Programmes supporting agricultural and rural development co–financed by the EU implemented in Poland in the programming periods 2004–2006 and 2007– 2013 included a series of measures that have a direct or indirect impact on the competitiveness of the Polish agriculture. Analysis of the goals of these measures, nature of these instruments and categories of beneficiaries eligible for support enable naming several mechanisms of the programmes’ impact on the competitiveness of the agricultural sector. These include both direct and indirect support to individual farms, as well as support for surrounding of the agriculture and the instruments for structural changes at the level of the entire sector.
