Title	Agroecotourism development in the Republic of Belarus
Słowa kluczowe
Key words	agroecotourism, development, international tourist trips, Neman region, Augustov canal
Abstrakt
Abstract	Agroecotourism is becoming the most dynamical branch of the world tourist industry. The Republic of Belarus has inexhaustible potential for the development of agroecotourism. It promotes a steady development of rural regions, raises well-being of its inhabitants by attracting investments, creates modern social infrastructure and new work places, contributes to the achievement of social and cultural purposes. Agroecotourism is considered to be an important component of a successful realization of the ‘State Program for the Revival and Development of the Countryside in the Republic of Belarus for 2005-2010’. The problem is that the agrotouristic enterprises have not enough money to increase the scale of realization of basic concepts and models stipulated by the National Program. Maintaining and developing the natural and human potential of Belarus will require making the agroecotourism a profitable branch of the agrarian sector of economy.

Słowa kluczowe
Key words	debt, liabilities, Latvian farms, Polish farms, comparative analysis
Abstrakt
Abstract	The use of borrowed capital in Latvian agricultural holdings of different economic size and type of farming is analyzed, as well as a comparative analysis with Polish agricultural holdings is performed, defining essential specificities of financing activities with equity or loan in each state. The liabilities burden in Latvian field crop and dairy farms is calculated and discussed in detail. For the assessment ratio of the statistical significance of differences between Latvian and Polish agricultural holdings the debt-to-equity and total liabilities per ESU, per 1 ha UAA and 1 LU, a statistical testing is carried out and main conclusions about an impact of the type of farming, the economic size and the chronological factor are formulated.

Tytuł	Domestic support for Ukrainian agriculture under the conditions of world financial crisis
Title	Domestic support for Ukrainian agriculture under the conditions of world financial crisis
Słowa kluczowe
Key words	domestic support, agrarian policy, agriculture, Ukraine
Abstrakt
Abstract	In the last years Ukraine has allocated considerable, with respect to their load on the budget, financial resources for agricultural support. However the significant increases of budgetary support do not substantially influence the effectiveness indices nor agricultural yields. Such information testifies to an imperfect nature of the internal support mechanism of Ukrainian agriculture. As the result, the domestic support did not become an effective stimulus for a production quality increase nor for a rise in the stock breeding production. In 2008 Ukraine gathered the biggest grain harvest. Increased production did not improve the financial results of agriculture and did not produce a stable and dynamic branch development because of the negative influence of world finance crises. Unbalanced supply and demand for agricultural production, low buying ability of inhabitants, lack of branch effective mechanism of domestic support caused complications of price situation in the domestic food market

Tytuł	Human and social capital in agricultural and rural development (Polish experiences)
Title	Human and social capital in agricultural and rural development (Polish experiences)
Słowa kluczowe
Key words	human and social capital, development of agriculture and rural areas, health
Abstrakt
Abstract	Authors define and explain the meaning of two concepts, namely human and social capital and their influence on the socio-economic progress in agriculture and rural areas. The presented studies and analyses point to the link between the growing role of these two factors and the general socio-economic progress. A major part of the paper is devoted to analysing the past and current state of human and social capital in Poland, focusing on their deficiencies and the need to improve their quality. In conclusion the authors note that the significant inflow of financial means after the the Polisj accession to the EU as well as structural and administrative changes will not bring in full the possible benefits in the future unless there is an improvement in quality and an increase of creative participation of the human and social capital. The health aspect is also explored in the paper as a crucial element influencing human capital in the Polish rural areas.

Słowa kluczowe
Key words	wheat yield, variability, production risk.
Abstrakt
Abstract	The paper presents an analysis of the wheat yields variability in voivodeships of Poland. The main aim of the study is to present several possible indicators for the crop variability in the context of production risk. It is found that ignoring the long-term yield trends leads to a serious overestimation of production risk.

Title	Territorial differences of climate change impact on Romanian crop production
Słowa kluczowe
Key words	climate change, crop yields, regional differences
Abstrakt
Abstract	Effects of the climate change appear in several fields of the economy and agriculture can be considered as one of the most affected among them. In a country, where almost 10% of the total GDP is produced by the agricultural sector and more than 30% of the total work force is employed in this field, these changes may have severe economic impacts. As in Romania almost 65% of the agricultural production is represented by vegetal production, we concentrate our investigations on this agricultural sector. Our aim is to present, basing on econometric modeling, how the climate changes will affect the Romanian crop production in the next 20 years, highlighting the territorial differences which appear between the Romanian NUTS2 development regions. This paper presents some of the first results of the FP6 research project “CLAVIER – Climate Change and Variability: Impact on Central and Eastern Europe”, contract no. 037013 (2006-2009).

Tytuł	Influence of macro-economic growth, CAP reforms and biofuel policy on the Polish agri-food sector in 2007–2020
Title	Influence of macro-economic growth, CAP reforms and biofuel policy on the Polish agri-food sector in 2007–2020
Słowa kluczowe
Key words	agri-food products, CAP, Biofuel Directive, agricultural trade liberalization, CGE modeling
Abstrakt
Abstract	This paper presents the possible development scenario of the Polish agricultural sector till 2020. It also assesses the impact of macroeconomic growth, CAP reforms and worldwide policies towards the agriculture on this development. The scenario is build using an extended version of the Global Trade Analysis Project model GTAP which is a computable general equilibrium model of the world economy. The analysis shows that the growth of Polish agri-food sector observed after accession to the European Union will be prolonged in the future and will lead to an increase of agrifood sector incomes. However, it is expected that the positive trade balance in agri-food products will decrease significantly in consequence of the world trade liberalization and the EU policy stimulating biofuels production
