Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to identify changes in the level of enrolment in higher agricultural education in Poland compared with other European Union countries in the years 2013–2017. An additional aspect of study was the causal relationship between the number of people undertaking higher agricultural education and the effectiveness of the functioning of agriculture in a given country. The dynamics ratio was used to present the existing tendencies. Additionally, admissions for individual types of studies were examined and the differences in values from individual countries were presented. Spearman’s coefficient of rank correlation was used to analyze the causative relationship. Poland belongs to a group with relatively low levels of higher agricultural studies. In addition, the number of persons undertaking education at agricultural universities is closely connected with the efficiency of agriculture in a given European Union country.
