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	Female Farmers’ Agricultural Information Needs and Food Production: A Case Study of Imbulpe ds Division in Sri Lanka
Słowa kluczowe	agricultural information, Imbulpe, information needs, Sri Lanka, women farmers
Key words	agricultural information, Imbulpe, information needs, Sri Lanka, women farmers
Abstrakt	The study was conducted to find out female farmers’ agricultural information needs and their impact on food production, in the Imbulpe DS Division in Sri Lanka. Of the female farmers in the area, 238 were taken as the sample for the study from seven selected Grama Niladhari (GN) divisions in the area. Female farmers were selected by using a simple random sampling method from these purposively selected GN divisions. A pre-tested, interviewer-administered questionnaire survey was used as the primary data collection method from March to July 2019. Data analysis was done by using descriptive statistics and chi-square analysis. The result revealed that the majority (62.6%) of respondents were middle aged (40-59 years), married, and belonged to families with 4-5 members. Most respondents (64.3 %) had studied up to junior secondary education level. Their average farm land size is 0.84 acres and they have farming experience of about 15 years. Most of the respondents mentioned that they had obtained higher levels of information needs about improved crop varieties. In addition, female farmers reported that they moderately need information on application of agrochemicals, improved market systems and modern farming technologies. Extension agents and other female farmers act as their major sources of agricultural information and ICT equipment acts as the least important agricultural information source in this area. Moreover, there is a significant positive association between the agricultural information needs and food production. Therefore, providing necessary agricultural information and enhanced utilization of ICT tools for agricultural information sources, and encouraging female farmers to participate in farming societies will lead to enhanced food production in this area.

Title	Outlook of Present Organic Agriculture Policies and Future Needs in Sri Lanka
Słowa kluczowe	conventional agriculture, organic agriculture, organic farming policies, Sri Lanka
Key words	conventional agriculture, organic agriculture, organic farming policies, Sri Lanka
Abstrakt	Many countries are formulating organic agriculture or organic farming policies aimed at sustainable agricultural development. Therefore, the objectives of this study were: to understand the present situation of organic agriculture policies in Sri Lanka and also in other countries where successful organic agriculture is operating; identify problems in the organic agriculture sector; and suggest potential policy measures to be implemented in Sri Lanka in future. The research was conducted in two stages. In the first stage, a thorough literature review was conducted to study the suitable policies available in other countries and also in Sri Lanka at present. In the second stage, two field surveys were carried out using pre-tested questionnaires, from December 2019 to May 2020, in order to gather farmers’ and extension officers’ information related to organic farming policy suggestions. According to the findings of the literature review, organic systems in some countries are more integrated with national strategic plans and visions. Those governments are more involved in new initiatives and farmers are encouraged to go organic through reliable and feasible policies. Although Sri Lanka has a high potential for organic agriculture, at present it is at an initial stage. While most organic products in Sri Lanka go to the export market, a small portion is kept at local markets. Demand for organic products in export as well as domestic markets is increasing. Even though there are seven international food certification agencies operating in the country as external inspection and certification bodies, a limited number of accredited certifications exist for products on the domestic market. Results of the farmers’ survey showed that even if farmers have a significant level of knowledge, few of them practice organic farming due to several existing problems. Moreover, extension officers have also identified similar types of problems that are faced by the farmers related to organic farming. Evaluation of Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) related to organic agriculture in the country helped to identify key problems facing policy-makers when balancing the supply and demand sides of organic products. Also, in developing organic agriculture, an effective linkage and coordination among government and private participants is crucial. Therefore, in Sri Lanka in this context, strategic focus on policy support for organic agriculture is needed. Current organic farming programs need to be revised in order to formulate policies covering all areas related to production, handling, processing, certification, labeling and marketing, in order to bring the benefits of organic agriculture to farmers, marketers and consumers in a fair manner.

Title	Poverty and its Alleviating Strategies among Rural Farming Households in Benue State, Nigeria
Słowa kluczowe	poverty, alleviating strategies, rural, farming household, Nigeria
Key words	poverty, alleviating strategies, rural, farming household, Nigeria
Abstrakt	The study analysed rural farming households’ poverty status and alleviating strategies in Benue State, Nigeria. The specific objectives of the study were to: describes the rural household heads’ socio-economic characteristics; determine the poverty status of the respondents and its determinants; and identify poverty alleviating strategies of the respondents. Data for the study was collected from 420 respondents selected using a multi-stage sampling technique. Data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics, the Foster-Greer-Thorbecke poverty measurement index, and the Binary Logistic regression model. The findings of the study revealed a very high incidence of poverty (70%), having a gap of 0.34, and severity of 0.17. Poverty in the area is positively associated with the age of the household head and household size, while gender, educational level, off-farm activity, membership of a group, farm size, and land ownership are negatively associated with poverty. The common poverty alleviation strategies identified were agricultural wage labour (48.6%), rental services (45.0%), and transportation business (36.7%). Therefore, it was recommended that the government and other stakeholders should initiate sustainable social protection schemes that can assist rural residents in alleviating poverty until their condition improves.

Tytuł	CHANGES IN THE ECONOMIC SIZE AND PRODUCTION DIRECTION IN FARMS AS A RESULT OF INVESTMENTS IN FIXED ASSETS
Title
Słowa kluczowe	investments, farms, economic size, type of farming, farm migrations
Key words
Abstrakt	The research aimed to identify the impact of the implemented projects on the change in the economic size and direction of farms. The research used studies of the literature on the subject and data from 4 803 farms that kept continuous accounting under the FADN system in 2005-2013. The analysed economy was grouped according to the value of investment outlays in funds, economic size, and production type. Research shows that the increase in the level of investment is conducive to increasing the economic strength of farms. However, these investments must be high enough to ensure the appropriate level of difficulty. For the lower average level of questions, smaller languages are less and very small. Moreover, investments favour and accelerate the processing of farms, which may also improve their economic effects. In the analysed group of mixed-type farms, they changed the destination for the cultivation of cereals and the place of milk.

Title
Słowa kluczowe	correlation, Czech Republic, organic agriculture, financial support, organic market
Key words
Abstrakt	In the Czech Republic, and possibly in many other eastern European countries, organic production still has potential for further growth. Over the past three decades, organic farming has become an essential alternative to farming practices. An increase was observed among acreage, the number of farms, and also consumer spending on organic production. After the EU accession, organic farming became part of the agricultural policy related to other than production function and therefore supported by EU finance. The contribution aimed to derive which of the two factors was more important for organic farming expansion - the pull factor (market demand) or the push factor (financial support). Using Pearson's correlation coefficient stronger relationship was observed for financial aid, which was a driving force for the organic agriculture spread in the Czech Republic.

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.

Słowa kluczowe	GMOs, smallholder farmers, awareness for GM crops, Credible seed sources, Agricultural technology
Key words	GMOs, smallholder farmers, awareness for GM crops, Credible seed sources, Agricultural technology
Abstrakt	Genetically Modified (GM) crops are crops modified through genetic engineering to improve their quality. Although safety concerns about genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are still being debated, the food security benefits have led to adoption by many counties. In Nigeria, where most farmers are uneducated and likely unaware of the agricultural technology, the government approved its first biotechnology crop for commercialization in 2018. Level of farmers’ awareness is crucial to acceptance of GM crops, although; this has not been fully explored in the literature. Therefore, this study aimed to assess farmers’ awareness for GM crops and the factors that determine their awareness in Oyo state, Nigeria, using primary data collected in 2018 with the aid of well-structured questionnaires from 242 smallholder farmers. Principal component analysis and Tobit regression model were used for data analysis. Results showed that farmers were aged 43 years with farm size of 3.57 ha, farming experience of 14 years and 11 years of education. Most farmers were male (71.90%), married (67.36%), not members of farmer groups (64.46%) and sourced their seeds from non-credible sources (85.12%). Most farmers (52.07%) had either not heard of or did not know of any benefits/costs of GM crops, hence; were not aware of GM crops. Factors that influenced awareness of GM crops were being a male farmer, years of education and source of seeds. The study concluded that increasing years of education and ensuring use of credible seed sources will increase awareness of the costs and benefits of GM crops among farmers.

The aim of this article was to evaluate the trends and the degreeof changes that have occurred in the number of processing plants and the structure of organic processing industriesin Poland in the years 2004–2017. The analysis covered eight industries of processing organic products.Over thirteen years, there has been a steady increase in the number of organic processing plants, despite thelow amount of organic production and the lack of developed and sustainable forms of cooperation at variouslevels – from the producer to the consumer. The low consumption of organic products (compared to Europeancountries) also shows down and shapes changes that occur in the structure in particular processing sectors.

Tytuł	Zarządzanie majątkiem jednostek gospodarczych o różnym profilu produkcji
Title	MANAGEMENT OF ECONOMIC ASSETS WITH VARIOUS PRODUCTION PROFILES
Słowa kluczowe	ocena zarządzania majątkiem, kierowanie jednostką gospodarczą, aktywa trwałe i obrotowe, profil produkcji.
Key words	assessment of asset management, management of the economic unit, fixed and current assets, production profile.
Abstrakt	Celem niniejszego opracowania jest próba ukazania zakresu zarzadzania majątkiem podmiotów gospodarczych o różnym profilu produkcji. Materiałem badawczym były dane o gospodarstwach charakteryzujących się zróżnicowanym profilem produkcji, które w 2017 roku prowadziły rachunkowość rolną w ramach polskiego FADN. Poszczególne wielkości ukazano w przeliczeniu na jedno gospodarstwo w zł. Skalę zróżnicowania analizowano w podziale na osiem typów rolniczych. Majątek gospodarstwa przedstawiono w podziale na aktywa trwałe i obrotowe. Rozpatrywanym parametrem oceny sprawności zarządzania majątkiem była efektywność wykorzystania zasobów. Najwyższym poziomem produktywności i dochodowości kapitału odznaczały się gospodarstwa drobiarskie i ogrodnicze. Wysokim poziomem produktywności i dochodowości pracy odznaczały się gospodarstwa nastawione na chów krów mlecznych i trzody chlewnej. O jakości zarządzania podmiotu gospodarczego informuje także jego kondycja finansowa. Jej syntetycznym wskaźnikiem jest rentowność kapitału własnego ROE. Wśród analizowanych gospodarstw najwyższą dodatnią rentownością kapitału własnego odznaczały się gospodarstwa drobiarskie. Wielkość wskaźnika ROE wynosiła tutaj 14,74%. Na nieco niższym poziomie kształtował się on w gospodarstwach, gdzie dominującą produkcją był chów krów mlecznych i trzody chlewnej. Dodatnią rentownością odznaczały się jeszcze gospodarstwa ogrodnicze.
Abstract	The aim of this study is to show the scope of asset management of business entities with different production profiles. The research material was data on farms characterized by diversified production profile, which in 2017 conducted agricultural accounting under the Polish FADN. Individual sizes are shown per one household in PLN. The scale of diversification was analyzed by eight types of farming. The property of the holding is presented broken down into non-current and current assets. The efficiency of resource utilization was considered as the parameter of assessing the efficiency of asset management. Poultry and gardening farms were characterized by the highest level of productivity and profitability of capital. Farms with milk cows and pigs were characterized by a high level of productivity and profitability of work. The financial condition of the business entity also informs its financial condition. Its synthetic indicator is the profitability of ROE's equity. Among the analyzed farms, poultry farms showed the highest positive return on equity. The value of ROE was 14.74% here. At a slightly lower level, it was shaped on farms where the dominant production was dairy cows and pigs rearing. Gardening farms also had a positive profitability.

Tytuł	Rynek wołowiny w Rosji w latach 1990-2017 i w 2018 r.
Title	Beef Market in Russia in the years 1990-2017 and in 2018
Słowa kluczowe	Rosja, rynek wołowiny, samowystarczalność
Key words	Russia, beef market, self-sufficiency
Abstrakt	Celem analizy jest zidentyfikowanie kluczowych zmian, jakie nastąpiły na rosyjskim rynku wołowiny w latach 1990-2017. Badaniem objęto wszystkie elementy rynku. Podstawę oceny stanowiły dane pochodzące z rosyjskich Roczników Statystycznych oraz z publikacji amerykańskich Foreign Agricultural Service USDA. Do pomiaru dynamiki wykorzystano indeksy o stałej i zmiennej podstawie. Analiza pozwoliła na stwierdzenie, że w badanym okresie wszystkie elementy rynku uległy redukcji. Zmniejszyło się pogłowie i produkcja wołowiny, a także jej import oraz spożycie. Nastąpiło to pomimo wsparcia ze strony państwa. Wsparcie (subsydia) są relatywnie małe w porównaniu ze wsparciem chowu trzody czy drobiu. Pozwala ono jednak na tworzenie podstaw chowu bydła mięsnego i jego rozwoju w dłuższej perspektywie.
Abstract	The aim of the analysis is to identify the key changes that occurred on the Russian beef market in the years 1990-2017. The research covered all elements of the market. The basis for the assessment data were taken from the Russian Statistical Yearbooks and from the US Foreign Agricultural Service USDA. Dynamics were indexed on fixed and variable bases. The analysis allows to conclude that all elements of the market were reduced during the period under consideration. The beef population and production as well as its imports and consumption decreased. This happened despite the support from the state. This support (subsidies) is relatively small compared to the support of pig or poultry farming. However, it allowed to create the basis of beef cattle breeding and its development in the long term.

Title	Selected Aspects of the Piglet Market in Poland, Germany and Denmark
Słowa kluczowe	rynek prosiąt, import, ceny, Polska, Niemcy, Dania
Key words	piglet market, import, prices, Poland, Germany, Denmark
Abstrakt	Celem artykułu jest analiza wybranych aspektów rynku prosiąt w Polsce, Niemczech i Danii. Kraje te wyodrębniono na podstawie wielkości importu i eksportu żywej trzody na wspólnotowym rynku. Szeroko pojęty rynek prosiąt jest stosunkowo słabo rozpoznany, choć prosięta stanowią ważną fazę produkcji trzody. Trudność analizy tego rynku polega głównie na braku odpowiedniej statystyki. W niniejszym opracowaniu o produkcji prosiąt i podstawowych jej cechach (rozproszenie) wnioskowano na podstawie danych dotyczących natężenia chowu loch w gospodarstwach. Chów loch nie odzwierciedla jednak krajowej podaży prosiąt, która korygowana jest poprzez obroty handlu zagranicznego. Wyrazem dostosowania popytu do podaży są ceny.
Abstract	The aim of the article is to analyze selected aspects of the piglet market in Poland, Germany and Denmark. These countries were distinguished on the basis of the volume of imports and exports of live pigs on the Community market. The broadly understood piglet market is relatively poorly recognized, although piglets are an important phase of pig production. The difficulty of analyzing this market is mainly due to the lack of appropriate statistics. Piglet production and its basic characteristics (dispersion) were inferred on the basis of data on sow farming in farms. However, sow farming does not reflect domestic piglet supply, which is adjusted by foreign trade turnover. Prices are an expression of adjusting demand to supply.

Tytuł	Cena a gotowość do zapłaty za określone produkty ekologiczne na przykładzie mieszkańców województwa lubuskiego
Title	Price and readiness to pay for specific ecological products on the example of the inhabitants of the Lubuskie Voivodeship
Słowa kluczowe	produkt ekologiczny, cena, dochody i wydatki gospodarstw domowych, gotowość do zapłaty
Key words	green products, price, household income and expenditure of households, readiness to pay
Abstrakt	Rozwój rynku żywności ekologicznej nastąpił w wyniku m.in. zwiększającej się świadomości konsumentów na temat zdrowego odżywiania, troski o swoich najbliższych, a także rozprzestrzeniania się informacji o przekroczeniach dotyczących poziomu pestycydów w żywności, norm dioksyn w mięsie i wielu innych toksycznych związków chemicznych. Na uwagę zasługuje również zwiększająca się dostępność żywności ekologicznej. Coraz większa liczba sklepów ma w swojej ofercie asortymentowej żywność pochodzącą z upraw i hodowli ekologicznych, co w efekcie wpływa na zwiększenie popytu na ten rodzaj żywności. Zachowania konsumenta dotyczące produktów ekologicznych są determinowane nie tylko zwiększającą się świadomością ekologiczną, ale zależą od wielu czynników, wśród których istotną rolę odgrywają czynniki ekonomiczne. Poznanie uwarunkowań zakupu ekoproduktów ma kluczowe znaczenie w rozwoju rynku żywności ekologicznej. Celem niniejszego opracowania jest, po pierwsze, zidentyfikowanie czynników determinujących zachowania konsumentów na rynku produktów ekologicznych, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem ekonomicznych. Po drugie, ustalenie zależności między poziomem przeciętnego miesięcznego dochodu na osobę a liczbą osób w gospodarstwie domowym. Niewątpliwie wyższe ceny produktów ekologicznych w porównaniu z ich odpowiednikami konwencjonalnymi oraz niskie dochody konsumentów ograniczają ich nabywanie. Artykuł zawiera wyniki przeprowadzonego badania ankietowego wśród respondentów w województwie lubuskim. Wyniki badania wskazują, że gotowość do zapłaty wyższej ceny wynika nie tylko z dostrzegalnej jakości produktów, walorów smakowych, składu produktu, stylu życia, czy też walorów zapachowych, ale także z dbałości o stan środowiska naturalnego oraz zdrowie swoje i swoich najbliższych.
Abstract	The development of the organic food market has resulted from, among others, an increasing consumer awareness of healthy eating, caring for their loved ones, as well as the spread of information on exceedances regarding the level of pesticides in food, standards of dioxins in meat and many other toxic chemicals. Noteworthy is also the increasing availability of organic food. An increasing number of stores have in their range of products food from organic farming, which in effect affects the increase in demand for this type of food. Consumer behaviour regarding organic products is determined not only by increasing ecological awareness, but depends on many factors, among which economic factors play an important role. Understanding the conditions of purchasing ecoproducts is crucial in the development of the organic food market. The aim of this study is, fi rstly, to identify the factors determining consumer behaviour on the market of organic products, with particular emphasis on economic factors. Secondly, establishing the relationship between the level of average monthly income per person and the number of people in the household. Undoubtedly, higher prices of organic products compared to their conventional counterparts and low income of consumers limit their purchase. The article contains the results of a survey carried out among respondents in the Lubuskie Voivodeship. The results of the study show that the higher willingness to pay results not only from the perceived quality of products, taste values, product composition, lifestyle, or fragrance values, but also from care for the natural environment and the health of both themselves and their relatives.

Tytuł	Obecne użytkowanie dawnych gatunków pszenic
Title	Current Use of Ancient Wheats
Słowa kluczowe	samopsza, płaskurka, uprawa
Key words	einkorn, emmer, cultivation
Abstrakt	Spośród uprawianych przez człowieka roślin, ze względów ekonomicznych i rolniczych zboża są najważniejszą grupą roślin uprawnych. Zboża, a zwłaszcza wyrabiany z nich chleb, są głównym i podstawowym produktem spożywczym na świecie. Pradawne gatunki oplewionych pszenic samopszy (Triticum monococcum) i płaskurki (Triticum dicoccum), od momentu ich udomowienia, stanowiły przez tysiąclecia podstawę diety człowieka. Było tak do momentu upowszechnienia się pszenicy zwyczajnej. W niektórych regionach świata są uprawiane do dzisiaj, a ze względu na rosnącą popularność zdrowej żywności rośnie ponowne zainteresowanie tymi dawnymi zbożami. Wiąże się to z dostosowaniem technik ich uprawy do warunków współczesnego rolnictwa konwencjonalnego i ekologicznego. W niniejszym artykule zostały omówione wyniki badań nad agrotechniką ekologicznej uprawy dawnych gatunków pszenic: samopszy i płaskurki. Pszenice oplewione są odporne na różne czynniki stresu biotycznego i abiotycznego i mogą być uprawiane w słabych warunkach glebowych, co zapewnia rolnikowi przewagę nad innymi uprawami. Daje to również producentom możliwość zagospodarowania niewykorzystanych nisz na rynku.
Abstract	Within plants grown by human being, in economical and agronomical point of view, cereals are the most important group of crops. Cereals, especially bread made of them, are major staple food in the world. For thousands years, from the moment of their domestication, ancient species of hulled wheats, like einkorn (Triticum monococcum) and emmer (Triticum dicoccum), were basic part of people diet. It was so until modern wheats (Triticum aestivum) became popular. In some world regions ancient wheats are cultivated nowadays. Adapting their farming techniques to modern agriculture and organic farming is related with increasing popularity of healthy eating. Results of organic farming techniques and cultivation research of einkorn and emmer are being presented in this article. Hulled wheats are tolerant to various biotic as well as abiotic stress conditions and can be grown in poor soil condition providing the farmer an advantage to take the crop. This also opens opportunities for manufacturers to seek the untapped market.

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.
