Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Materials and Methods
- (a)
- Identification of the role and tasks of agricultural chambers in the agricultural policy of Poland and other EU countries;
- (b)
- Recognition of the opportunities and problems encountered by farmers associated in agricultural chambers in the adaptation of their farms to the EU standards; and
- (c)
- Assessment of the impact of agricultural chambers on the development of agriculture and rural areas in terms of the transfer of knowledge and innovations.
3. Results and Discussion
3.1. Analysis of the Condition of Polish Agricultural Local Government Compared to European Local Governments
- (a)
- A public law corporation endowed with administrative and legal powers and, by virtue of law, with obligatory membership (continental model: French, German, Prussian);
- (b)
- An association form with no administrative authority which is based on a voluntary membership model. The chambers function as elite professional organizations of various interest groups (Anglo-Saxon model).
- (a)
- Agricultural chambers have not been separated from the economic self-government and operate jointly with the commercial, industrial, and craft self-government (Italian model)
- (b)
- Agricultural chambers have been separated and operate in compliance with their own legal regulations (French, German, Austrian, and Czech models).
- (a)
- insufficient legal, material, and financial instruments for their activity;
- (b)
- underestimation of the role of agricultural self-government in the context of Poland’s membership in the EU;
- (c)
- a lack of clear relationships of the agricultural self-government with state and self-government administration bodies;
- (d)
- low awareness of the farmer self-government expressed by, e.g., low voter turnout and perception of agricultural chambers as one of the demanding organizations similar to trade unions and farmers’ clubs;
- (e)
- (a)
- natural and legal persons who are agricultural taxpayers;
- (b)
- natural and legal persons paying tax on income from special sectors of agricultural production;
- (c)
- (a)
- funds allocated for the implementation of tasks commissioned by the government or local self-government administration;
- (b)
- shares in companies;
- (c)
- other assets of the chamber;
- (d)
- donations, bequests, grants, and other payments;
- (e)
- membership fees;
- (f)
- fees for services provided by the chamber;
- (g)
- income from interest on bank accounts and deposits [5].
3.2. Assessment of the Role of Agricultural Chambers in Supporting the Competitiveness of Agriculture
- (a)
- the requirements of good agricultural practices,
- (b)
- climate- and environmentally friendly practices,
- (c)
- the protection of biodiversity and counteraction of climate change,
- (d)
- the sustainable development of small farms,
- (e)
- other activities conducted in rural areas, especially innovative actions.
