AGRICULTURAL ADVISORY – TRANSFORMATION EXPERIENCES AND NEW CHALLENGES

Journal Title: Roczniki Naukowe Stowarzyszenia Ekonomistów Rolnictwa i Agrobiznesu - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 2

Abstract

The aim of this article is to identify the challenges facing public advisory services, resulting from the expectations of farmers and rural inhabitants and to present the most important steps which should be taken to address these challenges. The main problem faced by Polish farmers is primarily the improvement of competitiveness that can be achieved by increasing (economical, environmental and social) efficiency. Agricultural advisory centers must work closely with science and agricultural education to effectively support farmers. In view of the new challenges facing advisory services, there is a need for an integrated agricultural information system. The development of such a system is necessary for the advisors to move from providing information and supporting farmers in raising EU funds to actions aimed at improving production efficiency.<br/><br/>
