Liberalisation of economic relations leaves its mark on agriculture. Raising competition determines a necessity of position improvement. The paper aims to present the changes in selected structures affecting production capacities of farms. In the paper the agricultural land resources, area structure of farms and socio-economic faeces of farmers were analysed. The main empirical material was the Central Statistical Office data. The research results indicate that due to the area of agricultural land, the Polish agriculture has a potential to be a significant producer. Farmers’ attributes and positive structural changes reveal an improvement of agriculture competitive capabilities. However,a scattered agrarian structure is still a feature of agriculture. On the supply side, the acceleration of structural changes in agriculture, especially by fostering land concentration, is a prerequisite for meeting competitive requirements. Therefore, an introduction of instruments supporting small farms liquidation, as well as the diversification of rural population economic activity are essential.
