural production in Ukraine is emphasized.

Tytuł	Białko roślinne – źródła, koszty produkcji i jakość
Title	Plant Protein – Sources, Production Costs and Quality
Słowa kluczowe	białko, koszty produkcji, wartość odżywcza białka
Key words	protein, production costs, protein quality
Abstrakt	Białko należy do podstawowych składników odżywczych niezbędnych do utrzymania życia. Światowe prognozy pokazują, że będzie to podstawowy makroskładnik limitujący światowe bezpieczeństwo żywnościowe. W światowej strukturze spożycia dominuje białko pochodzenia roślinnego, a podstawowym źródłem białka roślinnego są zboża - wśród nich pszenica. W artykule założono, że głównym źródłem dla rosnącego popytu na białko pozostaną dotychczasowe jego źródła, ponieważ czynnikami decydującymi o wykorzystaniu danego surowca jest jego dostępność, koszt i jakość. Z tego powodu w artykule podjęto próbę charakterystyki głównych źródeł białka roślinnego pod względem wielkości produkcji białka z jednostki powierzchni, kosztów produkcji 1 kg białka i jego jakości. Analizę kosztów produkcji poszczególnych źródeł białka wykonano na podstawie danych z gospodarstw z krajów (lub grupy krajów) głównych jego producentów lub eksporterów. Jakość białka roślinnego scharakteryzowano przy użyciu wskaźnika aminokwasu ograniczającego oraz wskaźnika aminokwasu ograniczającego skorygowanego o strawność rzeczywistą białka. Spośród analizowanych źródeł białka największy plon z jednostki powierzchni oraz najmniejsze bezpośrednie koszty produkcji posiada białko z soi. Białko to również charakteryzuje się największą wartością biologiczną uwzględniając wartość wskaźnika aminokwasu ograniczającego skorygowanego o strawność rzeczywistą białka.
Abstract	Protein is one of the basic nutrients necessary to maintain life. Global forecasts show that protein will be the basic macro component limiting global food security. Vegetable protein dominates the global structure of protein consumption. The primary source of vegetable protein are cereals, and among them, wheat. The article assumes that the main source for the growing protein demand will remain its current sources, because the factors determining the use of a given raw material are its availability, cost and quality. Therefore, the article attempts to characterize the main sources of vegetable protein in terms of protein production per unit area, production costs of 1 kg protein and their quality. The analysis of production costs of individual protein sources was made on the basis of data from farms belonging to the countries (or groups of countries) of its main producers or exporters. The quality of the analyzed proteins was characterized using: Chemical Score (SC) and Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS). From among the protein sources which were analyzed, the highest yield per unit area and the lowest direct production costs are found in soy protein. This protein is also characterized by the highest biological value considering the value of PDCAAS.

Tytuł	USE OF ICT SERVICES AT FOOD PROCESSING ENTERPRISES AND THE INFORMATION SOCIETY DEVELOPMENT
Title
Słowa kluczowe	food processing, ICT, ICT services, information society
Key words
Abstrakt	The aim of the article is to analyse the scale of use and to assess the services related to modern information and communication technologies at food processing enterprises and to identify the dependencies between the obtained indices and the features characterising the entities surveyed. The grounds for considerations are findings of the surveys with 201 managers of enterprises of this sector, differentiated in terms of size. The analysis comprised the three areas of ICT services: telecommunications services, services related to software and consultancy in the IT area, and information-related services. The results indicate a wide scope of the use of ICT services – telecommunication services are used by all the entities surveyed, those related to software and consultancy – by three quarters, while information-related services – by almost 60%. In case of all entities there are noted growing outlays on their application, justified, on the one side, by the demand, and, on the other side, by high appraisals of their quality and up-to-datedness (more than 70% of indications) as well as their impact on competitiveness of the entities using them (percentages at the level of more than 60%). It must be said that there occur quite big differences in the indices obtained, due to the features of the enterprises in question. Most often statistically significant dependencies appear in case of information-related services – they are determined by the size of enterprises and the origin of their capital. In case of the services related to software and IT consultancy, the said dependencies also concern the enterprises’ size and, additionally, the range of their activities. Definitely most seldom the statistically significant dependencies occur in case of telecommunication services.

Słowa kluczowe	przyjazd, turystyka, Polska, perspektywy
Key words	arrival, tourism, Poland, perspective
Abstrakt	Turyści zagraniczni bardzo chętnie wybierają Polskę jako cel swojej podróży. Celem artykułu jest zaprezentowanie charakterystyki przyjazdów turystów zagranicznych do Polski z uwzględnieniem ich wydatków. Wykorzystując dane pochodzące z Ministerstwa Sportu i Turystyki, Głównego Urzędu Statystycznego oraz Narodowego Banku Polskiego przedstawiono liczbę i cele przyjazdów, długość pobytu oraz wykorzystywaną bazę noclegową. W dalszej części opracowania przedstawiono zróżnicowanie wydatków turystów zagranicznych w Polsce z uwzględnieniem przeciętnych wydatków na osobę oraz na dzień pobytu. Zaprezentowano również analizę SWOT, która określa siły i słabości turystyki przyjazdowej oraz szanse i zagrożenia związane z jej rozwojem. Z przeprowadzonej analizy wynika, że przyjazdy turystów zagranicznych wzrosły w 2017 roku o 14,1% w porównaniu do roku 2014. Największe wydatki na osobę wśród turystów zagranicznych odnotowano w przypadku turystów z krajów zamorskich, Skandynawii oraz Niemiec. Najmniej zaś wydali turyści zagraniczni z Czeskiej Republiki, Słowacji, czy Białorusi. W ramach przedstawionej analizy SWOT można stwierdzić, iż szanse rozwoju turystyki przyjazdowej do Polski opierają się głównie na takich czynnikach jak m.in.: położenie, różnorodność, coraz wyższa jakość usług, pozytywne wrażenia wracających z Polski, czy wykorzystanie marek miast (Warszawa, Kraków, Wrocław, Gdańsk).
Abstract	Foreign tourists are eager to choose Poland as their destination. The aim of the article is to present the characteristics of arrivals of foreign tourists to Poland, including their expenses. Using the data from the Ministry of Sport and Tourism, the Central Statistical Office and the National Bank of Poland, the number and purposes of arrivals, length of stay and the accommodation base used were presented. The further part of the study presents the diversification of expenses of foreign tourists in Poland, taking into account the average expenditure per person and per day of stay. A SWOT analysis was also presented, which defines the strength and weakness of inbound tourism as well as the opportunities and threats associated with its development. The analysis shows that arrivals of foreign tourists increased in 2017 by 14.1% compared to 2014. The highest expenditure per person among foreign tourists was recorded in the case of tourists from overseas countries, Scandinavia and Germany. Foreign tourists from the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Belarus issued the least. As part of the SWOT analysis presented, it can be stated that the chances of developing incoming tourism to Poland are mainly based on such factors as: location, diversity, increasingly higher quality of services, positive impressions coming back from Poland, or the use of city brands (Warsaw, Krakow, Wrocław, Gdańsk).

Title
Słowa kluczowe	local development, rural areas, local development policy, resident needs, investment needs
Key words
Abstrakt	One of the main objectives of both local and regional development is to increase the level of satisfaction of the needs and preferences of residents, which implies an increase in the quality of life in a particular area. Therefore, it is important to define strategic directions and priorities of activities which are of key importance from the point of view of satisfying the needs of the communes’ residents. Therefore, the aim of this study was to identify and analyse priority directions of expenditure in selected rural communes of the Lubelskie voivodeship in the opinion of their residents, as compared with urban and urban-rural communes. In order to achieve the research objective, a survey was conducted among the residents of selected communes of the Lubelskie voivodeship. The survey showed that according to respondents from rural communes, the priority directions of expenditure included roads and pavements with street lighting, healthcare, tourism, recreational and sports infrastructure, as well as support for the development of investment areas. Investment needs related to social infrastructure, social welfare and pro-environmental activities were also of relative importance. Respondents from rural communes more often indicated the majority of the above investment needs than respondents from urban-rural and urban communes (except for recreational infrastructure and pro-environmental measures, tourist trails in urban-rural communes and sports and healthcare infrastructure in urban communes).

Tytuł	TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE AQUACULTURE IN POLAND
Title
Słowa kluczowe	aquaculture, adaptation, sustainability
Key words
Abstrakt	In the late 1980s, inland aquaculture in Poland produced about 20 and 4 thousand tonnes of carp and trout, respectively. In 2016, the total volume of the sector’s production increased to over 35 thousand tonnes, including 18 and 16 thousand tonnes of the two species and above 1 thousand tonnes of another fish. This constitutes 94% of total catches of inland fish and about 15% including sea fishing. Globally, roughly 50% of seafood supply is produced by aquaculture, and farmed fish production exceeds that of farmed beef. The EU’s Blue Growth Strategy identifies aquaculture as a sector which could boost economic growth across Europe. The key challenges in the Polish aquaculture sector is significant production growth to 49 thousand tonnes by 2020 and increasing its competitiveness by using resources more effectively, supporting the market by building distribution chains, improving the quality of products and marketing, as well as increasing contribution to environmental protection.

Tytuł	THE GREY WATERFOOTPRINT OF CATTLE GRAZING: A CASE OF STUDY FOR ITALY
Title
Słowa kluczowe	grey water footprint, cattle grazing, microbial contaminant, karst aquifer, southern Apennines, Italy
Key words
Abstrakt	Water footprint accounting has contributed to show that livestock production, and dairy production in particular, have a non-negligible impact in terms of freshwater appropriation (Palhares and Mezzopane, 2015). In this line of research, Allocca et al (2018) have contributed to the scientific debate pointing out that livestock grazing can have a substantial effect in terms of the environment-related grey water footprint (GWFenv) originating from microbial contamination. However, cattle grazing can be a source of contamination also for chemical parameters, precisely nitrate, nitrite and ammonium. Albeit the microbial impact of cattle grazing has been documented by Allocca et al. (2018), they did not take into account possible consequences of the grazing activity in terms of chemical contamination, namely nitrates. This aspect is worth to be examined, since nitrates are important parameters to be evaluated when establishing guidelines for protecting aquatic life and/or ambient water quality for recreation use.

Słowa kluczowe	quality of life, class typology, TOPSIS, farmers’ households
Key words
Abstrakt	The aim of the research was a multidimensional assessment of the quality of life in farmers’ households along with its synthetic measure and a typology of household classes, rendered by the measure. The 2015 data on 730 farmers’ households were used to analyse their quality of life in nine dimensions: material living conditions, employment, health, education, leisure and social relations, economic and physical security, civic participation, environmental quality, and the subjective assessment of well-being. Due to concomitance of features measured on metric and non-metric scales, generalized distance measure (GDM) was applied as part of the TOPSIS method to determine the distance of objects from the model values. The study drew on microdata from the Social Diagnosis survey conducted in 2015 by the Council for Social Monitoring, and employed clusterSim R-package for calculations.

Key words
Abstrakt	Within the framework of implementation of overarching national tasks, special attention is paid to the food production and the matter of keeping up with the consumer demand for quality food, which is of national significance. The poultry industry is able to make its fairly considerable contribution into solving the problems of the consumer demand for valuable healthy food products; and to create conditions for the national food security owing to this industry economic growth based on its production potential development and strengthening. The domestic and foreign practice clearly demonstrates that it is possible to provide the population with quality food within a relatively short term, primarily due to the increase of egg and poultry meat production. The poultry industry is not only the most dynamic and fast-growing branch of the livestock farming, but also it has the most intensive production methods. The aim of this article is to determine the influence and the role of the poultry industry on providing the population with food supplies in present-day conditions in the world.

Tytuł	ECONOMIC PERSPECTIVE OF SHORT SUPPLY CHAINS
Title
Słowa kluczowe	short food supply chain, supply chain management, sustainable development
Key words
Abstrakt	Within the framework of the paper, the author introduces issues connected to short food supply chains. There are many different forms of short food supply chains (SFSC), but they share a common characteristic of reduced numbers of intermediaries between the farmer or food producer, and the consumer. The growing interest in SFSCs is shown in the paper – this reflects mainly the consumer demand for quality and traceability, given the alarming health crises in food markets. From a customers’ point of view, SFSCs transfer more complete information about the origin of the food and, for producers, SFSCs retain a higher share of added value. The overview on the impact of short supply chains is provided in the paper. The results of the analysis show that the supply chain may have some beneficial economic effects. It is noticed that the SFSCs have potential to increase farm value added (profit allocation), promote sustainable farming systems, diversify production and contribute to local economic development.

Title
Słowa kluczowe	communication, health care, patients, medical personnel, management
Key words
Abstrakt	A health care is characterised of creating an individual, specific relation between representatives of health care units and patients, which means that not only medical staff professionalism but also an empathetic attitude towards patients are important questions. Literature regarding the issue of communication with patients is growing, there are as well workshops in an effective communication, nevertheless the topic is still of minor importance. Meanwhile, relations between medical personnel and patients may put a major impact on the quality of health care as well as patients satisfaction with medical services, what is important from a management point of view. A proper way of patients’ treatment by medical personnel may result not only in better attitude towards therapy, but also it may influence a more efficient management of health care facilities, as patient satisfied with medical services may recommend an organisation, which may have a positive impact on an institution’s image, allowing a manager to focus on more important aspects of an institution management. For the above reasons it is important to get to know medical personnel’s attitude to developing as well as improving communication skills in order to provide a holistic patients care, what can significantly influence a health care units management. Medical staff communication skills are important not only from a treatment perspective, but they can also be significant from the perspective of health care organisations management. The study material was gathered in the first quarter of 2014. In the final analysis questionnaires from 113 representatives of various medical professions were taken into consideration. The study results show that in the process of medical professionals education there is only a little attention paid to acquiring communication skills regarding communication between a patient and medical personnel. Also, the hypothesis according to which medical personnel is satisfied with communication with patients was confirmed. Furthermore, medical staff agree in stating that they care for a proper communication with patients. Conclusions coming from the study results may define a specific way of health care units management, which should comprise, among others, financial resources for trainings in medical personnel soft skills improvement.

Słowa kluczowe	BSE, FMD, produkty zwierzęce, restrykcje handlowe, gospodarka narodowa, Wielka Brytania
Key words	BSE, FMD, animal products, trade restrictions, national economy, Great Britain
Abstrakt	Głównym celem artykułu jest przedstawienie źródeł sankcji stosowanych w przeszłości na import produktów zwierzęcych z terytorium Wielkiej Brytanii, a także ich wielowymiarowych skutków (ekonomicznych, politycznych, społecznych, zdrowotnych, ekologicznych, regulacyjnych) dla tego państwa. Dokonano zestawienia chronologii zdarzeń związanych z wybuchem epidemii BSE i FMD oraz ukazano szeroki zakres ich konsekwencji. Z przeglądu literatury, analizy oficjalnych dokumentów i danych z bazy Eurostat wynika, że wprowadzenie zakazu handlu wewnętrznego i zagranicznego zwierzętami oraz produktami zwierzęcymi z powodu występowania zakaźnych chorób zwierzęcych odbiło się bardzo niekorzystnie nie tylko na sektorze rolnym, ale pośrednio również na całej brytyjskiej gospodarce oraz jakości życia obywateli. Całkowite straty wywołane BSE i FMD były znaczne, mogły nawet sięgnąć odpowiednio 5,5 mld i 4 mld GBP.
Abstract	The main purpose of this paper is to present the sources of import sanctions imposed in the past on animal products from Great Britain as well as their multidimensional (economic, political, social, health, ecological, regulatory) effects for this country. A chronology of events related to the outbreaks of BSE and FMD was compiled, and broad spectrum of their consequences was discussed. The review of the literature, the analysis of official documents and Eurostat data shows that internal and foreign ban on trade in UK animals and animal products due to contagious animal diseases has had very adverse effects not only on the agricultural sector, but also on the entire British economy and citizens’ quality of life. The extent of total losses caused by BSE and FMD was considerable; they could have reached GBP 5.5 billion and GBP 4 billion respectively.
