SOCIAL FACTORS IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT (ON THE EXAMPLE OF LOWER SILESIA)

Summary/Abstract: The scientific objective of the research conducted on Lower Silesia in 2013 was to identify social factors that influence the implementation process of agricultural development in agricultural holdings. The processes of land concentration proceed very slowly and the agricultural structure is dominated by small farms with low economic viability where income from farming is not sufficient to maintain the family, and surely does not provide any possibilities for development of such farms. To increase the productivity and efficiency of agriculture, it is necessary and essential to speed up the absorption of progress in agricultural holdings of 5 to 50 ha in area.
