The current situation and predicted socio-economic, technological and
ecological changes, which under the influence of scientific progress, implemented
Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and globalied food markets will happen in Polish
agriculture and its infrastructure by 2030 are presented in the paper. Owing to the progressive
integration with the economy and markets of the European Union (EU), further
intensified polarization processes and modernisation of farms is perceived accompanied
by restructuring of agriculture, agri-food processing industries, production
services, rural supply chains and the other infrastructure in rural areas.
The future model of agriculture and agrotechnology is shaping, which is
characterized by arable area (AL) diminishing to 12M ha, a decreasing number of
family commercial farms and smaller agricultural holdings to 400 thousand, diminishing
livestock population and number of farms specializing in commercial
production of milk, meat, eggs but also sugar beets, potatoes, vegetable and fruit.
Crop yield and animal productivity will increase, so despite diminishing AL and
livestock population, both the global production and final output of Polish agriculture
will be growing annually by between 0.5 and 1.0%. Quantitative and
qualitative increase in plant and livestock production will be taking place accompanied
by farms and agricultural enterprises switching to the system of sustainable
agriculture (including organic and precision farming) integrated with multifunctional
rural development and protection of the natural environment in rural areas.
Various forms of mechanization and energy supplies for agricultural production
will be used aiming at diminishing its cumulated energy-intensity and lowering
unit costs of raw material and food product acquisition. The share of agriculture and
rural areas in acquisition and consumption of renewable energy resources (RER) will
be increasing. Further progress in agriculture will be dependant on modernization and
all-around development of agricultural and rural infrastructure.
