Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to evaluate influence of farm specialization on the efficiency of resources management in the selected types of organic and conventional farms. The results presented in the paper indicate that organic farms are characterized by lower efficiency of resources management, but these farms have higher profitability, since they incur relatively lower production costs, achieve higher subsidies, and engage lower values of capital resources.
