Areas with the permanent natural handicaps resulting in higher production costs are defined by European Union as Less-Favoured Farming Areas (LFA). The need of delimitation of LFA has been caused by the necessary adjustment of the Polish agriculture policy to the requirements of the European Union in connection with Poland's application for the membership. The main goal of the presented method is to support the Polish Ministry of Agriculture in their efforts to work out the future agricultural policy concerning LFA in accordance with the EU regulations. The conceptual model of the LFA GIS system for purpose of the agricultural management was prepared, the database was designed and established, the procedures of LFA delimitation with the use of ARC/INFO and ArcView software were elaborated and tested. The design of GIS is open and flexible. It is open for further development, for adding new data or new delimitation conditions. The flexibility of the system means that all data are easily available to the user, offering the possibility of adaptation to changes in binding legal regulations and standards.
