Summary/Abstract: The existing legal instruments in the area of trade in agricultural and food products in Poland were considered by the Polish legislature to be insufficient, which was an impetus for legislative work finalized by the adoption of the act on counteracting the unfair use of contractual advantage in the trade in agricultural and food products on 15 December 2016. The purpose of the research described in the article was to determine the normative dimension of the concept of unfair use of contractual advantage and the assessment of admissibility de lege lata for farmers to rely on protection under the provisions of the aforementioned Act of 2016. The analyses have led to the conclusion that the ban on practices of unfair use of contractual advantage should be seen as a new, not yet crystallized, contract rule applicable to concluding contracts specified in this act, including contracts with farmers.
