COMPETITIVENESS OF POLISH ORGANIC FARMS WITH DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS OF PRODUCTION IN THE LIGHT OF FADN DATA

Abstract

The purpose of the work was to assess the effectiveness and competitiveness of Polish organic farms with different production directions. Their production potential, intensity and production costs were also presented. The information from holdings conducting Polish FADN accounting was used. It was included in the publications: Technical and economic parameters by groups of agricultural holdings participating in the Polish FADN in 2013-2015. The following methods were used: descriptive, using tabular, and comparative tables. The research covered the years 2013-2015. In the analyzed period, the direction of production influenced the efficiency and competitiveness of Polish organic farms. Farms running only crop production were characterized by higher labor productivity than farms keeping animals. From among the surveyed organic farms, only permanent crops showed full competitive ability. Farms specialized in field crops showed ability to compete. And lack of competitive ability was showed by farms keeping animals: with dairy cows, other grazing livestock and mixed.<br/><br/>
