Abstrakt	Procesy zachodzące w środowisku przyrodniczym pod wpływem realizacji industrialnych koncepcji rozwoju rolnictwa wywołały istotną zmianę modelu produkcji i konsumpcji i zwrócenie się w większym stopniu w stronę rolnictwa zrównoważonego, opartego na zgodnym połączeniu celów społecznych, środowiskowych i ekonomicznych. Zachowując właściwe proporcje między tymi podsystemami, dąży się do zapewniania równowagi międzypokoleniowej i wewnątrzpokoleniowej. Realizacji tych zasad służy m.in. rozwój rolnictwa ekologicznego. Skoncentrowanie się na żywności ekologicznej wydaje się szczególnie istotne wobec rosnącej świadomości konsumentów, dążeniu ich do jak najlepszego zaspokojenia swoich potrzeb poprzez dobór produktów o odpowiednich parametrach odżywczych i zdrowotnych. Produkt ekologiczny stanowi szansę na poprawę konkurencyjności w rolnictwie, zwłaszcza europejskim, umożliwiając racjonalne gospodarowanie zasobami poprzez wdrażanie założeń ekonomii zrównoważonego rozwoju. W artykule przedstawiono stan i tendencje rozwoju rolnictwa ekologicznego w Polsce w latach 2004–2014 na tle przemian zachodzących w krajach UE. Ponadto ukazano strukturę wydatków w polskich gospodarstwach domowych, w tym poziom wydatków przeznaczonych na żywność ekologiczną, na tle krajów o największej konsumpcji na jednego mieszkańca.
Abstract	Processes occurring in the natural environment due to the implementation of industrial concepts of agricultural development led to a significant change of the production and consumption models. The approach shifted to a more balanced one, leading to the sustainable development of agriculture and rural areas based on the combination of social, environmental and economic goals. Whilst ensuring an appropriate balance between these systems, there is an attempt to achieve balance within and between generations. The focus on organic food matches well with these trends and seems particularly important, given growing awareness of consumers and their willingness to best meet their needs through the selection of products with the appropriate nutritional and health parameters. Ecological product provides an opportunity to improve the competitiveness of agriculture, especially in Europe, enabling rational management of resources by implementing the economics of sustainable development. The article presents the status and trends of development of organic farming in Poland in the years 2004–2014. In addition, the structure of expenditure in Polish households is shown, including the level of spending on organic food against the background of the countries with the highest per capita consumption.

Tytuł	Ocena informacji zawartych na etykiecie pakowanej wieprzowiny
Title	Assessment of information displayed on labels of packaged pork
Słowa kluczowe	etykieta, informacja, wieprzowina, konsument
Key words	label, information, pork, consumer
Abstrakt	Współczesny konsument, decydując się na zakup wieprzowiny, coraz częściej ze względu na własną wygodę oraz bezpieczeństwo, nabywa ją w formie pakowanej. Dokładnej wiedzy o produkcie dostarcza mu własna ocena sensoryczna mięsa związana przede wszystkim z oceną jego barwy oraz etykieta, na której producent zobowiązany jest do przekazania podstawowych, czytelnych i zrozumiałych informacji o produkcie. Jak dowodzą wyniki badania ilościowego przeprowadzonego w 2012 roku wśród 1325 konsumentów spożywających mięso wieprzowe, dla ponad ½ ogółu populacji informacje zawarte na etykiecie pakowanego mięsa wieprzowego są mało widoczne (mało czytelne) i niezrozumiałe. Stąd też konsumenci oczekują w przyszłości konkretnych zmian, a przede wszystkim związanych z umieszczaniem w widocznym miejscu informacji o terminie przydatności wieprzowiny do spożycia (29,1%), różnicowania wielkości czcionki (26,8%) oraz informacji, że mięso jest wolne od jakichkolwiek składników pochodzących z substancji modyfikowanych genetycznie (19,4%).
Abstract	Modern consumers are increasingly opting to buy pork in packaged form, for their own comfort and safety. Thorough knowledge of the product is derived from two sources. The first is the consumers’ own sensory evaluation of meat, mainly based on its color. The second is the label, on which manufacturer is obliged to provide basic, clear and understandable information about the product, according to the guidelines of the European Parliament of the Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 of the October 25, 2011, applied in Poland since 13 December 2014. According to the results of quantitative survey conducted in 2012 on 1325 consumers of pork, for more than ½ of the total population the information on the label of packaged pork are barely visible (barely legible) and incomprehensible. Hence, consumers expect in the future concrete changes. First of all, posting in a visible place the information concerning the pork shelf life (29.1%), differentiating the font size (26.8%), and the information that the meat is free of any genetically modified components (19.4%).

Tytuł	Europejska Polityka Sąsiedztwa – ewolucja i współczesne wyzwania wobec rozwoju euroregionów na zewnętrznych granicach UE (w Polsce)
Title	European Neighbourhood Policy – Evolution and Present Challenges Towards the Development of Euroregions on the EU's External Borders (in Poland)
Słowa kluczowe	Europejska Polityka Sąsiedztwa, współpraca transgraniczna, euroregiony
Key words	European Neighbourhood Policy, cross-border cooperation, euroregions
Abstrakt	Celem artykułu było przedstawienie genezy i ewolucji Europejskiej Polityki Sąsiedztwa (EPS) oraz oceny jej wpływu na rozwój euroregionów położonych na zewnętrznych granicach UE w Polsce. Realizacji celu służyła analiza literatury przedmiotu, dokumentów strategicznych UE, desk research oraz sondaż diagnostyczny z wykorzystaniem kwestionariusza ankiety skierowanej do dyrektorów sekretariatów euroregionów: Bug, Karpackiego, Puszcza Białowieska i Niemen. Wśród zakładanych przez UE efektów wdrażania EPS w odniesieniu do regionów transgranicznych można wymienić m.in.: wzmocnienie interakcji transgranicznych, poprawę jakości życia mieszkańców czy rozwój infrastruktury granicznej. W praktyce, zwłaszcza w przypadku euroregionów położonych na wschodniej granicy UE, przeważa orientacja społeczna projektów. Niskie nakłady na EPS uniemożliwiają redukcję asymetrii w dostępie do środków finansowania współpracy po zewnętrznej stronie granicy i utrudniają podejmowanie wspólnych projektów i uzyskiwanie znaczących efektów współpracy, co przyczynia się do braku akceptacji pojmowania granicy jako szansy rozwojowej.
Abstract	The aim of the article was to present the genesis and the evolution of the European Neighbourhood Policy (EPS) and the assessment of its impact on the development of euroregions located on the external borders of the EU in Poland. The implementation of the aim was based on literature analysis, strategic documents of the EU, desk research and diagnostic survey using a questionnaire addressed to the directors of the secretariats of the euroregions: Bug, Karpacki, Puszcza Białowieska, Niemen. The anticipated effects of the implementation of the EPS with respect to cross-border regions are strengthening of cross-border interactions, improving the quality of life and the development of border infrastructure. In practice, especially in the case of euroregions situated on the eastern border of the EU, social orientation of projects is predominant. Low expenditure on EPS prevents the reduction of asymmetries in access to funding of cooperation on the external side of the border and makes it difficult to undertake joint projects and obtain significant results of cooperation, which contributes to the lack of acceptance of the perception of the border as a development opportunity.

Abstrakt	Celem opracowania jest ocena pozycji konkurencyjnej państw członkowskich UE w handlu zagranicznym produktami rolno-spożywczymi w latach 2004, 2009 i 2014. Znaczenie tych badań wynika z faktu, że handel zagraniczny stanowi największą i najważniejszą część międzynarodowych stosunków gospodarczych. Analizę przeprowadzono w oparciu o następujące wskaźniki pozycji w międzynarodowej wymianie towarowej: indeks relatywnej komparatywnej przewagi eksportu (RCA), wskaźnik pokrycia importu eksportem (Lafaya) oraz wskaźnik handlu wewnątrzgałęziowego (Grubela-Lloyda). W pracy wykorzystano dane EUROSTAT. Przeprowadzone badania wykazały, że w badanych latach najwyższą pozycję konkurencyjną wśród nowych państw członkowskich UE w handlu zagranicznym produktami rolno-spożywczymi osiągała Litwa, Bułgaria, Polska i Łotwa. Spośród państw „starej 15” zdecydowanym liderem okazała się Holandia.

Abstract	In connection with the frequent occurrence of water deficit in Central Poland and the growth of the phenomena of droughts and stepping formation (and desertification in southern Europe), the studies undertaken by hydrologists and representatives of agricultural scientists should be extended and stepping formation and desertification economics should be separated in these studies. Therefore, the evaluation of the management strategies in the conditions of water deficit, undertaken in agriculture, power engineering and other sectors of the economy as well as the search of suitable sources of water management financing should be brought to the forefront as they are specific in Poland due to functioning of ecological funds.

Title
Słowa kluczowe
Key words	gluten, celiac disease, gluten-free nutrition, gluten-free diet
Abstrakt
Abstract	Recent years have witnessed a growing number of people who are gluten-intolerant and whose diet cannot contain gluten (celiac disease, allergy to gluten and gluten-intolerance). Consequently, the consumers’ interest in non-gluten diet is progressively increasing. Gluten is a mixture of prolamins and glutelins, present in the cereal grains: wheat (gliadin), rye (secalin) and barley (hordein). Wide use of gluten in the food industry results from its positive influence on products’ consistency, taste and moisture preserving. Since the only effective method of gluten-related diseases treatment is a strict gluten-free diet, this study examines the market of the gluten-free carbohydrate products. A growing desire to avoid gluten is changing the whole food industry. The task was to analyze the labelling correctness of selected nutriments suitable for gluten-intolerant people. The analysis was based on the current EU and national regulations. Besides of common EU regulations and directives dedicated to food production sector and food safety, we can find specified law regulating the composition and labelling of foodstuffs suitable for people intolerant to gluten. In total, 100 food products were subjected to the analysis, divided into 5 groups of gluten-free carbohydrate products (flours, groats and rice, pastas, snacks and sweets, breads). Summarizing our research the correct labelling of analysed products was present in all examined groups. 97% of the items were labelled by a text stating they were gluten-free products. Also, the composition of the assortment did not give rise to objections to their gluten-free characteristics. 86% of the analysed gluten-free food was produced from natural free-gluten ingredients, whereas 14% was made of low-gluten wheat ingredients. 78% of the examined items were gluten-free products, bearing both text and graphic labelling as gluten-free products. 63% out of this group were products with the AOECS (Association of European Celiac Societies) certificate for safe gluten-free foodstuff.

Słowa kluczowe
Key words	euro area, deindustrialization, labour productivity, total factor productivity
Abstrakt
Abstract	The post-industrial stage of development reached in developed countries is characterized by an increase in services' share and the progressive decline of the manufacturing share in their economies. The intensification of deindustrialization process heated up the discussion pertaining to its impact on the weakening of investment, technological progress, innovation, and a decline in labour productivity and GDP growth. The aim of the paper is to present the scale and consequences of deindustrialization in the euro area based on analysis of manufacturing and other sectors shares in the gross value added and employment in the euro area. The indicators used for the assessment of deindustrialization consequences are: labour productivity and total factor productivity (TFP) growth rates. As the outcome of conducted analysis, the author has drawn two main conclusions: 1) the decreasing importance of manufacturing limits the possibility of carrying out research projects and creating technological progress, 2) the negative TFP growth rate, declining of labour productivity growth rate in 2008-2015 and the decrease of GDP testifies to the threat of secular stagnation in the euro area.

Abstrakt
Abstract	The paper constitutes an attempt at comparison of subsidies level in relation to utilised agricultural area, labour force and value of production throughout EU-25 member states in years 2005 – 2013. The main objective of the paper was assessment of the level of inequalities in agricultural subsidies in European Union and evaluation of their potential trends. Using FADN data aggregated at country level the Gini coefficient was calculated for mentioned dimensions of subsidies level. Additionally sigma and beta convergence analysis were carried out for subsidies and productivity levels. The general conclusion from performed analysis was that famers in EU-10N should now perceive the subsidies level throughout EU quite fair in contrast to 2005, it is especially true in case subsidies per utilised agricultural area with drop of Gini coefficient from 0.23 to 0.15, that is by 35%. On the other hand the productivity levels are converging on much slower pace than subsidies level, for both measures of productivity the beta coefficients in convergence analysis where negative but not significant at standard 5% significance level.

Abstrakt
Abstract	The purpose of this paper is a comparative analysis of support provided to agriculture sector by the QUAD countries in 1986-2014. The authors examined the changes in levels and structures of this support and tried to assess it from the point of view of its impact on the QUAD economies and markets. In the analysis conducted there were used especially the OECD data and indexes measuring state support to agriculture including: Total Support Estimate, Producer Support Estimate, General Services Support Estimate and Consumer Support Estimate. In the last three decades in all the examined economies, there has been a reduction in agricultural support in relation to GDP, although no distinct change has occurred in terms of the amount of aid in absolute terms (in the US its value even increased almost twice). As regards the changes in structure of support, the most favorable tendencies took place in the European Union where the market price support (MPS), i.e. the most distorting aid to the functioning of the market mechanism, was significantly reduced. One can also positively assess the support structure in the United States where about half of the agricultural budget is earmarked to consumers. Canada has very good economic outcomes as regard the agriculture sector even though it allocates the least amount of financial resources to support agriculture in relation to GDP among all the QUAD economies. However, despite a large part of this support is in the form of general services (GSSE), the country is characterized by an unfavorable trend of increasing expenditure on price support. Throughout the period considered the most harmful support policy from the point of view of market competition was led by Japan though it has affected to a lesser extent the functioning of international agri-food markets due to the lower importance of Japanese agricultural production and exports in the world economy in comparison to the EU and the US.

Abstract	The aim of this study was to compare the transportation costs of containers being transported from Asia to Europe via Hamburg and Gdansk seaports. Three indexes are considered to be important for a logistic operator while choosing the transport route for 20 TEU containers: costs, time, and distance. This study confirms that Deepwater Container Terminal in Gdansk transports containers more effectively.

Abstract	The development of an economic activity has been considered as a driving force for economic development, creating a chance to remove the rural population outside the agricultural sector. This article presents an analysis of the development of non-agricultural activities on farms in Poland and other countries in the European Union. A spatial variation in entrepreneurial farms in the EU in the years 2005, 2007 and 2010 indicated the dominant form of non-agricultural activities.
