Europe and the 6th largest producer of potatoes in the world and the 2nd in Europe. As regards meat production, in particular pork, as well as milk and hen eggs Poland ranks among the 15 biggest producers in the world and in Europe. Due to low profitability of agricultural production and difficulties in selling agricultural commodities produced on farms, there was a growing tendency to leave agricultural land fallow and idle. According to the General Agricultural Census conducted in 2002, the total area of arable land left fallow and idle was 2.3 million ha, which accounted for 17.6% of its total area. In 2003 the area of fallow and idle land diminished to 1.8 million ha. Reduction of plant production and disadvantageous price relationship of agricultural products result in a systematic decrease in the share of agriculture, forestry and hunting in GDP. Figure 5.

Plant production fell by 21.2%, whereas the value of animal production increased by 2.2% in the period in question. Table 1.

AGRICULTURE Between 1990 and 2003 commercially-oriented production fluctuated from 62.5% in 1990 to 50.1% in 1995 and to 64.9% in 2003. A large part of agricultural production is used for self-supply on farms and internal usage for the purposes of animal production (animal feedingstuffs). Despite a fall in the value of plant production, its share in the total production continues to be higher than that of animal production, whereas in the case of commercial production the situation is reverse.
