Title	Determinants of Use of Climate Change Adaptation Practices by Rice Farmers in Kebbi State, North-West Nigeria
Słowa kluczowe	climate change, smallholder farmers, Nigeria, climate adaptation, adoption, livelihoods
Key words	climate change, smallholder farmers, Nigeria, climate adaptation, adoption, livelihoods
Abstrakt	Rice productivity and sustainability are threatened by both biotic and abiotic stresses, the effects of which can be further aggravated by dramatic changes in global climate. The most viable option for rice farmers is to use climate change adaptation practices. This study therefore investigated the determinants of use of climate change adaptation practices among rice farmers in Kebbi State, North-West, Nigeria. Data were collected from a sample of 279 farmers selected using a multistage sampling procedure. The results of the data analysis revealed that the farmers used improved rice varieties, intercropping, recommended rates of fertilizers and other chemicals as climate change adaptation practices among others. Education, climate change awareness, and extension contact significantly influenced the use of climate change adaptation practices among the farmers. Other determinants of use of climate change adaptation practices among the farmers were years of cooperative membership, affordability, farming experience, weather information and farm size. It was concluded that use of climate change adaptation practices was determined by socioeconomic, institutional and technological characteristics. It is recommended among others that government policy should be geared towards encouraging the farmers especially the younger ones to acquire more formal education, larger farmlands and more climate change awareness.

Title	Participatory Development of Demand-Driven Curriculum for Career-Ready E-Extension Services in Nigeria
Słowa kluczowe	participatory curriculum, career- ready, e- extension services, stakeholders, Nigeria
Key words	participatory curriculum, career- ready, e- extension services, stakeholders, Nigeria
Abstrakt	This paper described and contextualized participatory development of demand-driven curriculum for career-ready e-extension services in Nigeria as introduced by the Sasakawa Africa Fund for Extension Education. The stages of participatory development were participatory need assessment, participatory stakeholders’ workshop and validation among 124 stakeholders selected as key informants in relation to agricultural extension training, delivery, end users and policy makers. The stakeholders were grouped as follows: community leaders and policy makers; extension agencies / organisations / institutions / employers; farmers; input suppliers / marketers / agro-based traders / other value actors; and potential candidate groups. Stakeholder meetings were held separately with different groups three times, and then a combined meeting took place. The aggregated major decisions/consensus were subjected to content analysis using ATLAS.ti. The validation process included reading of each agreed decision to all participants, then participants indicated their agreement or otherwise, which led to either rejection or acceptance of the decision. This paper concludes that participatory curriculum development has enhanced the stakeholders to identify areas of demand-driven training in response to community needs. The stakeholders preferred more online than face-to-face training. The major perceived advantages of e-extension were reduced risk, time and cost effectiveness while infrastructural and human challenges were the perceived challenges that could possibly hinder the smooth running of e extension.

Title	Consumers’ Awareness on Organic Food: Case of Urban Sri Lanka
Słowa kluczowe	consumers’ awareness, organic food, regression analysis, urban consumer, Sri Lanka
Key words	consumers’ awareness, organic food, regression analysis, urban consumer, Sri Lanka
Abstrakt	The organic food market is rapidly expanding all over the world with the recent rise of concern in food safety and environmental protection. Thus, examining information about consumers’ awareness on organic food is one of the inspiring areas for producers and marketers to capture a greater market share successfully. Therefore, this study aimed at analyzing the consumer awareness towards organic food products while addressing socio-demographic factors affecting consumer awareness on organic food, knowledge of consumers about organic food, and their purchasing pattern. A sample of 600 consumers was selected from the main cities of six urban districts in Sri Lanka for the study. Data were collected via a consumer survey using a pre-tested questionnaire, from November 2018 to May 2019. The data analysis was carried out using frequencies, percentages, and multiple linear regression analysis. According to the results, the majority of the respondents were married females. The results revealed that Sri Lankan consumers have a better awareness on organic food. The results of the regression analysis highlighted that the consumers’ awareness is significantly affected by factors such as gender, marital status, education, and monthly income. Although most respondents have a good level of awareness on organic food, their buying trend is at a lower level. The findings of the study play an important role in promoting the organic food market and are essential for food marketing planners, researchers, and policymakers to enhance the organic food industry in the country in the future.

Key words	fertilizers, plant protection products, European Union, Ward method
Abstrakt	Aktualnie duże znaczenie w agrobiznesie mają przemysłowe środki produkcji rolnej, w tym zwłaszcza nawozy mineralne oraz chemiczne środki ochrony roślin. W artykule próbowano przedstawić i porównać zmiany wartości zużytych nawozów i środków ochrony roślin w krajach Unii Europejskiej w latach 2010-2018. Badano zmiany wartości zużytych nawozów i środków ochrony roślin w przeliczeniu na 1 ha UR oraz zmiany udziału omawianych środków produkcji w zużyciu pośrednim. Stwierdzono, że wartość zużytych nawozów i środków ochrony roślin w przeliczeniu na 1 ha UR średnio w UE zwiększyła się. Wzrósł ich również udział w zużyciu pośrednim. W wyniku grupowania obiektów metodą Warda otrzymano 4 skupienia krajów, które różniły się pomiędzy sobą pod względem zaproponowanych cech, natomiast kraje, które tworzyły dane skupienie charakteryzowały się zbliżonymi wartościami zmiennych. Krajami w których zaobserwowano zarówno wyraźny wzrost wartości zużytych nawozów i środków ochrony roślin w przeliczeniu na jednostkę powierzchni jak również zdecydowane zwiększenie ich wartości w zużyciu pośrednim były: Litwa, Bułgaria i Estonia. Spadek popytu na omawiane środki produkcji wystąpił natomiast w Belgii, Chorwacji, Słowenii, Danii, Finlandii oraz w Portugalii.
Abstract	Currently, agricultural means of production are of great importance in agribusiness, in particular mineral fertilizers and chemical plant protection products. The article attempts to present and compare changes in the value of used fertilizers and plant protection products in European Union countries in 2010-2018. Changes in the value of used fertilizers and plant protection products per 1 ha of UAA and changes in the share of these means of production in intermediate consumption were examined. It was found that the value of used fertilizers and plant protection products per 1 ha of UAA increased on average in the EU. Their share in intermediate consumption also increased. As a result of grouping objects using the Ward method, 4 clusters of countries were obtained, which differed in terms of the proposed features, while the countries that created the given cluster were characterized by similar values of variables. The countries where both a clear increase in the value of used fertilizers and plant protection products per unit area as well as a significant increase in their value in intermediate consumption were observed: Lithuania, Bulgaria and Estonia. However, a decline in demand for the discussed means of production occurred in Belgium, Croatia, Slovenia, Denmark, Finland and Portugal.

Tytuł	OVERINVESTMENT IN POLISH AGRICULTURE
Title
Słowa kluczowe	overinvestment, polish agriculture, fadn
Key words
Abstrakt	The purpose of this paper was to assess the level of overinvestment in Polish farms grouped by economicsize. As the volume of investments clearly continues to grow, the authors noticed the need to address thatproblem. Using FADN data, they developed their own method for measuring overinvestment, and identifiedits size and extent. Indeed, overinvestment proves to be widespread in Polish agriculture. The reasons probablyinclude inadequate subsidies allocated under European Union aid schemes, and improper farm managementpractices. In the future, this could give rise to dysfunctions, ultimately resulting in farm bankruptcies.

Title
Słowa kluczowe	anti-crisis management, agricultural enterprise, quality, products, fuzzy logic, fuzzy modelling
Key words
Abstrakt	The article systematizes the different views of scientists in relation to the anti-crisis management of enterprisesand emphasizes the importance of its use in enterprises. There was noted the necessity to introducethe perspective directions of economic activity of the enterprise, forming its image, ensuring competitiveness,profitability, and development. In order to make effective management decisions under uncertaindynamic environment, it is suggested to use fuzzy modelling for the prevention of the crisis occurrence.In order to present the possibility of using such an approach in the practical activity of agricultural enterprises,in particular which are engaged in dairy farming, we proposed an informational and logical modelfor determining the forecast average price of milk, taking into account the indicators of its quality, thatis based on the theory of fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic. In the context of anti-crisis management, there wassubstantiated the possibility of using the proposed model, as a basic one, in any agricultural enterprise inorder to improve its activities.

Title	Economic Aspects of Growing Soybean and Sweet Lupine in Poland
Słowa kluczowe	soja, łubin słodki, koszty uprawy, efektywność ekonomiczna
Key words	soybean, sweet lupine, costs of growing, economic efficiency
Abstrakt	Soja i łubin należą do roślin bobowatych, a ich nasiona są cennym źródłem białka. W związku z tym, ze względu na sukcesywnie rosnącą, w Polsce i innych krajach Unii Europejskiej, produkcję zwierzęcą propagowane jest zwiększanie powierzchni uprawy tych roślin, zwłaszcza w kontekście bezpieczeństwa żywnościowego. Jednak, by rolnicy chętnie prowadzili ich uprawę powinna być ona opłacalna. Celem badań była ocena efektywności ekonomicznej uprawy soi i łubinu słodkiego w gospodarstwach indywidualnych w Polsce. Dane dotyczące produkcji, kosztów bezpośrednich i nakładów związanych z uprawą soi i łubinu zebrano w 2015 i 2017 roku w systemie AGROKOSZTY. Dane o kosztach pośrednich pochodziły z Polskiego FADN. W opracowaniu wykorzystano głównie pionową analizę porównawczą. Wykazano, że w 2017 roku uprawa obu rozpatrywanych gatunków generowała wyższe dochody niż w 2015 roku. Jednakże uprawa łubinu słodkiego była opłacalna w 2015 i w 2017 roku, podczas gdy uprawa soi jedynie w 2017 roku.
Abstract	Soybean and lupine belong to legumes and their seeds are a valuable source of vegetable protein. Therefore, due to successively growing animal production, in Poland and other countries of the European Union, it is promoted to increase the area of cultivation of these plants, especially in the context of food security. However, if farmers should grow them, if has to be profitable. The aim of the study was to assess of economic effectiveness from cultivation of soybean and sweet lupin in individual farms in Poland. Data on production, direct costs and expenditure on growing soybean and lupine were collected in 2015 and 2017 in the AGROKOSZTY system. Data on indirect costs came from the Polish FADN. The study mainly uses vertical comparative analysis. It was shown, that in 2017 the cultivation of both cultivars generated a higher income than in 2015. However, sweet lupine cultivation was profitable in 2015 and in 2017, while soybean only in 2017.

Słowa kluczowe	produkcja wołowiny, czynniki produkcji, efektywność, dopłaty
Key words	beef production, factors of production, efficiency, subsidies
Abstrakt	Celem badań była ocena wykorzystania czynników produkcji w gospodarstwach specjalizujących się w chowie bydła rzeźnego w sześciu krajach, które są największymi producentami wołowiny w UE-15 (we Francji, Niemczech, Włoszech, Wielkiej Brytanii, Hiszpanii i Irlandii) i w dwóch krajach zaliczanych do UE-N13 (w Polsce i Rumunii). W badaniach wykorzystano dane FADN EU średnie w latach 2010-2015. Zbadano produktywność i dochodowość czynników wytwórczych, sprawność ekonomiczną produkcji oraz uzależnienie gospodarstw od dopłat. Wyniki wskazują na przewagę producentów wołowiny we Włoszech, Hiszpanii, Rumunii i w Polsce. W gospodarstwach we Francji, Niemczech, Wielkiej Brytanii i Irlandii koszty były wyższe od wartości produkcji, w efekcie dochód był ujemny. Stratę pokryły dopłaty, miały też wpływ na wysokość dochodu, jego poziom nie wynikał jednak z wysokiej efektywności produkcji.
Abstract	The aim of the study was to assess the use of production factors in farms specializing in production of cattle for fattening in six countries, which are the biggest producers of beef in the EU-15 (in France, Germany, Italy, Great Britain, Spain and Ireland) and in two countries included in the EU N13 (in Poland and Romania). The research used FADN EU average data in 2010-2015. The productivity and profitability of production factors, the economic efficiency of production and the dependence of farms on subsidies were examined. The results indicate an advantage of beef producers in Italy, Spain, Romania and Poland. In farms in France, Germany, Great Britain and Ireland, the costs were higher than the value production, as a result the income was a negative value. The loss was covered by subsidies, which also influenced the amount of income, but its level did not result from high production efficiency.

Na podstawie badań przeprowadzonych w roku 2017 można stwierdzić, że pojęcie GMO znane było zdecydowanej większości ankietowanych rolników (92%), którzy jednocześnie potrafili podjąć próbę wyjaśnienia, co oznacza ten skrót. Wyższym poziomem wiedzy na ten temat wykazywali się rolnicy młodsi, ze średnim i wyższym poziomem wykształcenia. Najczęściej wiedza na temat GMO pochodziła z mediów, rzadziej z prasy specjalistycznej. Jednak większość badanych (ponad 70%) uznała, że jest ona niewystarczająca. Rolnicy nie byli pozytywnie nastawieni do wprowadzania tego rodzaju upraw i żywności (73,9% mężczyzn i 57,1% kobiet). Tylko nieznaczny odsetek ankietowanych (9,2% mężczyzn) przyznał się do uprawiania roślin GM, natomiast większy procent badanych deklarował stosowanie pasz GM w żywieniu zwierząt. Prawie 1/3 respondentów uważała, że z upraw roślin GM nie płyną żadne korzyści, pozostali wskazali m.in. na większą wydajność takich upraw i zmniejszenie ilości stosowanych środków ochrony roślin. Taki sam odsetek badanych uważał, że uprawy GM nie są zagrożeniem dla środowiska. Ponad 80% rolników było otwartych na szkolenia i kursy, które miałyby uzupełnić ich wiedzę na temat inżynierii genetycznej.
Abstract	The objective of the research study was to analyse the knowledge the farmers in the Opole province in Poland have on genetically modified crops and to evaluate their approaches to this issue. The vast majority of the farmers surveyed know the “genetically modified organism” term (92%) and the meaning of the ‘GMO’ acronym, although the knowledge of the younger farmers with secondary and tertiary education was at a higher level. Most often, the farmers acquire their knowledge from media and, less often, from trade journals. Even so, the majority of the surveyed (more than 70%) find their knowledge to be insufficient. The majority of the farmers polled (73,9% men i 57,1% women) are not open to such types of crops and food. Of the farmers surveyed, only a small percentage (9,2% men) admits to growing GM crops and a higher percentage (28,7% men and 20,8% women) admits to feed animals with GM fodders. Almost 1/3 of the survey participants think that the cultivation of GM crops does not confer any benefits while the rest of the surveyed point out to such advantages as, inter alia, higher yields and reducing the amounts of plant health products used. The same percentage of the polled thinks that GM crops do not pose any risk to the environment. The majority of the farmers surveyed (more than 80%) are open to training and courses in order to expand their knowledge of genetic engineering.
