Abstract:

The aim of the research was to identify the features of agricultural households in Central Pomerania at risk of poverty. Three variables for measuring the poverty of these units were established. The source of the data were the results of a survey conducted in the second quarter of 2020 on a group of 361 agricultural households in Central Pomerania (Poland). The study took into account the households of farmers running commercial agricultural holdings covered by agricultural accounting research in the European Farm Accountancy Data Network (Polish FADN). The study used a two-tailed equality test for column proportions. For each significant pair, the category with the smaller column proportion appears together with the category with the larger column proportion. The significance level adopted in the study is 0.05. Tests were adjusted for all pairwise comparisons within each internal subtable using the Bonferroni correction.
