The aim of the study was assessment of efficiency and productivity of farms in the Lublin province inthe years 2014-2016. The analysis was based on the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model oriented oninputs and Malmquist indices with its components. The calculations were made for medium-sized field anddairy farms that continuously collected data for the FADN system during the period under consideration.In our research all efficiency indicators for dairy farms were larger than for field crop farms. In the years2014-2016, the average technical efficiency of dairy farms was 0.752, which means that in those farms itis possible to reduce inputs on average by 25% and the value of production will remain at the same level.In the case of field crop farms, inputs should be limited by 33%. The applied decomposition of calculatedMalmquist indices allowed to define what factors influenced changes in productivity.
