The objective of the article is to recognize factors, which between 2004 and 2006 had an impact on agri-environmental implementation process in Poland in the context of the programme changes for the period 2007-2013. The research is based on the data of the Agency for Restructuring and Modernisation of Agriculture, the Central Statistical Office, the Main Trade Quality of Agricultural-Food Products Inspectorate, and results of own researches. The survey-using questionnaire was carried out in 2007 between 85 advisers from advisory centres, institutions and non-governmental organisations and private enterprises dealing with agricultural advisory. The analysis showed that the inclination of farmers to implement agri-environmental packages was to a large extent determined by the amount of financial support and the requirements within variants of individual agri-environmental packages. The main reason for farmers to join the agri-environmental programme was financial benefit. The increase of the possibilities in which the programme can affect natural environment depends not only on the increase of means for individual undertakings, but also on the growth of the level of farmers' ecological awareness, as well as the existence of an efficient system of monitoring both positive and negative impact of farming on the environment.
