Summary/Abstract: The aim of the study was to compare efficiency results of agricultural activity in Poland. Efficiency was calculated using various models of aggregate indexes of total productivity TFP (Total Factor Productivity). High-efficiency of Polish agriculture was observed in Pomerania and Masuria regions and the lowest in Malopolska and Pogórze. The results obtained indicate that in some regional results there are significant differences of agricultural efficiency. The high diversity was encountered between Hicks-Moorsteen and Fare-Primont models and slightly lower between Malmquist and Fare-Primont models.
