Title	Genetically Modified Crops’ Technology and its Awareness among Smallholder Farmers in Nigeria
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.

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	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
Słowa kluczowe	tax regulation, special tax regimes, land rent, agrarian sector, agriculture, foreign experience
Key words
Abstrakt	The article discusses the shortcomings of tax policy in the agrarian sector of the economy of Ukraine, whichhas created non-competitive conditions for small farms. Large agricultural enterprises in Ukraine use theexisting special tax regime as an optimization of tax liabilities. This has led to such negative economic,social and environmental consequences as the development of landlands, the deterioration of agriculturallandscapes, the increase in export-oriented production, the growth of unemployment in the village and themigration of the rural population. While small farms, without state support, provide the population with basicfoodstuffs. The purpose of the article is evidence of the use of a special tax regime only for small farms, basedon an analysis of the special tax treatment regime in Polish agriculture and an analysis of the differential rentmethodology laid down in the basis of a special tax regime, as well as the development of practical recommendationsfor Ukraine.

Title
Słowa kluczowe	common agricultural policy, central and eastern europe, pro-investment mechanisms
Key words
Abstrakt	The aim of this paper is to identify the role and importance of pro-investment mechanisms within the CommonAgricultural Policy in the reproduction of farm assets in countries of Central and Eastern Europe. Theexperimental material comprised unpublished microdata of farms originating from the FADN database of theEuropean Commission (data source: EU-FADN – DG AGRI). The time frame covered the years 2004–2015.Among all the farms selected for analyses only those ensuring data continuity throughout the entire investigatedperiod were used in the study. In each of the studied countries farms were divided into two groups: thegroup of beneficiaries of CAP pro-investment funds and the control group. For each farm the value of fixedassets was determined (excluding the value of land) and next the mean value for each group was calculatedin an individual country. The study showed that in most investigated countries both farms being and thosenot being beneficiaries of CAP pro-investment mechanisms are capable of reproducing their fixed assets;nevertheless, it is the farms receiving financial support for their investments that show a capacity to increasethe value of their fixed assets.

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.

Słowa kluczowe	rynek rolny, rynek lokalny, żywność lokalna, zrównoważona konsumpcja
Key words	agricultural market, local market, local food, sustainable consumption
Abstrakt	Celem artykułu była charakterystyka pojęcia i genezy żywności lokalnej oraz dyskusja nad jej znaczeniem w kontekście zrównoważonej konsumpcji. Wskazano, iż rozwinięcie rynku żywności lokalnej oparte jest na tradycji wytwarzania i spożywania produktów pochodzących z własnego gospodarstwa, stanowi efekt rozwoju metod produkcji, przechowalnictwa, transportu, dystrybucji i współpracy środowisk lokalnych. Zaprezentowano dane dotyczące rynku żywności lokalnej oraz przeprowadzono dyskusję na temat definicji żywności lokalnej. Przedstawiono producentów żywności lokalnej, jako autentycznych „strażników” systemów jej produkcji, mogących wnieść istotny wkład w popularyzację modelu zrównoważonej konsumpcji. Potwierdzono tezę o istotnym znaczeniu produktów lokalnych w realizacji idei zrównoważonej konsumpcji. Stwierdzono, że rynek żywności lokalnej stanowi szerokie pole działań i wymaga dalszych prac, następnie zasygnalizowane przyszłe kierunki badań. Artykuł ma charakter przeglądowy, a prowadząc analizę, dokonano analizy danych wtórnych, w tym także własnych badań naukowych w tym zakresie.
Abstract	The aim of the paper was to characterize the concept and origin of local food and to discuss its meaning in the context of the sustainable consumption idea. The paper points that the development of the local food market is based on the tradition of production and consumption of food products that come from private farms and is the result of the development of production methods, as well as methods of storage, transport, distribution and cooperation between local market subjects. The paper presents data concerning the local food market and discusses the definition of local food. It shows local food producers as authentic “guardians” of local food production systems who can significantly contribute to the popularization of the sustainable consumption model. Moreover, it confirms the thesis about the importance of local products in the implementation of the idea of sustainable consumption. The local food market turns out to be a wide field of activity and requires further scientific work. The paper proposes some future research directions. It is a review that includes analysis on the basis of some secondary data, including also the author’s own scientific research in this field.

Słowa kluczowe	environment, life cycle analysis, impact category indicator, compound feed, feed mill, Poland
Key words	environment, life cycle analysis, impact category indicator, compound feed, feed mill, Poland
Abstrakt	In recent years, the importance of environmental threats associated with intensive livestock production has been emphasized. Compound feeds make up a part of the animal production chain. A complete assessment of the animal production system with regard to environmental criteria is therefore impossible without considering the environmental consequences of feed production. The goal of this research is to fill the gap in an environmental assessment of production processes of compound feeds in Poland. The study presents an assessment of production impacts of bovine compound feeds according to Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) methodology. The data for analysis were based on the set of information obtained from the feed milling plant located in a commercial agricultural enterprise in the Wielkopolska region in the years 2015-2016. An inventory table of inputs was prepared in relation to the functional unit of 1 ton of compound feeds and two phases of production processes, i.e. upstream and core. For average compound feed, the impact category indicators for the global warming potential, acidification, eutrophication, photochemical ozone formation, consumption of mineral resources, fossil fuel resources and the emission of the respirable particles were respectively: 605.9 kg CO2 eq, 8.73 kg SO2 eq, 3.32 kg PO4 eq, 0.73 kg ethylene eq, 3.4x10-3 kg antimony eq, 5141.1 MJ and 2.25 kg PM2.5 eq. The upstream phase had the greatest effect on investigated impacts, while the core processes phase had a relatively low impact on environmental threats. It is recommended to broaden the scope of the research for a larger group of feed milling plants with more complex manufacturing processes, with a more branched supply structure and a wide range of compound feeds for different animal types. The obtained data can be a valuable source base in prospective analyses of the life cycle of various animal products in Poland.

Title	Ewaluacja systemu ubezpieczenia upraw w Polsce
Słowa kluczowe	crop insurance, farms, budget subsidies
Key words	ubezpieczenie upraw, gospodarstwa rolne, dotacje budżetowe
Abstrakt	Crop insurance is one way to reduce the risk in agricultural production. The subsidy system used since 2006 aims to increase the area of crops insured against the risk of weather anomalies. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the functioning of the crop insurance system subsidized by the State Treasury. The results indicate that this system is not effective. Up to 2018, insurance covered about 3 million ha of crops, compared to about 7 million ha required by law. The sum of payments in the years 2008–2018 amounted to PLN 1.7 billion. The risks most often insured by farmers include: frosts and negative effects of wintering and periodically hail. The attractiveness of subsidized crop insurance is to be increased by increasing the subsidies for 2019 and 2020 to PLN 1.2 and 1.4 billion, respectively. The insufficient area of currently insured crops means that the premiums obtained by insurance companies are smaller than the claims paid, which means that the insurance contracts become deficit and can be withdrawn from the insurers’ offer.
Abstract	Ubezpieczenia upraw są jednym ze sposobów ograniczenia ryzyka występującego w produkcji rolnej. System dopłat stosowany od 2006 roku ma na celu zwiększenie obszaru upraw ubezpieczonych od ryzyka związanego z anomaliami pogodowymi. Celem niniejszego opracowania jest ocena funkcjonowania systemu ubezpieczenia upraw dotowanych przez Skarb Państwa. Wyniki badania wskazują, że system ten nie jest efektywny. Do 2018 roku ubezpieczeniem obejmowano około 3 mln ha upraw, w porównaniu do około 7 mln ha ustawowo wymaganych. Suma dopłat w latach 2008–2018 wyniosła 1,7 mld zł. Do najczęściej ubezpieczanych przez rolników rodzajów ryzyka należą przymrozki i ujemne skutki przezimowania oraz okresowo grad. Zwiększeniu atrakcyjności dotowanych ubezpieczeń upraw ma służyć zwiększenie dotacji na lata 2019 i 2020 do odpowiednio 1,2 i 1,4 mld zł. Niewystarczająca powierzchnia aktualnie ubezpieczonych upraw sprawia, że pozyskiwane przez zakłady ubezpieczeń składki są mniejsze od wypłacanych odszkodowań, co powoduje, że ubezpieczenia te stają się deficytowe i mogą zostać wycofywane z oferty ubezpieczycieli.

Title	THE CONSEQUENCES OF USING DIFFERENT VARIANTS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF REDISTRIBUTIVE PAYMENT – A CASE STUDY OF POLAND
Słowa kluczowe	Wspólna Polityka Rolna, płatności bezpośrednie, płatność redystrybucyjna, Polska
Key words	Common Agricultural Policy, direct payments, redistributive payment, Poland
Abstrakt	W niniejszym opracowaniu, w ramach badań diagnostycznych, dokonano pomiaru aktualnego stopnia koncentracji pomocy dystrybuowanej w ramach systemu wsparcia bezpośredniego dla rolników w Polsce oraz przedstawiono jego zróżnicowanie regionalne. Z kolei w ramach badań symulacyjnych dokonano kwantyfikacji skutków redystrybucyjnych stosowania – w różnych wariantach – instrumentu wyrównującego przyznawane kwoty wsparcia między gospodarstwami. Może to stanowić podstawę oceny ex ante alternatywnych opcji wdrożeniowych płatności redystrybucyjnej. Badania doprowadziły m.in. do wyznaczenia przedziałów obszarowych gospodarstw korzystających na stosowaniu płatności redystrybucyjnej – w obecnym kształcie oraz w przykładowych wariantach alternatywnych. W części końcowej artykułu sformułowano kilka rekomendacji w zakresie projektowania płatności redystrybucyjnej na poziomie krajowym w zależności od celów, które mają być osiągane za pomocą tego instrumentu.
Abstract	The article describes a diagnostic study measuring the degree of concentration of the aid which is currently distributed under the direct support system for farmers in Poland; it also presents the regional differentiation in aid concentration. The author conducted a simulation test quantifying the redistributive effects of applying various variants of an instrument equalising the amounts of support granted to farms. This can make the basis for an ex-ante assessment of alternative options of the implementation of redistributive payment. The research enabled the identification of ranges of the areas of farms which benefit from the current shape of redistributive payment and which may benefit from alternative variants given as examples. The final part of the article contains several recommendations on how to design redistributive payment at a national level, depending on the goals to be achieved with this instrument.

Tytuł	Zróżnicowanie czynników produkcji w gospodarstwach rolnych specjalizujących się w chowie bydła mlecznego w regionach FADN w Polsce w latach 2006-2017 na tle UE13
Title	Differentiation of Production Factors in Agricultural Farms Specializing in Dairy Cattle in FADN Regions in Poland in the Years 2006-2017 vis-à-vis the EU13
Słowa kluczowe	czynniki produkcji, mleko, kraje UE
Key words	production factors, milk, EU countries
Abstrakt	W pracy analizie poddano nakłady pracy ogółem, powierzchnię użytków rolnych i wartość majątku trwałego w gospodarstwach specjalizujących się w chowie bydła mlecznego i prowadzących rachunkowość rolną FADN. Ponadto przedstawiono zmiany badanych cech dla gospodarstw w regionach FADN UE13. Z badań wynika, że powierzchnia UR w gospodarstwach prowadzących rachunkowość rolną FADN i zajmujących się chowem bydła mlecznego uległa zwiększeniu w badanym okresie. Podobne tendencje wzrostowe zaobserwowano w przypadku wartości majątku trwałego. Z badań wynika, że najwyższą wartość majątku trwałego odnotowano w 2014 roku w regionie FADN Pomorze i Mazury spośród czterech regionów Polski i była na poziomie 295,4 tys. EUR na gospodarstwo rolne specjalizujące się w chowie bydła mlecznego. Z kolei najniższy poziom wartości aktywów trwałych 46,3 tys. EUR wystąpił w 2006 roku w regionie FADN Małopolska i Pogórze.
Abstract	The paper analyzes total labor input, arable land area and the value of fixed assets on farms specializing in dairy cattle farming and conducting agricultural accounting by FADN. In addition, changes of the examined features for farms in FADN UE13 regions were presented. The research shows that the area of UAA on farms conducting agricultural accounting of FADN and dealing with dairy cattle farming increased during the examined period. Similar upward trends were observed in the case of fixed assets. The research shows that the highest value of fixed assets was recorded in 2014 in the FADN region of Pomerania and Mazury among four Polish regions and was at the level of 295.4 thousand. EUR per farm specializing in dairy farming. In turn, the lowest level of fixed assets value 46.3 thous. EUR occurred in 2006 in the FADN region of Lesser Poland and Pogórze.

Key words	land reform, land relations, agricultural land market, moratorium, land lease
Abstrakt	The analysis of urgent problems of land relations transformation and of forming agricultural land market in Ukraine is carried out in the article. The general characteristic of main reform stages is given. The reasons of lasting action of the moratorium on agricultural land sale-purchase being the chief obstacle for complete market development are defined. Supporters' and opponents' arguments about moratorium canceling, population estimation of advantages and threats of land circulation are described. The results of the research project "Farmers' land expectation" made by the authors are given. The project purpose was studying population rational expectations concerning the directions of further land reform development and its results. The research was conducted on the local level in rural surrounding, which is characterized by high competition level among agrarian business subjects at agricultural land lease market. Landowners' and other interested group people' opinions concerning lease cost, potential sale price, inclination towards land sale, possibilities of farmers' common farming on their own land, leaseholders' participation in social and economic development of rural areas are examined. High level of farmers' uncertainty about land market indicators because of knowledge lack and low level of land reform information support is established.
