A united front: European Union enlargement, the common agricultural policy and polish agriculture

Kryn, Jeremy
Streamlining Poland’s farming sector must succeed in doing what a Soviet-imposed government could not: issue the fatal blow to the independent spirit and livelihood of Polish farmers, claims the author.. It argues that the common agricultural policy would harm rather than benefit certain rural areas of Poland. In the north and west the former state owned farms are holding their own In contrast the farms in the east of the country are mostly smallholdings, most of which will not benefit from any agricultural subsidies from the EU.
