Logistics supplying farms with production inputs
Logistics supplying farms with production inputs

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the study was to illustrate the logistics of supplying selected farms with things of production in the form of synthetic fertilizers, plant protection chemicals, as well as spare parts for machines and fuel. The research was conducted in 2019 on a group of 50 agricultural producers running farms in the Radomsko district in the Łódzkie Voivodeship. The realized research shows that most of the checked farms purchase fertilizers on an annual basis, and plant protection products twice a year or more often. The decisive factor in the purchase of specific means of production is the price as a first one, but non-price factors also gain importance. In most of the farms the direct distribution is developing, where farmers purchase individual means of production from sales representatives on farms.
