Advanced Farmers and their Role in the Socio-economical Development of Village in Poland
Izydor Adamski
Sažetak
The author analyses the findings of the survey carried out in four villages
in the region Plock in Poland, during 1961 and 1965. The survey was conducted by
the Committee for Research of Regions under Industrialization of the Polish
Academy of Science. So called advanced farms among investigated farms are those
ones which operate more rationally, produce more for market, possess more
modern means of production. This reflects on their standard. Their housing
situation is better (more space per one member, higher quality of houses, etc.).
Their household is better equiped with various home appliances, but still not
so much as one would expect to.
Many data are given on knowledge and culture of the advanced farmers
(general education, technical knowledge, substription of newspapers, periodicals,
etc. home libraries). Advanced farmers participate more intensively in the social
life of the village. Index of social activity for all farmers amounts to 0.42 and for
the advanced farmers 0.67 (calculated by dividing the number of members of each
category of farm with the number of members of social organizations). Advanced
farmers are strongly connected with the activity of s. c. agricultural circles and
regularly appear as users of various services they offer.
In author’s opinion advanced farmers should play the central role in the
process of improvement of agriculture, introduction of innovations, general and
technological training of farmers, intensification of social and cultural life in
village.
