Journal Title: Roczniki Naukowe Stowarzyszenia Ekonomistów Rolnictwa i Agrobiznesu - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 3
Abstract
The article presents the issue of innovation in the members of two producer groups (X producers of geese and ducks and Y producers of pigs) in relation to the farms. The source of the material was an interview questionnaire carried out in 2015. The research used a descriptive and comparative method. Farmers of the characterized groups ran farms where animal production was dominant, and therefore the innovations they implemented mostly involved animal production. More than half of respondents in this department increased animal stock. The most important vehicle for innovation for farmers was WODR training and courses. The innovations being introduced were mainly financed from own funds. More than half of the farmers surveyed claimed that innovations influenced the modernization of their farms, which had a positive impact on their economic performance and market competitiveness.<br/><br/>
