Abstract

In July 2016 economic situation of Polish farms continued improving. The IRG SGH agricultural indicator (IRGAGR) increased by 7.0 points, from -14.0 pts to -7.0 pts. Again, it is above the long-run average which accounts to -11.4 pts. The rise in the indicator was due to increases in the smoothed money income indicator (by 9.1 pts, from -19.2 to -10.1 pts) and the confidence indicator (by 2.7 pts, from -3.5 to -0.8 pts). Economic situation improved in all groups of farms except for those propagating plants. The indicator increased the highest for the smallest farms (by 10.9 pts), located in Western Macroregion (by 10.8 pts), growing non-perennial crops (by 10.0 pts), managed by young farmers (by 10.0 pts), and primarily educated (by 8.7 pts).
